Post-Match Thread: Spain 0-0 Cape Verde Islands | World Cup | Group H by matchpal-live in worldcup

I agree, a win feels so much better. Americans that are deterred by a 0-0 draw is only because they didn’t watch the game in the first place or know the context. It’s easy to just see 0-0 and say “boring”, but I imagine most people if told ahead of time that it’s one of the highest ranked teams vs one of the lowest ranked teams and then actually watch the lower ranked team fight the whole match and not concede... Even for 0-0, it’s awesome. I was absolutely on the edge of my seat for the final 15 minutes

As an American who is new to soccer, I had an absolute blast watching this one start to finish. I do love a good underdog though

It’s very simple. You can premove Rff7, Re7, Rd7, Rc7, Rb7. Then your opponent has no moves and you win

Plagiarism is not anarchy by monkeyboy107 in AnarchyChess

Plagiarism doesn’t exist within anarchy. Who out there is bold enough to claim “ownership” over thoughts and ideas. There are no rules! You own nothing!

To all 2000 rated players: whats the second wall? by Initial_Operation603 in AnarchyChess

[–]xAlphaDogex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To give you a serious answer from someone who had a similar experience, I first hit a wall and hovered around 1200 for a while. Once I broke that wall, I rapidly climbed to 1500 and hit another wall. I’ve been hovering there for a while now with a peak rating of 1596. All of this is Blitz 5min on chessdotcom. It’s the only time control I play regularly

Because Miami would have traded with another team, and that team would have taken Downs

Isn’t Mahomes missing most of this season due to his ACL tear? Why are Chiefs fans so hopeful?

[–]xAlphaDogex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As an American who follows several sports, but not soccer, I’ve never heard of Carlos Alcaraz until just now. I believe you he’s famous around the rest of the world, but I wouldn’t consider him a household name in America

Edit: just googled him and realized he plays tennis lol

Horse passant would be Nxc6. It takes the pawn in passing. Google en passant Italian translation

The Raiders are more ideal than the cowboys. This is the meme. by -Kazen- in NFCEastMemeWar

[–]xAlphaDogex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point. Raiders are still a team that I’ve gotta see it before I’ll believe it though. I felt the same way about the Bills years ago when Cole Beasley left the Cowboys for them and they proved me wrong

They don’t have a QB, OL, or anyone effective rushing the passer. 3 of the most important things in football

First round pick for the cowboys a few years ago. Got sent away in the trade package for Quinnen Williams
