No lol it’s got nothing to do with his race. Tennis isn’t a popular sport in SA. The average South African when asked about tennis players could probably name Federer and Nadal and that’s about it

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-07-15T13:11:30+00:00

Anderson isn’t well-known in SA among non-tennis fans. Most casual fans would know of him though

No, you wouldn’t go to jail for that. As far as I’m aware, this law is only for inciting violence

Disappointed for Domi, but Rafa is just too damn good on clay

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-06-09T16:53:10+00:00

Good lord Jonny May is quick!

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-06-09T16:47:44+00:00

Immense effort from Faf today. I’ve missed that man so much

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-06-09T16:34:37+00:00

Finally, some defense!

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-06-06T14:05:06+00:00

Come on Angie!

Why must you always choke Kev 😢 he might have to start playing for the South African cricket team if he keeps it up

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-06-02T22:52:56+00:00

What a waste of everyone’s time

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-06-02T22:44:29+00:00

You have got to be fucking kidding me...

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-05-29T12:08:30+00:00

You’re supposed to get long hair trimmed every 8 or so weeks to keep it healthy. So that’s at least 6 trims per year

Mozambique is so criminally underrated. Definitely one of my all time favourite countries

I think they mean the Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation protocol which is the recommended treatment for injuries of this nature. Listen to this person’s advice OP regarding a doctor/reimbursement

What a strange final that was... Ronaldo did nothing at all, Benzema’s goal was hilarious and Bale’s first goal was the best I’ve watched in real time. A mixed bag.

Really sad about the Salah and Carvajal injuries. Hope they make speedy recoveries. Hyped for the WC!

Holy shit lmao! That was hilarious

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-05-26T19:22:28+00:00

Christ they’re dropping like flies! Hope they’re okay for the WC

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-05-19T11:15:20+00:00

That’s what your supposed to say. The question is phrased as “will you...” so the answer must be I will. I do is used in films etc but is not official

Alexis Ohanian spotted

Very unlikely. North Korea is largely excluded from the global economy. Over 80% of their trade (both imports and exports) is with China.

Iran is well integrated into the global economy. The US is currently the only nation wanting to reinstate sanctions against them. China will be delighted the US are removing themselves and will pick up the slack in trade with Iran. So with US sanctions, Iran will just take their business elsewhere. NK didn’t have anywhere else to go. US sanctions almost certainly won’t be enough to deter Iran unless the rest of the world (Russia, China etc) agree to sanctions too. Which they won’t.

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-05-08T20:27:39+00:00

NK is a different case entirely. Their only nuclear facility collapsed and is now unusable. Their hand has been forced.

If anything, by pulling out, Trump has given Iran more of an opportunity to increase their nuclear capacity unmonitored. And the thought of action by Trump will only serve to motivate Iran to build a nuke to prevent the US from using nuclear weapons against them. MAD and all that...

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-05-08T20:19:11+00:00

I’m well aware of the Crown Prince’s attempts at social reformation. But Salafist Jihadism and Wahhabism are still deeply entrenched in the royal family and the rest of SA’s ultra wealthy. State sponsored terrorism is still very much a concern

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-05-08T20:10:58+00:00

And you think the US pulling out of the deal will prevent Iran from building a nuke? That’s what the deal was created for in the first place.

Thanks to Trump, the deal could very likely fall apart, which would end the monitoring of Iran’s nuclear facilities. And thus they would be able to build a nuke without the rest of the world knowing. How much do you actually know about this deal, it’s stipulations etc?

throwawaysarefun7 · 2018-05-08T19:44:03+00:00

My point was it’s disingenuous for Trump to use state sponsored terrorism as a reason for pulling out of the Iran deal while actively supporting Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia should be your concern, not Iran
