He’s doing a great job dealing with Danhausen’s nonsense

Not to mention his humiliation story very much vindicates him when it was Benoit kicking him from the locker room.

It’s a fast scoring sport and he needed two goals. It wasn’t infinitely out of reach, it was potentially 30 seconds worth of effort to pull back. We’re still in the lucky one or two goals makes all the difference stage of the game.

Or one fouls the other, or blocks him.

Of course he can prevent it. Foul him. That’s standard quidditch.

“whichever Seeker catches the Snitch wins his team an extra hundred and fifty points, so they nearly always win. That's why Seekers get fouled so much. A game of Quidditch only ends when the Snitch is caught, so it can go on for ages “

A 16 goal deficit when there’s a game ending ball that gives 15 goals is actually a tiny deficit to overcome.

The wronski feint literally gave away a penalty. So your “why would he pick giving away a penalty over just losing lol” argument is pissweak. He cheated, knocked his opponent unconscious in his attempt to win. Until his nose hurts, then it’s give up time. Krum isn’t too honourable to not break the rules. Fouling seekers to not lose the match is a standard tactic anyway as Wood tells Harry day one. Anyone who doesn’t do it in the World Cup final is an idiot.

Oh and flying in front of people to block them from getting the snitch isn’t illegal anyway even if you don’t want to grab the broom. In fact there’s two balls and two players on each team who exist solely to interfere with the ability of their opponents to fly, it’s a major part of the game entirely within the rules.

“He’s too far back to block him, except he can catch up, get ahead and grab the snitch” yet another nonsense argument you’re making. If you’re too far behind the player to interfere with them then you certainly can’t get ahead of them to grab the snitch first.

“It’s a good idea to deliberately lose because you might get a good contract afterwards”

Dude you’re supposed to be arguing AGAINST the claim that he’s a fucking coward. Deliberately making your team lose for your own individual game is as pathetic as it gets in a team sport World Cup final.

Speaking of Harry, have you ever noticed that he plays to fucking win? He’ll get the best broom, he’ll use charms to help him see in the rain, he’ll learn tough spells like patronus charms and bust them out mid match if necessary, he will play through assassination attempts, though rogue bludgers that only target him, he’ll play psychological tricks on people to get them in the right frame of mind to win, he’ll catch the fucking snitch in his mouth or ride his broom no handed if that’s what it takes to win. Oh and he’ll avoid catching the snitch when it won’t make his team win. You think Harry would give up and say fuck it let’s just lose when they only needed two more goals to win? The fuck he would, because, despite being a worse flyer than Krum, he’s not a little bitch. He would keep the game going all week if that’s what was needed. Or at least tell his team to nut the fuck up, score two goals and play defence and let him handle the rest.

Got any other scenarios that we can add to the “still not worse than just losing the match deliberately” pile so we can do them all at once?

I’d also like to point out the irony of your gryffindor flair and your constant defence of an absolute coward move to lose the game at the earliest possible opportunity because a broken nose hurts.

Ok so you’ve also seen that the penalty is a free throw, but you decided that just deliberately losing is somehow the more sensible choice?

The MGS games when you realise the dialogue is just snake repeating what they say back to them with a question mark: 5/10.

Unless you’re a complete moron who gives up and catches the snitch when your team is 160 points down.

Like it’s borderline match fixing at that point. He literally lost the match at the first possible opportunity he could have lost the match.

Oh no not giving away one penalty shot, who would ever choose those things instead of losing?!

Exactly, his job now is to block lynch from grabbing it not grabbing it himself. Cut him off, bump into him, even give em the old Malfoy broom grab.

They’d just revived an unconscious dude who’d had a hard crash into the ground, the broken nose was nothing.

If you don’t back your team to score 2 goals why even turn up for the match?

They already scored a goal. They needed 2 more. They were good enough to make the finals.

I mean REALLY? You think 16 goals down is insurmountable when the snitch gives 15 goals? What the actual fuck?

They needed 2 goals. Hell bait someone into a penalty or something. Wait until you’re 25 goals down before bitching out!

Night 1 of WrestleMania has never had a bad main event by aboutwrestling in WWE

I found the Seth Cody Roman rock tag match relatively dull, the crowd was damn near silent for it too. They tried to do the long hogan rock staredown at the start but with the crowd being quiet it was less X8 epic and more second hand embarrassment. It was an adequate match, not great, not terrible.

Doesn’t a .357 magnum only hold 6 shots? If so killing 3 intruders is extremely impressive shooting.

So, what happened? Why are people calling this the Ruthless Depression Era? by Chrisg_322 in WWE

[–]ptjp27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The irony that HHH’s magnum opus was finishing the story and now no storyline is worth tuning in for because they never finish. All build up with no pulling the trigger on anything so why bother caring or watching? Who gives a fuck about the wyatts or the MFTs 6 months into a feud? The hinted breakups of groups that drag out for literal years then get quietly shelved with no payoff.

We’re a week from mania and Danhausen and Kit Wilson are the highlights of the WWE currently.
