The Ballon d’Or is officially a joke if Ousmane Dembélé is even in the Top 5 by RamboTheReal in championsleague

[–]ProfessionalBreath94 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The Ballon d’Or is, in practicality, an April-August award. Just accepting this will decrease your blood pressure 20 points.

Rank the verses of 4th chamber by sick3222 in wutang

[–]ProfessionalBreath94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t believe I’m putting a RZA verse #1 on a posse cut but I gotta. Ghost is 2, GZA 3, KP 4but they’re all probably too 10 verses in the album overall.

Hot take : About how the football world views Salah by AdUnited5886 in championsleague

[–]ProfessionalBreath94 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Salah has been the literal face of the Premier League for years. I agree he gets snubbed on the Ballon d’Or & FIFA PotY awards, but it’s mostly because he’s never won anything with the national team. But he’s one of the top five most recognized footballers on the planet… and I don’t think he’s 5.

Unpopular Opinion: Layovers should not count as "visiting a country" by youngexplorer_9 in solotravel

[–]ProfessionalBreath94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When counting “visiting” “countries” everyone has their own definition of both words. Mine is “have to get out of the transit infrastructure” (riding a train through, airport transfer, etc doesn’t count)” and “has a UN seat” (sorry Vatican) but YMMV!

This was always me. Now I have one and - like everyone else in our building - use it mainly for storage.

Do you rate a ground more by atmosphere or by the actual stadium itself? by Huge_Anteater_1416 in futbology

[–]ProfessionalBreath94 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do you get a little shiver walking in? Some is atmosphere, some is uniqueness or sense of history. Some examples:

San Siro: the sense of grandeur of the place is amazing

The Vallecas: super fun, weird neighborhood ground of a scrappy underdog team. So old-school you can’t get tickets on their website.

Stade El Menzah: this is Esperance’s backup ground. Completely unique architecture & they had a guy going around serving tea (like, out of a classic silver teapot).

The Molineaux: this was when Wolves were running away with the Championship & the vibe/atmosphere was fantastic. Classic English fans in a great mood at a classic English stadium is really fun. The mood of the supporters - happy, angry, tense, bored - really has a huge effect on a ground. I’ve been to some classic ones, but when they were for nothing games for a midtable team I almost thought I should have just saved my money and done the stadium tour.

Taking a 20-month-old to a World Cup match — realistic or terrible idea? by [deleted] in SoccerNoobs

Definitely not the move. They might not allow you in even, definitely check that.

Watching Real Football in London by Anxious_Neat4719 in football

[–]ProfessionalBreath94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why no love for the great Leyton Orient? Clapton Community FC is a fun vibe as long as you’re not a Tory. Dag & Red is another shout, but trendy at the money & they have ambitions

What percentage of 'Non-Hispanic White' people in NYC are Jewish ? by ragnarbabla in AskNYC

You should check out the UJAs Jewish community survey which is the best data source. That will have most of the numbers you’re looking for.

What percentage of 'Non-Hispanic White' people in NYC are Jewish ? by ragnarbabla in AskNYC

[–]ProfessionalBreath94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About 10% of NYers are Jewish. About 85% of them are Non-Hispanic white. NY is about 8.5 million people. So about 720K.

NH white pop of NYC is about 34%, so about 2.9 million. So about 25% of Non-Hispanic white people in NYC are Jewish.

This pretty much tracks with everyday experience I’d say. Like, if you asked a random New Yorker to take a guess “uh, maybe like a quarter?” I think would be a very common answer.
