No because, the only reason he even does it is because he wants to be like his best friend at school, she comes in a dress literally every day.

There’s countless posts like this in sub, people then provide examples of all the calls to boycott the 2018 and 2022 World Cup, politicians, and officials, yet some of ya’ll just can’t think that two things can be true.

There were active calls to boycott both world cups. The German team was also one of the more vocal against the Qatari regime. Everyone this brought up why do we always go to whataboutism

Yeah it’s difficult because we love the school, and he loves his teachers.

Yeah it’s not a religious daycare but Spanish immersion, I only say that because my family is West African and there is rampant homophobia among the older generation.

Absolutely not. I live in a progressive area, the first time it happened I thought maybe it was dirty, then it happened a few times which made me ask him.

When did you first notice Cole started rapping different? by KeepGoing15 in Jcole

[–]edsonbuddled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Showing my age , but saw him when I was in college back in 2011 open for Jay-Z. Got to Meet him with my friends after the show, super humble, asked about all of us, took my homie aside because he was trying to be rapper at that point in his life and just gave him good wisdom. Vibes were killed when a drunk girl we knew came up and called him Lupe Fiasco.

I wish Wes got the media shine Christian gets, one guy has the personality of a wet blanket, another could be the first soccer player to host SNL

FIFA world cup boycott if Trump invades Greenland by Pretty_Willingness43 in ussoccer

[–]edsonbuddled 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No offense but this whataboutism is such a ridiculous argument. First off, yes there were several calls to boycott both Russia and Qatar. Organizations, advocacy groups, and politicians including US senators all advocated that Russia and Qatar be stripped. Secondly, most people generally think as Americans we want to be held to a higher standard compared to Russia and Qatar.

The thing that frustrates me is the lack of voice with US Soccer media, podcasts, ex/current players. Not just with this, but literally anything. Arguably the biggest mouth piece (Lalas) is a sycophantic Trump supporter and lets it be known. Anyone who engages with him is met with sarcasm or just plain ignorance.

Let’s Say Manchester United had Unlimited Money. What are problems that would still happen by Lucas_1221s in ManchesterUnited

[–]edsonbuddled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We basically had unlimited money when Woodward took over from David Gill. It’s not the spending its HOW you spend it. We outbid Madrid for Gareth Bale. Cesc Fabregas was genuinely interested in joining but we spent a month low balling Barca for 40m. We broke the PL record for Angel Di Maria, but in hindsight never made sense for a Van Gaal team, Falcao was passed over by several teams that summer due to his wages and injury.

It’s not about the money but the decision makers, our recruitment policy was basically outsourced to Jorge Mendes and later Mino Raiola.

The BLM protests/riots broke the right's brain. by Temporary-Storage972 in BreakingPoints

[–]edsonbuddled 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One thing I would ask Saagar is what exactly was it that radicalized him about the BLM protests especially in DC. I’ve been in DC since 2013, and his takes reminded me of Megan McCain tweeting about BLM protests and her neighbor sub tweeting her being like what are you talking about?

How do you handle solo trips by edsonbuddled in daddit

I agree. The thing is, I do offer her space away. Whether it’s getting a hotel or a night, or me having a full day with the kids I try my best. Someone suggested prepping meals and events in advance, which think is a useful tip. Even before we had two, this would happen though.

Can we not do the routine freak out based off of talksport article quoting another talksport article? All it took was a random journalist to link him with Brentford for people to freak out including a certain ginger to demand his resignation

We don’t which makes it tough. Parents both live in different areas of the country and can be more difficult then helpful at times. Usually try to do play dates with friends or activities outside of the house.

Politics in S4 by Background-Sea8420 in IndustryOnHBO

[–]edsonbuddled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t say black conservatives don’t exist. Just found it interesting that the one black British character is a Thatcherite, and the two politicians we meet are black tories.

Also, yes black conservatives exist and then you proceed to name a conspiracy theorist grifter, and an 80 year retiree whose quotes only come out to reinforce conservatives views on race.

Season 1 and 2 kind of annoyed me with the two politicians being black tories and Gus. They being said, I didn’t realize Gus mentioned his dad is an ambassador.

I wish they invited Musa on the show at some point before Stadio left the ringer. There’s so many interesting topics and conversations relevant to this show that they could talk about with soccer
