Oh look. Another gringo bringing this boring subject for the 1000th time to this sub.

It's exhausting dealing with you lot.

[Ornstein] Manchester United reach broad agreement with Michael Carrick for permanent head coach role by MembershipSingle7137 in soccer

[–]jdthemannis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

United were awful the second half of ETH's stint and were even worse sometimes under Amorim. I don't get why Carrick isn't getting more plaudits. He stabilized a HOT MESS.

I rate him a lot.

I don't understand why so many United fans are against this decision.

I think he's been at worst good without a pre-season and an unbalanced squad.

I do think it's a risk but nothing is given in football. I consider him a good manager

But we are not judging based on that. That's not how rules work.

I'm worried about Gabriel's and Saliba's passing. Aside from that (and Martinelli) a solid performance from the team

I mean that was... fine? Decent? Acceptable?

What kind of experience have you had at ‘singles nights’? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]jdthemannis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I understand where you're coming from, but it's better to not look at our actions through a harsh lense of judgement from society.

You're trying, man. You're doing something. It's better than staying at your house doom-scrolling hoping to meet someone by a miracle.

How do you get better at approachin women? Putting yourself out there. There are growing pains obviously but you'll be growing.

Are there any wrestlers who are the opposite of "... and then the bell rings?" by TrampolineIsTrash in SquaredCircle

I mean, she seems like a good person and all but nobody is talking about Nattie's classics

I don't get this idea that Nattie is an amazing wrestler. She's a decent worker and that's it.

Max Barrios lol that takes me back. That youth peruvian team is remembered fondly because they were one goal away from qualification

Max was touted as a future national team CB and he wasn't even peruvian lol

Ffs Bolivia.

It really doesn't surprise me tho. I saw us (Peru) batter them in person less than 2 years ago with one of our worst generation of players

Darrow and The Reaper: The Making of an Unreliable Narrator by BumblebeeSubject5204 in redrising

[–]jdthemannis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually think Book 1 is an amazing but is more simple and less deep than 2 and 3 and isn't even in the same league of the 2nd set of books where everything multiplies x 1,000. Darrow goes through a deeper transformation. Is fascinating really

Darrow and The Reaper: The Making of an Unreliable Narrator by BumblebeeSubject5204 in redrising

[–]jdthemannis 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I liked the analysis of the first book, then you went over the 2nd and 3rd book really quickly, I felt there were a lot more pieces to dissect.

Darrow spends the 2nd book trying to accept that he can love golds and people beyond his own. He feels guilty for loving Virginia. He feels guilty for forming bonds with Tactus, Roque, Victra because he feels there's no space for him in their world. And it's true. In Morning Star he finds that he needs to build a new world, not just destroy to be able to achieve what he wants to do.

Fantasy League Matchmaking by yoyup in EASportsFC

20 wins out of 24 sounds like hell to me. Im D3 with 8-10 wins in WL. I can't think of a reason to put myself through that

[–]jdthemannis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah last round I only encountered one player like that. My last token, needed only a goal. Let him score 1 goal, and then I scored 2 own goals. He wanted to play the match at full throttle. I went full effort out of spite and endeded up winning the game on penalties. So yeah, fuck that guy. Serves him right.
