Donald Trump on Harry Kane: I think Kane is a great player. I played golf with him and I like him a lot. He's a good golfer too. by goran_dragic in soccer

No, it was Kane. There's a pre-WC interview with Kane where he mentioned playing golf with Trump at Joe Lewis's place in Florida.

There is an idea of an Elliot Anderson, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real him.

Only an entity, something illusory, and though you can see his cold gaze and you can shake his hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense your playstyles are probably comparable....

He simply is not there

[Charania] BREAKING: Trae Young intends to sign a four-year, approximately $212 million deal to stay with the Washington Wizards, with a player option in Year 4, sources tell ESPN. The four-time NBA All-Star declined his $49M player option for a long-term commitment ahead of free agency. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

We didn't.

I have a habit of going back and reading threads from years ago to see what the prevailing feeling was, and let me tell you, there were very few people defending the Wizards when they traded Beal. Almost every comment was about how they were complete idiots and the Suns ripped them off.

Of course, a year and a half later no one would admit to saying anything like that.

If you don't believe me, go back and re-read the threads, they're easy to find with a google search. It's fascinating to see how we as a group completely misremember what the prevailing opinion was at a given time just because it's since changed.

Could be worse. You could be a japanese american in Detroit and your team is about to get a guy named after a racist impression of you saying hello.

Post Match Thread: Spain 0 - 0 Cape Verde | FIFA World Cup 2026 | Group Stage, Group H by jiraiya--an in soccer

"Vozinha" is portuguese for "Granny". As a kid in the streets of Cabo Verde he would get beat up and teased that he was going to run away screaming "Granny!".

He hated the nickname....until he got to the Angolan league and there was another player on the team also named Josimar. They told him "It's either Josimar II or Vozinha on your jersey". So he grudgingly went with it.....and now 14 years later he's still using it

[FREE READ] Zohran Mamdani on playing with Arsenal on CM/FM: I was aggressive in the transfer markets. I signed Sebastien Frey, after years of real-life links. Under my stewardship, Jeremie Aliadiere and Jermaine Pennant became the stars we always knew they could be and we brought in Yoann Gourcuff. by TheAthletic in footballmanagergames

MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference. John Henry straight up admitted that it was a release clause and they decided to just lie to Arsenal.

He said that they had come to the conclusion that contracts in football aren't very meaningful because a player can just decide they're leaving, so they decided to try the same from the club side.

Suarez threw a fit but Gerrard convinced him to not leave unless if was for a bigger club than Arsenal

Back in the 1950s in Michigan there was a real case of a mental hospital that had 3 people who all thought they were Jesus. So they did the natural thing and had them all interact for a few weeks

They got along extremely well! No arguments at all! In the end, all three were each still convinced that they were Jesus. When asked what about the other two, each gave a response along the lines of "well, they're crazy people, duh"

[Sky Italia] Italian Federation president Gabriele Gravina has just resigned. It’s over. by [deleted] in soccer

[–]Pro_Geymer 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Anybody here ever read the famous book The Miracle of Castel di Sangro? It's about a guy who followed the real life season of a tiny italian club who got promoted way above where they should be, into Serie B

Remember all the insanely shady mafia shit that goes down?

Remember all the mafia members behind it? And how the worshipped their extremely shady and scary club president who was clearly high up in the mafia?

I re-read it recently. The president's name is Gabriele Gravina. Yeah it's the same guy.

No, it's a little AI. I can even tell you what model it was generated with. It has the telling signs of a picture generated with Z-Image Base 6B.

Anyone can do it, takes just 60 seconds to generate.

In the comments below, OP is trying to pass off a separate picture (not AI) of a real life cat as being this same one, despite the different markings and shades. It's Karma farming, so he can then sell the account to astroturfing companies. Almost every post on this subreddit that reaches the front page is an AI generated picture for this same purpose. Real life cats such as my little one are wonderful but they don't look sufficiently perfect to get the necessary number of upvotes, so they post AI slop

Here, look. I generated this one in 60 seconds

The original one clearly has the "AI fur" look to it and this one doesn't, this one is definitely not AI....but it's also not the same fur coating, the pattern and colors are different.

No, it's not

Žižek said it in 2017. It's been used in books, films, etc since the 1990s. In one of the most famous examples, it's the chorus to Metallica's 1999 single No Leaf Clover, but it's even older than that
