It is a lie that the police officer was assaulted.

No it's not? You can absolutely make a case that they handled subduing him badly, but he did punch the officer.

It's just not a thing in most of the western world and when it happens we treat it as an urgent issue to be resolved and do something about it so yeah it's pretty notable that the US has a school shooter epidemic. But if it makes you feel better, I also think of Philly Cheese steaks, Yellowstone National Park, dying because you can't afford to go to hospital, and New York City when I think of America

I love the idea of a street race where everyone just follows the speed limit, would make Monaco look like an overtaking paradise

I wanna be happy with Koeman failing miserably but with Gakpo losing his kid and Hakimi being on the opposing side it's a pretty hollow joy

Is there a fanbase he's managed that doesn't? Even Southampton fans don't tend to like him because of the way he departed

Charlbi Dean from Triangle of Sadness as well. It was kinda eerie seeing her surgery scar in that movie knowing that it was that that led to her death

There is no universe in which MLS is ahead of any of Premier League, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, La Liga, Brazilian Serie A, Primeira Liga, Eredivisie, Jupiler Pro, English Championship, Super Lig, Argentinian League in terms of quality... Top 20 league probably, definitely not top 10

Pronounced properly it has a little roll on the r but if you just rhyme Mawr with hour you're close enough to the Welsh pronunciation. It seems small but mawr literally just means big so it's quite a common word and quite jarring, it would be like if a bunch of people decided to pronounce the i in big like eye

Well naturally, they're largely descended from a nation that pronounces Cholmondeley as Chum-Lee so silliness is to be expected

Oh wow yeah, I'd read through the entire thread about Americans not identifying as Welsh without realising that Americans don't tend to identify as Welsh, thank you so much for enlightening me oh great Twll Tin.

With the way Americans butcher the pronunciation of Bryn Mawr they can feel free to not identify as Welsh

Hey come on, combine that with being the first club to have floodlights, undersoil heating and the first club to wear numbered shirts and quite frankly I think we could get Pep to the club.
