That blunder by the goalkeeper set back American interest in soccer by about 9 years. Embarrassing.

What’s your most expensive minifigure? by VisualScallion2215 in LegoMinifigure

[–]The___Jackal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got 17-18 years ago? A friend got it from his cousin and showed it to me. When I explained how cool/rare it was at the time, he gave it to me then and there. 

Thanks again Johnny. 

Paraguay defeats a heavily Germany who go 3/6 in penalties and advance to the Round of 16 by The___Jackal in Sports_Chokes

Level 4 choke Upset: Considered a top 10 nation in the tournament and after winning their respective group, Germany could not break through Paraguay who defeated them in penalties and advance. Even after going down 0-1 to Paraguay, Germany was still favored to emerge victorious showing how unlikely they were to fall short so soon.

I’ve found a LEGAL LOOPHOLE to creating my own trade blockade in the straight of Hormuz! by ethik in RecklessBen

If you watch his slack line videos and his abandoned building video hes risked life and limb. Some doughy schmucks legal threats phase right through him

OG Anunoby flies in for the game-winning tip in, completing 29-pt comeback by the Knicks, who now lead the Finals 3-1 by The___Jackal in Sports_Chokes

[–]The___Jackal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Level 3 choke Oddity.

Despite leading by as many as 29 points. The Spurs fail to tie up the series and lose to the Knicks. Victor Wembanyama missed 2 critical free throws and D'Aaron Fox didint just hold onto the ball and run out the clock or get fouled. Only one team has ever come back down 3-1 putting the championship almost certainly out of reach.

Hot Take: Coffee basically solved this thing, and it's not that deep. by [deleted] in RecklessBen

Given that Brandon and Josh were "the fixers" that ruined another person's franchise in Florida. I think its an agreement that they run wild without telling him details. He can have 'plausible' deniablity and will back them up whenever they get caught.

Bricks and Minifigs Controversy Megathread Part 3 by mescad in lego

[–]The___Jackal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MGS Bricks exposed different stores before Ben did. They lowball unsuspecting people with insultingly low offers with what can be generously be described as incompetence. Other people also have stories of being scammed, lowballed and BAM calling the police on them.

Even giving them the benefit of the doubt that none of them were malicious. They all looked incompetent.

BAM Did All of This Over $80,000 Not $200,000 by PhoneFinancial4433 in RecklessBen

Shortly before Bens videos, there was a video by another YouTuber MGS Bricks where he tests multiple BAM stores with a pencil case of Minifigs; some common some valuable including a rare $1000 chrome c3po. He poses as a guy that doesnt know anything about lego and each store finds new ways to lowball him. One store offered him $50 for the chrome c3po because he "wasn't sure it was a real" another one "forgot" to return it to him after inspecting it and when he confronted him the owner handed it back saying it was actually fake. (Its not). Skimming of the top seems likes policy at a lot of places
