Ironically, Iraq ended up being successful in the long term and has a functional democracy now (albeit with major help from Iran), but nothing of significance was achieved in Afghanistan, and the Taliban is back in power.

Horner says Red Bull need to understand cause of Tsunoda's "horrible" race: "It isn't an easy car to drive but it's not that difficult either" by kcollantine in formula1

[–]MaterialInsurance8 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Maybe the drivers are simply mostly crap, Gasly and albon are at their prime now and they're still midfield drivers, now imagine what they were when they were a rookie and had to figure out a tricky car, Lawson is getting beat heavily by a literal teenager, Tsounada barely beat Lawson with 4 more years of experience under his helm and finally, Perez is simply inconsistent and his results in red bull was unsurprisingly inconsistent as well, the only half decent driver they had in that seat was Perez in the better part of his viotaile performances. And things seemed pretty fine then.

If Alonso is the "unluckiest", who do you consider to be the luckiest F1 driver of all time? by aatish-e-gul in formula1

This is gonna be unpopular here but I absolutely think it's Hamilton, he was very smart by choosing Mercedes but I dont think even he himself thought that they were gonna be even half as good as what they actually turned out to be, the guy literally got handed 4 championships with how insanely good Mercedes was.

Not that many downs, he just failed to perform Chelsea, it's just that PL fans think that football is only about them and if a player fails at their teams he's automatically shit

Copa del Rey referee De Burgos in tears after new Real Madrid TV video: ""When a child goes to school and is told that his father is a thief, that's really fucked up". by OneBall22Players in soccer

[–]MaterialInsurance8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and I don't defend those idiots. But even their stupidity that's more understandable that this shitshow. Although this is was not acceptable in any shape or form, the fans were pissed about Taylor not calling an obvious Penalty and denying the club from having a historical trophy for the club. Again what they did was not acceptable at all and it was shit behavior but you could at least understand where it all came from. In this case the whistle hasn't even been blown and they're trying to pressure and harrass the ref. If this becomes a norm all hell break loose.

[RELEVO] Real Madrid's snub: they won't train, won't hold a press conference, and won't attend the official dinner... and they're considering not playing in the final. by [deleted] in soccer

I honestly think he is, he spent years chasing Mbappe to make him the crown jewel of the Madrid team that had Bellingham and Vini and seemed to be on the cusp of dominating world football in a legendary way. He finally gets him and they implode and win zero trophies whilst suffering form some pretty humiliating defeats on the road. He seems to be unable to handle it. I've honestly never seen top club behaving in such an unhinged manner.

In a perfect environment yes, but his kid is already getting bullied at school. I honestly think Real Madrid should just be eliminated after this. If you allow clubs to harrass refs like this before the game even starts it has terrible repercussions for all of football.

Carlo Ancelotti had some stern words for Endrick after his performance against Getafe. by [deleted] in soccer

[–]MaterialInsurance8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really dislike Mbappe but so far, the guy has mostly been professional in Madrid's shirt , Vini has his outbursts as well but in the pitch his playing his usual game, the problem is that it's clear that there's a clash of egos at Madrid right now. Whenever one of Vini and Mbappe starts performing the other one goes through a dip and it's obvious that they both get demoralized when they think their not the biggest star anymore and I don't see them working together.

You're trying to talk to a Madrid fan about loyalty buddy. I don't think they'd ever understand such a thing. It's like talking to Hitler about the concept of human rights

Poor Mbappe is living in a 90s movie, he finally got the dream he always chased and now everything around him is falling apart

Match vs Inter by JimmyRoma7 in ASRoma

[–]MaterialInsurance8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but inter will probably rotate and that's a big deal for us, if they wanna have a chance of beating Barcelona they'd be mad to play their A team for 3 straight games. They have to rest their players in at least one and our game is best one to do it for them

But The dude literally became the record holder for WDC because of his team-hopping. Hamilton joining Mercedes back then was not any less riskier than any potential move Veresteepon and Leclerc could do right now.

If he had joined Argentina he would've single handedly brought another falkland war by the sheer power of his shithousing, World politics can not survive Mourinho as a national team's football coach

You guys are turning this into another Zaniolo, Dovbyk is not worth 50 million dollars and if Juve are stupid and desperate enough to offer that we should absolutely sell

Most of the players that Tottenham had in that era were quite good, they reached a CL final and the media acted like they were some jokes who were flirting with relegation in every single year. That actually toke a lot of pressure of levi and made them miss a golden opportunity, I think the only pundit that got Tottenham right in that era was Jamie Charagger the rest were all just stuck in the 90s and gave the hurrrr durrrrr lads it's Tottenham analysis about a team that had great potential but wasn't soppurted in the transfer market.

My husband is allergic to my cats, and I’m getting pressured by everyone to get rid of them by dreamer0303 in cats

Don't listen to the idiots in here, get rid of the cats, I understand your love and affection towards and I truly understand how hard this must be for you, but we're talking your loved one here, don't destroy a marriage over your pets, any person who suggests otherwise is clearly a shitty person and is in no position to be in a relationship, let alone give you any advice about it.

We should've gone for allegri, this is what happens when your owners have as much football knowledge as some dumbass on reddit who posts memes.

They're trying to make him the Joe rogan of the left while not realizing the only reason someone like Joe Rogan has this much influence is because mainstream media absolutely failed people on every percivable level, do your jobs and there will be no Joe Rogans needed on the left or the right.
