  1. I mean they are going to have to sell players this winter because they were absolutely counting on more UCL money. That’s at least a couple of players salaries. If my memory serves me(and it probably doesn’t), it’s like 16mil to make UCL, 3mil a win in group, 1mil a draw, and 10mil to qualify to knockout, with it growing by a few mil each round.
  2. Wonder what DeJong is thinking. Didn’t he say he wanted Barca over ManU because of UCL vs Europa.
  3. Bye Barca!
  4. Hell yeah, had that dart, grenades, the paper spool ones and my fav was when the plastic round 6-10 shot ones were common place and you could do speed reloads with your detective set revolvers…. That was true crime fightin in my house
  5. I’m a fan of CDNN I got a HK P2000 from them for $450 one Xmas, which was like $200 less than the next closest price at the time.
  6. Was randomly poking around Star Wars lore and saw a few people breaking down Rebels and Andor year of 5bby like Agent Kallus having so much control except only when Tarkin, Vader or Thrawn are around set to Colonel Yularen’s speech that the emperor had assured him that the ISB would be taking lead from now on. Also some of the arrests being made for random minor transgression being labeled treason being compared directly to Yularen’s speech about even indirectly crimes against the empire being now labeled a class 1 criminal act. I was sold. Lol
  7. Yeah during this point of the rebellion, it is individual cells of the rebellion forming and acting independently in their own interests. It’ll still be a few more years before the rebellion really starts acting as a larger unit. We are 5 bby in season 1 of Andor, which is actually the start of the Rebels show as well. I’d imagine season 2 will get us to 0 bby leading right into R1.
  8. Right he does a short stint in his youth, and what shoulda been another short stint for this one he looking at 6yrs.
  9. This is purely to continue his investment in the rebel “cause”. The next 3 episodes will be the prison arc of the series. I’m assuming he binds with another rebel cell, breaks out and keeps running. We know he might have to fend off a rebel assassination attempt at Kleya’s command. Which I think is outside of Luthren’s wishes
  10. They’ve been saying it since the beginning. Rebellions are built on hope but there is always pain and bad things must be done. Saw Gerrera showed the even darker side of rebellion, when it becomes extremism and terrorism. Clone Wars(some), Rebels and R1 showed that gray area. Andor embodies the old “good men must sometimes do terrible things”
  11. Hah my wife did say so we went from trade negotiations to nationalization of the private sector along with Heavy re-education. I love it
  12. Correct Yularen joined the ISB as Colonel. In Star Wars Rebels he works with Thrawn in an episode as they begin to uncover the Lothal Rebel cell.
  13. Lol that was insanity. Ruined a pretty great sports weekend and week with the draw… Inter was so close to sending poor barca packing so early. Damn so close
  14. Rudiger pulls Madrid even in the 95” and Madrid is through to the knockouts. But it came at a cost:
  15. Is he having sex with that rock spire?!? He’s stuck on the rock’s hard place… Is that what he is saying?
  16. Not necessarily smarter than him, just better focused tech in some areas. It didn’t take him long to modify his tech to make theirs useless on him. He also states that he would die with them to intentionally spite their beliefs. My take was their tech was different and their way of thinking was different but not “smarter” per se.
  17. Oh man yeah group 44, those green stripes and green rims!
  18. It’s so funny how liveries were/are so great. Like the Ford GT, I just think Gulf. A Toyota Rally & GT series I think Castrol livery. When I think old school F1 I think Marlboro and that black John Player livery. The other one that stood out but I can’t place it other than Lancias is that Martini livery. And when I think of old school American muscle racing I think of the STP livery
  19. So I didn’t realize we missed a Christmas special episode when the wife and I were about to start the Halloween special. So we watched both. Great specials. Also the Halloween special has the original voice of the cryptkeeper btw.
  20. Because i don’t really have another place to post this. My all time favorite player Xabi Alonso has agreed to take over Bayer Leverkusen. https://theathletic.com/3659771/2022/10/05/xabi-alonso-bayer-leverkusen/?amp=1
  21. You could be like my family and just be Hispanic of Mexican indigenous and Spanish blood and not know a damn thang about the blood make-up. As my grandfather said, “Mexican, Texan, Mestizaje, Indian. I don’t know, I don’t care”
  22. Yeah we had an Intellivision and some old apple 2e. But the Nintendo was different for me because that was the first time I saved up and bought a big ticket item myself(with some help from the parents I’m sure). Same for the sega ms. After that a lot of the consoles were gifts as my mom was an attorney by then, my sisters were long moved out and we could actually afford things for me. Lol
  23. I still remember pulling the little paper sheet thing that toys r us had and walking up to the front with all of my lawn mowing money and mom. Then getting to pay for it and going over to the cage and watching them get it out and pass it through to me. That day and the day I also did the same for a sega were burned into my memory. Been chasing those highs with every console since
