  1. I read something similar a while back, or maybe heard it on a podcast, specifically relating to music. It was about a summer in a band or session drummer who was confounded by a complicated rhythm or something and they did take after take and just couldn't get it. They called it and went to bed, then the very first take the next day the drummer nailed the take perfectly. 

    I'm the type that processes things slowly over time, so I like to put some time into a song or recording, then move on and come back to it a few days later. I'm interested to see how I do with deadlines. This prompt fired off a lot of ideas for me, so it shouldn't be tough to complete, but I am sure i will find some future prompts more frustrating.

  2. Stuver was a bright spot at many times during the first season when the whole team was trash. Last season he was a leader and played well most of the season. 

    He has been trash the last couple of months, so maybe this is just who he is going to be.  I think he can be much better.

  3. Wow, this new era of recruits getting paid and driving up the price by showing interest in other schools that are also offering to pay the recruit is so incredibly unique and new and unfair!

  4. This is on the casting team for continually putting these toxic tail-chasing motherfuckers in positions of authority on boats with girls that have a lot of intimacy-related baggage.  Yeah, it provides a ton of must-see drama, but eventually you get a stone cold predator like this piece of shit and some terrible shit happens with real, long term damage to multiple individuals. 

     

    There have been plenty of garbage humans of the female variety doing despicable shit as well, with this psycho Laura being right at the top. But I think the showrunners should be held accountable for specifically choosing creepers knowing that they would try to bang the stews which seems to be the type of drama they are attempting to capture on camera. 

    That was disturbing to watch, holy shit.

    Jesus. His receruiting profile had him at 325, and his A&M profile has him at 290. If that A&M profile is based on the most recent weigh in, well, ok. If that's what he played at last year...ooof. I don't see how that's  possible. 290 is probably doable for him.

    Comparably, Jaray Beldoe was at 270 in his recruiting proflie and is around 275 now. And we know the issues we're having with that dude. So maybe Nolen is fine? I know we'd take Bledsoe at 290. But if Nolen is around Bledsoe's weight, well, yeah, we know how that is going to play out. 

    That's great, but I've actually met Jaray Beldoe.  Couldn't be a nicer bunch, the Beldoes.

    Deep Fake Love on Netflix. Spanish show. Couples go to a resort and get split into separate houses stocked with singles. Each is then showed video of the other, is it real or fake? It’s pretty disturbing as their relationships collapse over fake and real cheating,

    Yeah this is about as trash as it gets. It's like temptation island but with even more gaslighting and unethical psychological trauma. No attempt is made to mend these couples' relationships, it is pure carnage. 

    That's my take through only 2 episodes, not sure if I will keep watching.

    Agreed. It was a clinical ball hit just inside the post that punished multiple defensive mistakes. 

    It actually reminded me of how those assholes beat us in Qatar.

    Phenomenal soccer culture. 

    I had that same feeling regarding the match resembling the match in Qatar. They're so much more patient than we were and then they made us look silly as soon as the chance was there. 

     

    The Dutch women had a similar chance in the second half that was an easy goal if Ertz doesn't make a hero's save with her heel. 

  8. Keller has done well in transition to defend a couple of counters.  But obviously he is a complete liability with the ball at his feet.

    Stu keeping us in it. I can't imagine a good reason for both Ring and Cascante to be so far on the left side chasing.

    That had to be a miscommunication, just terribly obvious as soon as they got sucked in where the ball was about to go. 

  10. Really poor start so far aside from the Cascante header. Shitty passes, poor decisions by Driussi and Fagundez off the dribble. Good thing they are hapless in the attacking 3rd.
