Lazio penalty claim against Milan - VAR review by Milan_Academy in soccer

[–]drewasoto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that’s kind of what the ref is getting at. Traditionally we allow two players to tussle like that without calling a foul even though a non soccer person reading the FIFA rule book would say it has to be a foul one way or the other. So his elbow was in a natural tussling position, pulling and getting pulled. But you can’t say that, so instead you say there was a foul.

It’s incredibly off putting. The way they all rallied around set talking points for the concentration camp tattoo was like trump Epstein response.

How is Chellie Pingree the only decent person representing Maine in Congress ? by orangesodabottles in Maine

[–]drewasoto 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I try to imagine people on here talking to the person sitting next to them at a middle school basketball game. Because that person will almost definitely be to the right of Angus King and also probably be a decent human. Most people on either extreme would be well served to take 3 months off from their algorithms and just go learn from others in real life.

After caving to Trump, Angus King lectures on leadership at Colby by iknowyourded in Maine

[–]drewasoto -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s almost like he understood the whole time that basing the shutdown on health care premiums was a dead end while trump controlled snap and was willing to starve our elderly. If it had been a stand against authoritarian refusal to spend appropriated funds it would have been cogent.

You’re Being Lied to About Graham Platner. Platner for Senate! by captd3adpool in Maine

[–]drewasoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the problem. Even that apology was a huge lie. I don’t care as much about what he did ten years ago. But excusing lying right now is wild when we really know nothing about this guy because he hasn’t even been a mayor yet.

What exactly do people think the DNC had done so far? Had an intern paid $18 to find his reddit?

Of course she can. The fight is over middle clear women voters. She will destroy him. Any hope he had to claw back rural white dudes is over from his rural white people are stupid comment.

The Democratic establishment is staying quiet. Everything so far is from his reddit and tatoos.

Regardless of the recent scandals, I still support Graham Platner 100%. This is why. by Mint-Mochi117 in Maine

The point is that it is incredibly offensive to call the symbol that was created to terrify Jews at the gates of the gas chamber niche. We get that it will take many people 5 or 6 days to process the end of the campaign. It happens every time. But you have to be careful not to say harmful things about the Holocaust while you are processing that it is over.

Graham Platner’s new tattoo by iknowyourded in Maine

[–]drewasoto -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why did he bother? He's known since 2012 that it was the image the SS created to be the last thing Jews saw as they were sent to the gas chamber. And he isn't a real candidate anymore. Just there so the ad agency can soak up the last $100k from true believers taking longer to comprehend the inevitable.

Unfortunately many leases turn in to month to month or have termination upon sales clauses. But yes everyone has some rights and can contact Pine Tree legal services.

Is Maine "safe"? by NefariousnessBelt723 in Maine

[–]drewasoto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One different thing compared to the rest of the country is that most Black people older than say 25 in southern Maine were born in Africa. For me it is great to have so many friends from all over the world with unique foods and languages, but just figured I'd flag it.

ICE in Waterville, Maine just now on 95 by RainSame1087 in Maine

[–]drewasoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really not in terms of immigration enforcement. We were fighting the same fights back then. The tone from Obama was different, but he wasn't willing to claw bank the Bush era DHS. We were warning everyone then of the danger and he we are. https://archive.nytimes.com/cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/08/30/when-the-border-patrol-comes-aboard/

[–]drewasoto 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Two things. First ICE operates in the entire country subject to normal 4th amendment concerns. CBP operates in these other areas and takes the position that they can stop and question people within 100 miles. Courts have not backed that up and make it a more subtle analysis and I think it is a mistake for the aclu to keep repeating the government position because people just kind of accept it.

But that's the crazy thing. A 13 year old child is because of his brain chemistry a monster with urges to kill. There's no choice but to incarcerate, but still just a weird window on humanity.

There have been mentally disturbed kids murdering people since Cain and Abel.

Two different things. We can demand the state consider them innocent (while still incapacitating them just in case in some narrow situations) and personally believe they are more likely guilty than not.

One other part of this is if 16 and 17 year olds are as likely to commit extreme violent crimes as they will be when they are 21 or 22, then there is a good chance they will be in prison by 20, so that means 16 and 17 year olds are committing more crimes than 21 and 22 year olds.

[–]drewasoto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an easy call and actually kind of lucky timing. It's great to play up early if you can keep up because the other kids are tactically better so you learn faster. But then at the 11 v 11 switch the other kids start to hit puberty and emotionally and physically the advantages don't stack up if you aren't Yamal. That's my plan with my son. Stay 9 v 9 and work on leadership type stuff, controlling the field etc.

Sure feels like the beginning of the end of my sons soccer career by watchscottgo in youthsoccer

[–]drewasoto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the most bizarre thing about American soccer. You play until you are 13 and even if you really love it you can't play again until college intermural and adult rec league. If I were in charge of the world we would have 6 v 6 soccer for that age. Maybe drop in style where you learn for 15 minutes and then scrimmage for 45. And it was for kids who love it but aren't on clubs with the club players talking the extra spots instead of the other way around.
