  1. Agreed on the former. He played wide most of the time, and I still say Reyna could do everything Haji did but more.
  2. Can’t wait for GGG to sub in Long for Z, Ferreira for Haji, Acosta for WM, and Reyna for CP.
  3. Tactically one of the best halves I’ve seen GGG coach. Still believe we are wasting space on the field with a true 9 since we provide absolutely no service to a striker. I don’t think we would miss the holdup play versus having another player like Reyna or Aaronson on the field that can advance the ball through the middle. We don’t have any real strategy in the final third, so the more guys that can produce individual magic on the field the better.
  4. Yep, and if GGG is smart (narrator: he isn’t) he would sub AARon and Reyna in at the half. Keep the pressure at 11.
  5. Venezuela, and it’s his first WC game.
  6. God damnit. We are beating these finger sandwich eating fucks.
  7. We are sitting deep and trying to counter. Solid strat against a better team. The majority of englands possession is just swinging it around the back.
  8. I’d sit Dest regardless. Have Yedlin defend for 60 and then bring in Dest for 30 minutes of lung busting. Not sure we can hide his defensive weakness regardless, England is pretty deep.
  9. Watched the Germany game but got busy and couldn’t post until now. Japan is the model for what the US should be doing, but GGG just isn’t capable of that level of coaching. Japan plays to their strengths, and mitigates their weaknesses. It’s so simple but you have to be able to identify what you are good at and be brave enough to play systems and players that amplify those strengths.
  10. At this point I’m not sure why we even play a striker since we do nothing to provide service to them. Play Reyna up top and let him and CP just interplay off each other, bring AARon on for the first guy that gets tired. We weren’t going to win in the air against Wales, and it won’t be any better against England. Might as well try to cut them up with speed.
  11. Fuck yea. Beautiful through ball and calm finish.
  12. Surprised they didn’t go with “Biden policies add to the supply chain and inflation issues ahead of holidays.”
  13. Regardless, it’s a game of chicken and once it’s clear Trump still maintains a more than zero percentage of the R base, the party will back him if he refuses to back out. Rs know they can’t win shit with a split party vote. The R fear to alienate any of his base is paralyzing to the party leadership. Mitch hates Trump as much as many Ds, but he still tap dances around directly confronting the problem, because party uber alles.
  14. I don’t think the majority of voters look at shit like that. If the senate is already locked up for Ds, the enthusiasm from Rs will pop like a balloon. Many Rs were already holding their nose to vote for him. They aren’t going to stand in line in the cold to do it for no immediate value.
  15. Yea, no one is shitting their pants more than Kari Lake rn. She was on the fast track to a VP ticket with Trump, but now she’ll be lucky to get a gig with OAN. Trump doesn’t tolerate losers.
  16. There isn’t enough popcorn in the world for the shit show Kari will put on after losing.
  17. Shit, missed the edit window. Elon’s plan for verifying accuracy of information.
  18. Another one I forgot. Anytime we had a pre snap penalty all the Aggies around us would yell “that was us” or “we did that” even though it wasn’t loud.
  19. The people we interacted with were super nice. Quite a few olds asked us to take it easy on them before the game. The guy sitting next to my wife was from Michigan and was there because his kid went to A&M. The guys on my side were Washington transplants to Austin that were going to a game in every stadium in Texas. They had money on Florida. Our section had more Florida fans than aggies so there wasn’t much chirping from them outside of a lot of crying about the targeting call. It was my wife’s first game there. The guy next to her convinced her to join into their song with all the swaying. We did horns up whenever they talked about sawing off horns or whatever. She didn’t understand what the milk men were doing, and I couldn’t explain it.
  20. Weird things I saw at the game yesterday: guy in an FSU shirt and aggy hat girl in full Bama gear sitting with a bunch of gators. horns down constantly even though they were playing Florida. they pump a lot of noise through the speakers throughout the game, their band/crowd doesn’t do a lot outside of the occasional third down. I could hear the Florida band across the stadium multiple times. really surprised at the number of Florida fans there my seat was on a seam in the bleachers and one side of the seam was loose, so every time someone on that side sat down it pinched the shit out of the back of my calf. on a positive note, the sausage in their wrap was really good (slovacek garlic pepper jack I think?), but the nachos were damn near inedible.
  21. We sell alarm services. Most people only arm their systems in away mode. Stay mode is rare, and is almost entirely by single women or female spouses with male spouses not home. Standard security has its limitations and even if armed, has openings unless someone really is paranoid and layers a lot of devices. Standard door/window contacts only trip if opened, so if you just kick in glass and step through the hole, that sensor isn’t tripped. Glass break sensors cover a pretty small area, and most people don’t spring for having them cover every piece of glass in the home. It’s entirely possible that the system was armed, but this guy used a hammer and knocked out a bedroom window that was not in range of a glass break sensor and crawled through the opening instead of popping a pane and unlocking/opening the window to get in. Houses are really easy to break into, and even the best security system isn’t going to stop someone with intent.
