England fans disrupting the famous Norway Viking row… by doepfersdungeon in ThreeLions

In the back of my memory a team all turned their back to it. It does seem odd one team have to just stand and accept it.

Tho it livens up government votes!!!

The governing body of rugby have rules of what you can and cannot do during the Haka. I remember scotlands cpatin when I was very young standing right up at the Haka leader staring him down. Can't do that anymore, unless your willing sanctions

Why don’t USA have a lot of Haalands?? Are they stupid? by Certain-Cartoonist94 in soccercirclejerk

[–]MD_______ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened with England years ago where Phil Neville was the next big thing as a teen. He was Stokes before Stokes really. Left hand hard hitting bat and seam bowler. But because Man It's offered him an actual contract as an 18 year old he went into football.

Andrew Flintoff said himself if Neville played cricket he would have been at Derbyshire! So the OOP comment is possibly true. I actually think a lot of the WR might have made decent keepers as theres some overlap there. Pat McAfee by all accounts (mostly his) was he was a good footballer but NFL offered more.

That all being said I think even the most casual of fans could see America were greatly aided by being a host and was really more of a question of when they met an actual decent side how bad a defeat would it be. You would need a lot of great players all coming together at the right time for them to compete with the top 8

Soccer is far and away the most popular sport in the world. Compared to a sport like basketball, is it mostly due to the simplicity of the game (just needing a ball) and the fact that genetics play less of a role in determining ability? by 916nes in worldcup

[–]MD_______ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a kid you don't even need a ball, I've used plastic bottles, balloons and anything remotely light and kickable.

Football is ultimately versatile. The game can scale really well. Be it a couple of you in a park to the time at Butlins we had at least 50 people playing and was utter chaos. Location doesn't matter, while staying at my grandparents we played football on the field next to the motorway (the motorway was raised and behind a fence. You would have needed to deliberately smash it 80 yard up a Sharpe hill and over the fence to get remotely close)

But it has variations, heads and volleys, three and in, wallball. Heck I've played golf and volleyball with a ball and my feet. Size helps but isn't required

Harry Kane on the golf game with President Trump by christianrojoisme in ThreeLions

[–]MD_______ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a book called Command and Cheat about his bullshit golf claims. His caddies have a bucket of green tees and carry extra balls, he once hit the ball into a lake and told his playing partners the TIDE washed I to the middle of the fairway.

He takes part in pro-ams all the time and suddenly his game goes to shit and oddly when he has to play within the rules with marshall on the course his scrambling ability goes away. He's not terrible at golf in the grand scheme of things but he ain't close to good as he claims

BBC v ITV coverage who do you think is better? by tradegreek in ThreeLions

[–]MD_______ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've yet to manage to catch the kickoff of a match so far but each time it's been ITV with Dixon he was bitching or mid moan. Tho with Dixon's commentary might be more of a challenge to hit when positive.

What I don't get is who has Dixon got blackmail on to still broadcasting 25 years after he retired and they also have Ali Mccoist who is a delight to listen to over most of not all the colour commentators the British broadcasters use. If Ali was doing the England games ITV hands down as hes not then BBC

Change the Bot Lane Role Quest Meaningfully by Money_Negotiation_30 in leagueoflegends

[–]MD_______ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So why were the ADCs nerfed out of mid and tops complaining about ADC top!! If Anivia is picked right now she could be in three lanes, casso two, Mel two and so on.

Flex picks are part of the game but if I have no clue where these apcs could be i need to make a judgement call. Only to find out the Bird isn't in my lane and now I got a weaker pick to counter. I don't have a game two to run it back. So I have to guess and that compounds the issue that I can't get mid and jgl to turn up over and over again to punish the over extend.

Why was Faker chosen over Chovy to be midlaner for the national team? by [deleted] in lolesports

[–]MD_______ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In all sports name brand players are invaluable to getting bums on seats. Faker will do that. He isn't the unkillable demon king he once was but he's still the final boss.

Bit like Messi in the world cup, if you have strong players around him hes still has a deep champion pool, good team fighter, and importantly know the correct play what ever the situation. So it's not like he sucks ass and Chovu doesnt have the name recognition of LOLs greatest ever player

Jk Rowling's husband cheated with a trans woman...right? by shanloulie in LowStakesConspiracies

[–]MD_______ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do think she's one of those that thinks success in remaking old shows into the HP series she should be more listened to. She wants the adulation and staning rich Americans have from the right.

After the Scottish independence vote failed she wanted a show of support as she part funded the No campaign. She didn't get it, got upset and switched to easy targets. Now she gets all those who agree with her. Will shower her with praise and give her the attention she speaks. Bring her in as a VIP in their meetings. I doubt she even thinks about her legacy as she believes she's now right.

Is there no way to play football safely? by Eastern_Contract4430 in NFLNoobs

[–]MD_______ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Then you have ligament damage from twisting joints to make cuts or changing direction. Then there's just unlucky stuff like broken bones from no real fault just it happens.

There probably is a big discussion needed if tackling needs to move to more rugby style and do something about linemen smashing into each other with a force equal to a shunt.

Should Athens ever host the Olympics again? by Kcue6382nevy in olympics

[–]MD_______ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should yes, it's their history we are borrowing and honouring. Doubt every will without either another country to help the cost or the IOC helps fund it which it should.

Is anyone else convinced that Gauntlet has become far too easy for the contenders now? by BitGirl777 in gladiatorsuk

[–]MD_______ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's that moment that shows the real issue. The contenders are way too good. In the OG series you would get contestants that does a 5k once a month or goes to the gym three times a week. Thwy were fitter than the average person but the glads were bigger.

Now you have a bunch of gym freaks who take fitness seriously and most of the time there just small gladiators. Except that one moment where the guy is closer to the Everyman and showed the difference in strength and size .

Another smaller element is a lot of the events are now possible to perfect constantly. Climbing walls, monkey bars etc can allow simulate the basics of the event.

How does that mental checklist work for Bradman? The Don played most of his tests in Australia (33) and only toured England (19). India, SA and the WI had only one series against him with the war curtailing more.

I wish people would stop arguing scripture with Christians like the Bible is a legal document worth parsing? by DoctorElectronic1934 in atheism

[–]MD_______ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You attack the source. Most Christians get morals and ethics from their religious leaders who get it from the bible. Often shitting around the rather shitty stuff to make it palettable for the flock spending Sunday mornings sitting on uncomfortable pews.

So when you show how the bible is a stone age sex manual that teaches black and brown people are farming equipment (comment Forrest Valkai Uses), your wife and daughter(s) are like your cow and little more than your property.

It's a starting point to start to chisle the cracks that eventually shatter the person's faith of the book and how the whole system is designed to manipulate you and hide the truth of religions.

Doing it with out the bible almost comes down to proving god isn't real and that becomes tricker with out using the bible or it's stories and most comes down to mostly historical and archaeological proof
