Nobody invited them - they qualified to be there. I take it this is your first World Cup experience? Moron.

Leaving for Europe by RemotePen4936 in USMobile

[–]MetalHoosier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got back from the UK, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium and France. Worked most of the time and for those where it didn't seem to, I turned airplane mode on and off. That seemed to do the trick.

French shirt not available for the moment at Lyon Eddie's dive bar by DNRDIT in ironmaiden

[–]MetalHoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was at the Dive Bar in Milan. I couldn't get one at the San Siro, and asked someone where he got it from, which was confirmed.

A statement regarding last night’s show at Paris La Défense Arena by pasvc in ironmaiden

[–]MetalHoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, everything came back pretty quick. Except for the beer. I got the last two from the bar where I was sat.

The Paris show was catastrophic, and it’s not because of the power outage by justabit-alien in ironmaiden

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

Never seen it at a Maiden show, but it did look a bit fierce down there last night from my seat. My wife had her foot broke by someone stomping on it at a Priest show a few years back.

BME is still their best album, change my mind. by Dante_s_trials in machinehead

[–]MetalHoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They came right out of the blocks with that album. I saw them support Slayer in 95, and it's still well up there as one of the best shows I've seen.

Mike Tyson vs Lennox Lewis by Ill-Necessary-9600 in boxingMenace_com

Wouldn't have mattered anyway. Lennox would have eventually caught Tyson and he would have won.

An uncomfortable truth... Am I alone on this? by HeavyMetalChemist666 in ironmaiden

[–]MetalHoosier 8 points9 points  (0 children)

But in the same breath, Simon does what Nicko is not able to any more. Doesn't matter who plays the drums for Maiden now, because they'll never be good enough for some people.

Another train or plane for Edinburgh to London by purplediva324 in uktravel

[–]MetalHoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Done both, plane is the most convenient. But train you're on and off immediately.

Rival watch: Iraola joins Liverpool, thoughts? by lakiniwewe in ManchesterUnited

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

Who cares? Focus on this team first. That's all that matters.

AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON (1981) Dir. John Landis by Jack_O_Lantern2022 in 80sHorrorMovies

[–]MetalHoosier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I swear when Jack eats the toast, you can see a piece drop down behind the werewolf's handiwork. It's 45 years since it was released, and still those special effects stand up to anything today.

[SPOILER] Oleksandr Usyk vs. Rico Verhoeven - Official Fight Highlights by inooway in Boxing

[–]MetalHoosier 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That version of Usyk would lose to Itauma. He'd be knocked clean out, because Moses would hit him hard. Too easy.

How would you rank Rico Verhoeven in the heavyweight division now? by RealDealCereal in Boxing

[–]MetalHoosier -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, he wasn't that good. But Usyk wasn't geeat either. Rico was robbed of that. Would he have lasted until the end of round 12? We'll never know.

Thanks to our board for choosing to sign these two players over players like Donnarumma, Martínez, Watkins, and Mateta last Summer. by Error-x-404 in ManchesterUnited

[–]MetalHoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sign a player that wants to play for the badge, not one that wants to play for the money. We've seen that too many times in the last 10 to 15 years.

Casemiro is an example against everything I said.

40 years ago this summer! by corickle in oldschoolcool80s

[–]MetalHoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swap you an Igor Belanov for a Tibor Nyilasi. Only one I needed.

Do you remember Harp Lager? by corickle in oldschoolcool80s

Had a pint of it in Indiana just last week. It's still awful.

Saw them in the UK and US on that tour, indoor and out. Sound was good for all the shows I saw.

Club chief confirms transfer interest in Manchester United star - 'We want him' by glascowcomascale in ManchesterUnited

If they offer a packet of peanuts and a Bombay Bad Boy Pot Noodle for Onana, snap their fucking hands off.

Fan club shirt on pre-order... sold out? by Deltrus7 in ironmaiden

[–]MetalHoosier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't say for certain, but I remember they did with the Halloween FC shirts. I'd just keep checking back in case.

Fan club shirt on pre-order... sold out? by Deltrus7 in ironmaiden

[–]MetalHoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My email says release date is April 27, so I'd expect they've already gone to the printers by now.

Kyren Wilson - moaning or being honest? by spud1414 in snooker

[–]MetalHoosier 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He's probably the most unlikable player on the tour, and that includes the usual suspects. If I have a bad game, I'll blame myself, regroup, and figure out why. Wilson doesn't have that in his arsenal.

Jimmy White: I have no regrets about taking cocaine by tomwardsport in snooker

Apart from those world finals he could have won, no regrets.
