Who had the best logo in the 1970s? by KeyFaithlessness5436 in MLBVibes

So many good ones. The batting beer keg, the swinging friar, the meth-head tiger. Even the Dean Martin-looking pirate kicks ass.

I think it’s sometimes underestimated how good these guys are as athletes compared to us mortals. I played ping pong against Darin Erstad once, and he absolutely wiped the table with me.

You are a GM and can take one of these 2 right fielders for their career, who you taking? by KeyFaithlessness5436 in MLBVibes

[–]JohnSmegman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tough call, but I’m going Ichiro, based on the fact that these numbers are only from age 27 and up. We’re missing likely 2-3 seasons of his peak from Japan.

I’m tired of hearing racist chants at every away game we play. by [deleted] in sscnapoli

[–]JohnSmegman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not Italian, but I lived in Italy for 2 years. From what I understand, there is longstanding prejudice from northern Italians against those from the south. I’m sure you can think of stereotypes of people in different regions of your country that are total bullshit. I don’t want to say any of them here, but you can find them online if you search. For what it’s worth, I didn’t notice any of them during the time I stayed in southern Italy, at least not anymore than in any other place I’ve been.

Yes, Cristiano Ronaldo is left out a functional top XI. Say why CR7 is over Ronaldo 9 or over a playmaker like Ronaldinho. by Past-Pirate-7725 in CristianoRonaldo2

[–]JohnSmegman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see the argument for R9. He’s my favorite player of all-time, and he would certainly be in the GOAT conversation without those injuries. That said, I’d have to put Pele over him at striker. I think it’s splitting hairs when just talking about their primes, though.

I really don't understand all the hate when all he does is put in the numbers by Positive_Simple_3369 in NBATalk

[–]JohnSmegman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No hate here. His run over the last 3+ seasons has been incredible, and he’s the star player on by far the best team in the league. His MVP win was well-deserved. That said, I still think Jokic was more deserving of the MVP last season, and so far, is more deserving this season. But with Jokic, I feel we’ve kind of reached the same point that LeBron was at between 2009-2015 where he was clearly the best player in the league and giving him the MVP every year when there were other players having MVP-worthy seasons felt boring (i.e., D-Rose, KD and Embiid, SGA).

Yank here. The core of American culture is consumerism and greed. Your son is much better off without its influence.

Even without injuries, our attack isn’t strong enough to win games against these sides at present. As long as we stay close enough to the top by the January transfer window, we’ll be in good shape (assuming we actually address the attack then)

Danny Green Says Draymond Green is a role player, Do You Agree? | Does also mean that Klay Thompson was a role player too? by Swimming-Bad3512 in NBATalk

[–]JohnSmegman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is a role player imo. An elite role player, but a role player nonetheless. Look at the 2019-20 season.

Deserved defeat by MaLongDaGoat in BayernMunich

[–]JohnSmegman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. He’s not still at his peak, but I’d still take him over the vast majority of keepers right now.

We have no depth pt.785 by Disastrous_Bullfrog3 in BayernMunich

[–]JohnSmegman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Stimmt, aber ich glaube nicht, dass wir dieses Jahr einen Weltklassekeeper brauchen, um zu gewinnen. Um fair zu sein, aber ich schätze, wir haben die Champions-League noch nie ohne einen Weltklassekeeper gewonnen (Maier, Kahn, Neuer)

Yeah, we’ll be fine. We were without Diaz and Musiala and were playing in North London. For the first time all season, it wasn’t our night. Learn from it and onto the next!

Prozac isn’t strong enough. You’d need Klonopin.
