  1. He’s got a few extra days to rest and Carolina on the schedule next.
  2. Birmingham City F.C. Down 1-0 to Charlton
  3. Starting Coleman as well due to no other options. I’d lean Kirk over Flowers but there might be rain in Florida. Flowers feels like TD or bust at this point but seems to have a higher ceiling if need the risk.
  4. Cream cheese is an underrated option for burgers and sandwiches. Sub sprouts and cream cheese for the sliced cheese at Thunder Cloud
  5. movie is brilliant
  6. Israel attacks hezbollah in Lebanon.... “We had to slap it [Israel] in the face, otherwise it would keep moving forward,” Hamidreza Jalaeipour, a prominent sociologist close to the reformist faction, said in a discussion on the application Clubhouse. “If there is a war, it will be imposed on us.” no, no you absolutely did not, and will probably face consequences for doing so
  7. Maybe he is playing 4 D chess for January
  8. Hard to fight after a 5 taco lunch.
  9. The tile game would be out of control.
  10. Brilliant. Tacos and delicious salsas could bring world peace.
  11. Sounds promising but not over. I assume they will use this time to lock in a finalized deal before the deadline and if they cant they strike in January?
  12. Hope she gets a sweet kia
  13. What is the guarantee the strike wont continue in January?
  14. He is clearly banged up. No explosion or violent lateral cuts. Rest him if not 100%
  15. CBS Austin ran the same story. There is nothing out there contradicting the account of the incident. https://cbsaustin.com/amp/news/nation-world/volleyball-player-injured-after-transgender-opponent-spiked-ball-at-her-speaks-out
  16. Not putting a minor on blast seems like the prudent thing for media outlets to do. There were many witnesses to the game, and if this was a conspiracy, that would be a hundred people participating in the ruse. Regardless of the rules, she had no intention for the incident and wouldn’t deserve to be doxxed for following the rules adults decided.
  17. Beat Serena 6-1 Venus 6-2 (Venus was the better player when their careers began) "I was sitting there [in the tournament office] when the girls were saying they could beat any man ranked outside 200," Braasch told Fialkov. "I said ‘I’m 203 in the world and we can do it if you want to'. I [lost in the first round of singles and doubles] so I had another five days in Australia and had nothing to do." The bearded Braasch, wearing glasses resembling swimming goggles and a baggy Reebok shirt, looked more like a mad scientist than a tennis pro as he squared off against Serena on Court 17 at Melbourne Park in a match played before a few hundred fans without lines people, a chair umpire or TV cameras. The quirky lefty's herky-jerky serve and masterful skill shifting spins and creating obscure angles befuddled the teenage Serena as Braasch prevailed, 6-1. Venus, who supported Serena from the stands, challenged Braasch immediately after the set to only a slightly better result. The German, who had a fondness for smoking Marlboros during some changeovers, extended rallies and deployed the same disorientating array of spins defeating Venus, 6-2.
  18. Serena averages 106 on her serve and a max of 128. High school boys serve over 100mph in the high levels of UTSA, and routinely hit and return serves this hard. The pace on their groundstrokes is also equal, but the consistency and shot making are not world class like Serena. I've seen the radar guns at academies and tournaments etc. She would still destroy them in a match, but return of serve/win a point etc wouldn't be an issue for many.
  19. 1st issue that is completely ignored is safety. Example 1 Payton McNabb. RALEIGH, N.C. (TND) — A high school volleyball player who suffered severe head and neck injuries resulting in long-term concussion symptoms after a girl she says is transgender spiked a ball in her face is now speaking out publicly for the first time. "Due to the North Carolina High School Athletic Association policy allowing biological males to compete against biological females my life has forever been changed," Payton McNabb, now a senior at Hiwassee Dam High School in Murphy, North Carolina, said during a Thursday committee hearing of the North Carolina state legislature. McNabb indicated that, to this day, she is still recovering from her injuries, and continues to face other health struggles as a result of what happened, such as impaired vision, partial paralysis on the right side of her body, constant headaches, anxiety and depression. Injured volleyball player speaks out after alleged transgender opponent spiked ball at her (wlos.com) 2. One of her own teammates has joined the lawsuit against her SJSU Volleyball Player Joins Lawsuit Against NCAA’s Transgender Policies (thespearsjsu.com) 3. There is not one Olympic or world record that a female holds over a male. To deny or downplay physical differences between the sexes in nonsense. Florence Griffith-Joyner set the WR in 1988 with a 10.49 100m. This is accomplished by thousands of high school boys every year.
  20. Yup, it is not race, but that is convenient crutch as opposed to saying they bring no significant amount of fans to a brand. Clark is bringing a significant amount of fans to the sport/sponsors (like Tiger, MJ etc), and also to her fellow WNBA players who had little to none before. Much easier to blame outside forces than face the reality that you aren't marketable because not enough people care to watch you play basketball.
  21. Have to think the Miami D coordinator and is not an idiot, but every single time Ridley is subbed out they run the ball. Every single play
