Meh, that isn't fair either.

No, Barack Obama is not a socialist, he is not even a social democrat. Take that from an activist in an actual (and successful) European socialist party.

Except for the soccer-volleyball-which-game-is-more-beautiful-joke that proves the 'mericans over at Fox don't understand soccer.

Lets be honest, Heineken and Stella only exist because "foreign beer" is a cash cow in like every country ever.

I'm sorry, you are right about that. My original point was supposed to be that it's completely insane to trust any news from that (insane) conflict and a statement such as the one the OP made is problematic.

There are some stories about Israeli soldiers intentionally destroying Palestinian youngsters feet by gunshots, to keep morale down I guess. Really no such statement as yours ever seems to be accurate in that conflict.

I believe it is called "dialectics". #Marxistinsidejoke

I believe the word you are looking for is Stamokap, or State Monopoly Capitalism.

Booooooooooooo to that! Weirdly, I cannot access the full daily show episodes in Europe, but the clips work.

Let John Oliver research it for you:

When we are talking about tennis, this makes perfect sense. When we are talking about baseball, it still makes a lot of sense. When talking about the chaotic mess that soccer is, where coaches and managers try to have their players behave structured, it does not. Maybe Real are the ones that found a way against…

It is not really useful to compare two matches, you should judge based on overall seasons. A single two-leg series might be heavily influenced by better preparation, tactical luck, or game luck.

they don't because they are also attacking midfielders or whatever, because the target is chaotically moving and it's way interrupted by defenders, and because it isn't really one kicker who kicks to the wrong place but also the teammates maybe a couple of inches off or a hint of a second too late. And then maybe the…

You do realize that kicking a corner is fucking hard? You can't compare it to punting or whatever since it is about precision, not length. Also, corner specialists usually have another role that is far more important.

Fun fact: Makss Damage used to be a Stalinist before he switched camps. He was briefly (in)famous for a song against so-called anti-German leftist. Yes, that exists too. Haaretz has a story of them from a couple of years ago. His video where he switches allegiance is the most insane German video ever.

Which of course is not to say that everything is perfect. These days, we talk about it, and there is general outrage about racism in soccer. This is important, and it is maybe the most important thing that happened in sports politics in the last few years. We need to continue that work until every soccer match, and…

The epidemic is already going down. Ask some people who were in stadiums in Europe in the 80ies and 90ies. Germany and England have pretty much cracked down on it, through a lot of measures (England kicking out working class fans from the stadiums through ticket prize raises, Germany has generally now organized…

Read "Michel Houellebecq" instead of "Michelle Lhooq". Would have fitted as well, though. Ew.

to be fair they consider every single world cup except 1966 as a flameout.
