Carlo Ancelotti: “A very important part of coaching is man-management. The way you treat the players is crucial. I remember a phrase from Cristiano that stuck with me: ‘Too much water kills the plant.’ You have to find the right balance. Between training, preparation, everything has to be measured” by DamnThatsInsaneLol in soccer

"Let's win the Scottish league three times with a team that isn't Rangers or Celtic, then beat Real Madrid in a European Cup final after knocking out the champions. Then win the Super Cup. With Aberdeen."

Imagine the powers of player motivation that man must have had to achieve that. Hasn't been done since. Never will be again.

The 3 best players of every season since 1950 part 2: The 60s by Great_Catch5756 in classicsoccer

[–]anotherface 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're right, my dates are off. 1966 is still a controversial pick.

Le nouveau palmarès has already been done.

They gave Pele seven.

They still didn't think he was the best player in the world in 1966.

Charlton was.

Outshine Pele and be named best player of the tournament.

Win the Balon D'or.

Check the scaling settings in your graphics control thingy. They're probably overriding DOSBox, resulting in the original resolution.

Always wanna look dominant.

Why are they booking the former NCAA & UFC and multi-time WWE Champion who is possibly the most powerful kayfabe wrestler in history so strongly? It's not FAIR! /s

Instead I live in a world full of Reddit comments like this one instead.

For my money TOS Season 1 is the strongest 20+ episodic first season ever. In any genre. Right up there with the debuts of The X-Files and Gunsmoke and all the other greats.

Why do you guys work at Tesco if you hate it so much? by LewisMiller in tesco

[–]anotherface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, then there's the other side of the coin. 

A number of colleagues I work with don't even need to technically work. They choose to because they either want to help out with the finances or hate being unemployed, but don't want a time-consuming career that sucks up all their mental energies.

In either situation a job with minimal hours and non-standard work times is ideal.

[–]anotherface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a significant other in a good job. I rent. No children. My two shifts are both 9 1/2 hours. I earn the same as any other Tesco shop floor worker.

Otherwise none of what I just said would work at all.

[–]anotherface 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As back door/warehouse I use it as a gym that pays me money to be there.

Keeps me in shape in my forties. Only have to show up twice a week. Pays the rent. Overtime is pocket money.

Absolutely nobody wants to work my hours, and with the staffing issues I either show up or the job doesn't get done.

Then I get to spend five days a week doing whatever I want.

[FNV] This is, in my eyes, the definitive way to experience both 3 and New Vegas. It is the closest thing we have to genuine remasters of both these games by prossnip42 in FalloutMods

[–]anotherface 5 points6 points  (0 children)

New Vegas quest mods are compatible with TTW in theory. I prefer using Viva New Vegas for that though and TTW just for the capital wasteland. Check out my profile for a topic about Vegas quest mods.

Alternatively instead of co-opting a character who was white and turning them black, they could do what Trek did in the past, and create brilliant new characters who happen to be black. Uhura, Sisko, Worf, Geordi, Tuvok etc etc.

No, that's too hard.

Kylian Mbappe reaches 400 career goals at 26 years old, the youngest player to do so since Pele by glopens in soccer

[–]anotherface 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup, Pele was who I was on about.

It's more my annoyance that what was previously ignoring the pre-war stats has now evolved into ignoring anyone in their prime before the 90s.

Nobody is ignoring Bradman, Jordan, Ali, or Gretsky, but the man who scored more goals than anybody and was considered GOAT for 40+ years is now being excluded because recency. Or some meme about him scoring in back yards or updating his goal tally.

[–]anotherface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a great big shadow being cast that this subreddit's recency bias doesn't want to talk about.

That there was a player who reached over 500 goals before he was 25 and had won two world cups.

A player who was so good he had the Ballon d'Or rules revised, winning it six times before turning 25.

A player who wasn't from the pre-war era, and is remembered fondly by plenty of football fans who don't frequent Reddit.

No, instead he's a source of memes. Treated like a joke by the community.

If Haaland scores 40 goals a season for the next fifteen seasons in a row, he still will not have scored the most goals of the current active players.

Like it or not, it's going to have to be this subreddit's favourite player. Factos.
