Seriously. An all-Spanish language team has great talent at forward (Messi, Suarez, Alexis, James, Higuain, Aguero, Cavani) and Spain has a good midfield, but an all-French team gives them a run for their money: there’s some really good French-speaking talent at forward (the French NT with Griezmann, Dembele, Mbappe,…

Shhh! Don’t give ‘em a clue. It just makes it harder for the rest of us to figure out who they are. Also, it might dry up the pool of people who write to Dear Abby. If anybody needs proof of your two points, they can find it real quick in that column.

Yeah, I was trying to decide if whoever posted this did so maliciously, knowing what a tinderbox it was... or if they were just dumb enough to think it was awesome and that everyone who saw it would think it was awesome.

I don’t know the order of learning languages for the Galicians and Basques but, assuming you still include the Independent Republic of Catalonia as part of Spain, it is entirely possible that Spain would have 4 of the top 10 language teams in the world.

Let the stupidity continue. Out the whole lot of them.

Further proof of two things.

I think the Uruguayans, Argentinians and sundry other Spanish speaking players more than make up for that.

In the Cold War days, BFVs would be teamed with Abrams and Apaches for the initial infantry incursion. But, again, these tactics were developed around liberating FRIENDLY areas. The tacticians in these asymmetric wars were woefully unprepared for the attitude of the populations that resented our very existence, much…

There’s always a language truther.

Let’s not forget that half the Spanish team speak Catalan as their first language and would therefore not be eligible for the Spanish speaking team, unless of course players are eligible for every language they speak in which case the English speaking team wins by a mile.

Sounds like an excellent point, and as former active duty I’m initmately familiar with this type of strategic planning.

HOT TAKE- English has England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, USA, Canada, and Caribbean dependencies. Pulisic, Bale, England’s team, Zack Steffen. That’s no slouch. (And heck, I may be forgetting some wonderkids from Ireland.)

The original HMMWV was designed to operate in already-secured spaces where the threat of large caliber weapons, RPGs, and IEDs were never involved. They were to be used to move men and materials rapidly between outposts, not engage in direct combat. They were designed for areas liberated by NATO from the Soviets.

It’s like the political universe had to get back for “No Drama Obama” by giving us this fucking Katrina-sized shitstorm of non-stop scandal to restore balance or something.

Yeah, but he was black; we were supposed to be worrying about him being black, which apparently is way worse than being blatantly evil in public.

100% BBC cuckold porn and no one is surprised.

It’s going to be way, way more disturbing than anyone thought when it turns out there are hacked webcam vids of Ghouliani beating it to 9/11 videos.

Well luckily this is just a Twitter beef and not an actual court case, because an IP address is not sufficient proof in itself. You could say you let someone use your computer, or that someone used your wifi connection.

Ohhh man you're right, that WOULD make a lot of sense. You'd get the monitor for when you needed it, without having to take up the space and A/C ports a normal monitor would. Genius!

I'm willing to bet that the 7" monitor idea was originally designed for situations where you would normally just place a headless server. I can see that being quite useful, if it is the primary monitor and basically only used if you want to do a proper restart on the box and it's not responding via SSH, or perhaps…
