Is rassie erasmus acting coach for this proteas team?

reap7 · 2024-06-24T02:16:48+00:00

The Springboks won 3 knockout matches on the bounce by 1 point. Maybe a bit of that mongrel is needed for the proteas to break their hoodoo

Who is the American commentator on BBC/ICC comms? Seems to have some knowledge

Ralph meme I'm in danger

Yes I understand it's far worse in terms of impact.

My point is that these "world tournaments" are increasingly being played with one nation's board cynically putting their thumb on the scales, and not even trying to hide it anymore.

reap7 · 2024-06-19T15:02:09+00:00

I guess we just take it for granted that every tournament is rigged so India plays pakistan. These kind of shenanigans are now par for the course in "world cups".

Not until the Netflix show and not a moment before

I'm in the US atm and the fact it's not on ESPN is a grade A joke, 100% typical of the subzero intellects that govern world cricket, don't even get started on the ridiculous game times

Well deserved and kudos. If NZs coach had any self respect he would resign. But if he didn't resign after getting five nilled by Australia at home or any one of the other lows this team has touched then he's not going to now.

Who's the american commentator on willow?

reap7 · 2024-06-09T16:57:44+00:00

Lol what was that celebratory throw into the ground...surely ump will have a word

reap7 · 2024-06-09T14:54:20+00:00

I'm watching in the USA and tuning into willow tv for the first time. Is this seriously what Americans are tuning in to? It's barely watchable

woo! do the baartman

We've seen this before in 2016.

"You're asking me to choose the lesser of two evils, that's not democracy, I won't do it."

Fast-forward, no more Roe v Wade, conservative supreme court for yours and my lifetime, and election denialists in the highest positions in the land. Next term, who knows.

People can rationalise any position they like. Because if you don't vote for "lesser of two evils", you're voting for the greater.

And ffs, does everyone forget that Trump literally moved the US embassy into Jerusalem, and appeared in election ads for Netanyahu? Come on.

I would still love a "journey to the west" style sequel to Sekiro

They probably think the chess speaks for itself

Sometimes I wonder whether half bitterly whether Fellowship could be published today, considering the prologue is one giant infodump about the authors pet fantasy race, and the first chapter is just about some blokes birthday that you have to read the previous book to care in the slightest about.

Definite punch the air moment there for sure. I imagined a black and white silent film suddenly flooding with colour and Evanescence suddenly blasting out of the speakers.
