English hype. Rooney was/is a very good player, but had he not been English, he would've been "merely" considered a top 5 striker in the world, as opposed to a potential savior of a nation who could single-handedly will his country to victory as Maradona did.

Let's not forget that despite this win, the U.S. lost to Poland 3-1 in their 3rd match and had Korea not beaten Portugal, the U.S. would've been eliminated at the group stages.

If you've "played by the rules," why do you get "caught?"

Italy in 2010 was pretty funny. It was statistically the weakest group in the entire tournament and they finished last. They even had to dive against mighty New Zealand to steal a draw. And then they were felled the legendary Slovakia, a country that was making its WC debut.

It's because when he broke the rules, there were no consequences for his actions. He'd be sent off for the next game? There wouldn't even be a next game for him to miss if he doesn't use his hands. He hands took away a 100% goal and merely gave Ghana a 75% chance of getting what was rightfully theirs.

I didn't even know this was a thing. But yeah, it's wrong.

Sad thing is that he probably normally gets away with this type of behavior. If he had 32 matches to mass-text, then he's probably a pretty attractive guy. Unfortunately, a lot of guys are only as nice and respectful as they have to be, which is why you get a proliferation of attractive jerks.

If this were even a legitimate argument, how would these women force their boyfriends to marry them? Last time I checked, it was still social convention for men to propose, not the other way around.

Haha, knock yourself out. I'm just for equal opportunity love/hate of "food products."

Maybe more people would read "adult" fiction if all its writers weren't snobby and overeducated MFA drones who think that their existential dilemma over whether to eat eggs before bacon or vice versa is more worthy of a novel than the stories of 99% of the non-English-majoring and non-MFA-having "elite."

America sez: "Ladiez, please don't make us dudes feel guilty about imposing physically and mentally taxing body standards on you by not eating good food when we go out! Indulge in that burger or steak! But make sure you don't get, like, absorb those calories or anything."

My god, you mean the producer of a movie that presented Asian women as dorky White men's sexual lapdogs kind of maybe has problems with women in general?

Return of Kings wants this guy now.

For guys, it's validation of their masculine worth. I used to be obsessed with sex until I found other ways to boost my masculine sense of self-esteem. Now, I find sex to be a pleasant distraction now and then, but certainly not worth all the mental angst I wasted over it during my younger years.

My experience with the college hook-up scene is that if there are 100 guys and girls (total and evenly distributed), then maybe 10 of them are really "making the rounds" while the rest of us look on in envy/disgust. We also think that everyone except us is getting it on, when it's really just that 10%.

He kind of looks like a young Alec Baldwin. Maybe that's why it's so easy to buy him as a bastardly backstabbing snake, lol.

Give it up, dude. This is coming from a straight guy.
