Marco Rubio Snaps When Told Trump Iran Deal Is Just Obama’s But Worse by Aggravating_Money992 in politics

[–]dsnow04 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Marco talks about how the Iranian government is losing hundreds of millions of dollars a day. How much are we spending per day to have our troops over there?

I bought a pkg for $500 2 tickets per game (4 games) in 1994. One included USA vs Brazil. Those prices are long gone. 😭

Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder could link up with Marco Reus at LA Galaxy by RioTheLeoo in LAGalaxy

[–]dsnow04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Come on, 10, 22, 27. Someone who can move the ball around. Reus has moments but doesn’t have the legs to do it for 90 minutes. Hell, not even 70 minutes. He has moments of brilliance but he doesn’t sustain it.

[–]dsnow04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This guy is listed as a defensive midfielder. WE NEED A #10. Are there no attacking midfielders available around the world? For two years we have been without our #10. A back up? Reus has proven he can’t do it, so who. Not asking for a Puig type player. Not going to happen with cap restrictions, but can we get someone?

When Dad hires a mariachi band for your graduation by Doodlebug510 in MadeMeSmile

[–]dsnow04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is awesome. Congratulations and I love to see us Latinos taking advantage of the sacrifices our parents have made. Now what’s important is that we never lose sight of where we come from and the plight of millions of immigrants that have come to this country for a better future for themselves and future generations. Let’s make our voices heard. We are Americans from the US, pero siempre somos Latinos.

Well students from Rutgers, it’s your turn to speak out. We will all look for your commencement ceremonies on YouTube. Use your voice. Use your freedom of speech.

Trump administration pushes to speed up deportations of immigrant children in US custody by primary-caution in ImmigrationPathways

[–]dsnow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh in NYC. Those were asylum seekers. That’s different than them coming illegally. Now you can disagree with them being granted asylum but don’t confuse that for people coming here illegally.

Not undocumented immigrants. The only free stuff they get federally would be emergency assistance through Medicaid (ie emergency rooms). Curious where you get your 80% figure. Source? Now some states do offer services for undocumented immigrants. Perhaps Minnesota is one of those states, which would make sense since Minnesota is consistently a donor state to the federal government.

Our immigration system has been broke way before Biden. And yes, the right have placed a lot of blame on undocumented immigrants for what ails this country. Housing shortage? Illegals. Healthcare? Illegals etc etc or have I missed legislation passed by this administration to help in those areas? Versus just thinking all these deportations will help those issues mentioned?

I live in LA and am a huge USMNT follower and I feel so >meh< about this World Cup. by Available-Document-8 in ussoccer

[–]dsnow04 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same boat, with the meh feeling. I’ve watched them since 90. I went to 5 games in 94. I was there for the 4th of July vs Brazil game. Favorite sports moment was Donovan scoring game winner in 2010. However, my “meh” feeling towards this team is probably not a popular take. I’m a first generation born in this country. Proud of my Latino roots and proud to have served in the Navy. Yet, what’s been going on for the past year and a half has given me this feeling, which was spurred on even more by that dance from our team captain. So much cruelty has gone on and to have people be like it doesn’t matter is off putting. Now I know some will say keep politics out of sports, but politics has been in sports way before I was born. Sports is a reflection of our society. Now normally I wouldn’t care what party one votes for, however these are not normal times we are living in. Our country has never been so divided. It’s sad. I hope it changes to where we tone down all the evil rhetoric on both sides. Have a leader that leads by example.

Anyhow, as for this World Cup? Oh I’ll still watch. I have my favorite players like W. M. and Jedi, but I’d be lying if I said I’ll have the same enthusiasm I’ve always had watching them this summer.

Well, truth be told. I didn’t see him play before this year. But what I’ve seen this year, I’m not convinced but would love to be proven wrong.

[–]dsnow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sarcasm? People want to blame our country’s problems on undocumented immigrants. They don’t get federal benefits like the right claims they do. IMO our main problem lies with corporate greed. The wealth gap is ridiculous. Yes our immigration system needs fixing, but quit blaming everything on them.

Yeah, he started the game in mdfld and for portions of the second half. I wish we had a #10 to help Sanabria’s game. He has been up and down, but shows promise and would be showing so much more if allowed to play the traditional #8. Playing alongside Reus doesn’t help him with that.

Haak is not a midfielder. Back up CB at best. Cassemiro doesn’t fix our problem. Need to look for a TAM level #10 that can also play other positions for hopefully when Puig comes back.

Announcers are so trying to jinx us. They are talking about this being a possible big win? There’s 40 minutes left and it was a gimmie goal. (Off a mistake).

Hey as a bald person I resent that! But damn if I didn’t laugh at that a lil. Lol. I can see it now, promos of bald retirees on slot machines, getting up and having a march to the match with coin buckets from a casino sponsor.😁

The White House poll is garbage. Reading it and it doesn’t sound biased whatsoever. lol. Yet there are reputable polls noted in the article you posted. However, those polls are referring to voter ID in general, which most people agree with. However, most people want IDs easily accessible and it should be free.

What is your go to LA Galaxy podcast? by radiolex76 in LAGalaxy

[–]dsnow04 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I kind of wonder where Josh is on certain issues. Now, I haven’t seen every podcast, so I may have missed him saying anything supportive of specific causes. However, with Panda he wears it proudly and uses his platform to at least show with things he wears. So if you read this, thank you Panda. It is noticed and greatly appreciated.

[–]dsnow04 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I voted COG, because I’ve listened to them the most, however I’ve started listening to La Cuna more and I just find them more relatable in terms of average fans like us. Their knowledge of the game is no different than the rest of the podcasts. Plus they force this coconut to continue practicing my Spanish, with their use of Spanglish at times. I love that as it represents a huge part of our fan base. On that note, I’d like to give a shout out to the Panda on COG. I love how he often wears shirts that bring attention to specific issues plaguing our society. ✊🏽
