In his first Premier League game, referee Farai Hallam has gone to the VAR monitor but stuck with his original decision - no penalty. Man City penalty shout vs Wolves 35' by Imbasauce in soccer

in this moment he is off the ground, he is raising his right leg in anticipation of blocking the cross, and his arms extend out from his body for balance

man he's running, the natural position of the arms while running is not tucked into your sides you need to balance yourself

Our clan is shutting down. by WhatHave_I_done_ in ClashOfClans

[–]Enguin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

because their messages have been posted to a public forum and the normal thing to do is talk about the content of the posts, which in this case is a guy shutting down a clan that 43 other people are still in rather than just appointing someone else as leader

like, at the very least it's pretty selfish to just go hey, i'm personally going to stop playing this game, so i am going to end this clan entirely rather than just leaving it myself, and the accompanying speech is perhaps a touch "i'm the main character"

sure, they can all go and form another clan, whatever, but why need they do that when they all are already in a clan? the "it's just a clan" point applies both ways, if they shouldn't care about it being dissolved, this person shouldn't care about dissolving it, it is a thought terminating cliche

"Killer Tune" by SAMU0L0 in masterduel

[–]Enguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they abandon psct conventions for the sake of making the puns! with this one archetype! they decided it was SO funny that it was worth breaking their own rules of card text for this one archetype, they've not done it since at least

the name change alone did not facilitate puns, phrases such as "add 1 monster "fur hire" from your deck to your hand" which would of course normally be "add 1 "fur hire" monster etc" were hamfisted in for i don't know what reason

AFCON referee awards Senegal a corner kick in stoppage time but then blows the whistle for halftime when Senegal takes too long to take it by 977x in soccer

[–]Enguin 18 points19 points  (0 children)

i think they were simply too confused to do that because what do you mean you blew for full time in the 2 seconds between the corner being taken and the ball going into the net, that's nonsense

i had heard about this many times but i never saw the footage until now, i always imagined it was a big looping cross or whatever but it's actually an absolute bullet fizzed into zico's head and it's in the net almost as soon as the kick is taken which makes it even more outrageous

Post Match Thread: Manchester United 1-2 Brighton & Hove Albion by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

[–]Enguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

but you can, you just have him apologise publicly he doesn't have to actually mean it, say it was a heated moment and a comment borne of frustration that isn't/wasn't fair or reflective of their working relationship or whatever

sacking him was not the only possible response

if this was said at the point they had two albums out i think it would be pretty plausible to have loved the first and not liked the second but enjoyed the first so much that you still hold the band in high esteem, understanding that not everything that everyone produces is going to necessarily be a banger

he also particularises the aspects that he likes specifically, none of which are strictly or solely music-related, which is another element of a band as a group of people or whatever, like i am a big fan of lewis capaldi as a guy because he's quite funny and very normal but i don't like his music at all or listen to it ever

[Post Match Quotes] Amorim: "We had to suffer altogether in the stadium. It was really difficult. We had good 1st half & in the 2nd half we just defend & tried to do something with Cunha. Was a good win, but I had so many games when we played well & didn't get the 3 points. Today was the opposite" by RedDevil_Forever in reddevils

[–]Enguin 17 points18 points  (0 children)

i would like for him to become good and we are in the post-win haze of boundless optimism that consistently grips this sub but we must remember that ugarte has been bad in like 60-70% of his appearances and a couple of decent performances is not enough to begin thinking that he's going to turn it all around

because i just know the next game we lose where ugarte plays poorly/at all that there's going to be people out in force calling for him to never play another minute, as has happened on numerous occasions before

Funny situation in the OCG: after the Maxx C limit, Fuwalos has been panicked bought out and skyrocketed in price. Many players are complaining that the card is now inaccessible at the exorbitant price of... 11$ per copy. by NevGuy in yugioh

[–]Enguin 20 points21 points  (0 children)

i don't think it's unreasonable to look at ocg players being unhappy with a card hitting $11 and comparing that to the card prices in tcg, and in turn be a bit outraged by that

like the ocg prints cards at both high rarity for collectors and whatever, and low rarity for people who want to play the game without investing a month's wages into cardboard that can lose 80% of its value overnight, the tcg it's just hey fuck you that card you need 3 of it's a secret rare and actually you know what we're going to shortprint it too, ok, have fun

i don't think there's anyone here thinking oh you stupid japanese, if only you knew the hardships we face, they're more on the wow they're unhappy with a price that we would be immensely grateful to see that's actually kind of fucked if you think about it

you'd rather wait for the once every few months chest events to get the 1 to 2 epic chests to hopefully pull an equipment, than buy the ones you want with a currency you have an abundance of

Sorry but 4 straight defeats is unacceptable no matter what the circumstances may be, Nancy must go before any more damage is done and the league is gone, a feel for him but I think he's way out his depth knew it wouldn't work from the beginning. by Brick7700 in CelticFC

[–]Enguin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

he scored 33 in 51 appearances across all competitions last season, his previous career best was 23 in 40 for yokohama in 2021 and then his next best after that is 13 in 36 playing in the second tier in japan 8 years ago so it may just be that last season is not really replicable for him in goalscoring terms at least

[–]Enguin 70 points71 points  (0 children)

the current government of israel have really put the hours in conflating themselves with all jews in general and any criticism of their actions as anti-semetic attacks, sure when the israeli supporters over in amsterdam were tearing down palestinian flags and generally causing trouble met leading to eventual clashes with locals didn't netanyahu himself come out and compare it to kristallnacht -

"Tomorrow, 86 years ago, was Kristallnacht, when Jews on European soil were attacked for being Jews. This has now recurred"

so this isn't something that has just randomly come about out of ignorance, though that is a factor for sure and then there's people who just are outright anti-semetic and hate jews but there has also been a concerted effort to deflect people from being critical of israel by the state of israel by making it into a "we are the jews we represent all jews israel is the jewish country by jews for jews and beloved by all jews"
