“ this image of a black man photoshopped into a faux-medieval setting”

You mean almost as loud as the “SOCCER IS FOR DUMB PUSSIES LET ME WATCH FOOTBALL DURRR” crowd? No one cares, go fly a kite.

I hope a bucket of paint falls off a ladder and lands upside-down on your head and gets stuck there and you stumble around with a paint-bucket on your head and crash into a ladder and fall down a manhole.

* Neymar: Behaves like an asshole, gets treated like an asshole.

Counterpoint: when you do unsportsmanlike stuff like what’s shown above, you can’t claim that people only kick you because you are better. Some people actually just wanna kick you because you’re an asshole.

I’m all for Neymar being cocky with his play, I’m all for him trying to nutmeg everybody under the sun, and control long passes with those nifty little showoffy flicks and taking ludicrous shots and what the fuck ever.

The problem isn’t that Neymar pulls off cool shit during games. The problem is that Neymar is kind of a cunt. Ronaldinho did this shit all the time and literally got applauded by rival teams/fans.

Neymar being Neymar, Dodo being a dodo:

Wow, this is a shit headline. Go fuck yourself Rafi.

Ah, once again the Democrats are most concerned about being seen as the “reasonable” party that is willing to work together and compromise.

STOP THINKING, JUST REACT.

Manchester United has a long history of signing heralded teenagers and nurturing them into stars. Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney come to mind. I wouldn’t worry about his development. It’s in their best interest to aid in making him into a better player.

Remember Shinji - It’s not Mou. Some Dortmund players are as good outside of the Dortmund system.

So, we complain about the trend of movies bowing to audience expectations, and then we slam movies for not being as woke (or the wrong kind of woke) as we expect them to be?

If he accepted it and played, he’d be permanently tied to Mexico

The worst part about EA’s handling of Star Wars is that I can’t feel any enthusiasm from them. Every other form of media that Star Wars has invaded since the Disney acquisition have been firing on all cylinders. Books, comics, TV shows, and the movies, of course - and everyone involved in those projects just seem so…

This is a good comment and a smart rebuttal to some of the points I raised. Just wanted to bump it up toward the top.

The plotting itself in Act 2 was pointless. What Rian Johnson was trying to do (I’m not sure I totally agree with his decisions) was take the usual harebrained Star Wars convoluted Hail Mary hero plan and make it fail. And fail spectacularly.

Yeah, because that’s developed a great run of form for England’s National Team.

Reminds me somewhat of this one here. ;-)
