  1. A future Surly asshole. Patenting well, you are.
  2. Breffiss after a win always tastes better. Opa’s jap & chee, eggs, more chee, toasted tortillas, Valentina’s. Black coffee.
  3. My daughter’s squad was winning their U11 division (/proud-dad story, bro) at the same time, so I only just now got to watch the match. * I thought the international break would negate the “letdown match” after the massive huge win over City. Wrong. We were terrible for 75’ and lucky not to be 3-nil down. Then their keeper had a howler, we level, and should have won on Eddie’s shot. * Hopefully that’s out of our system, cause we were poor today. * Ramsdsle 1000% deserves the next PL match in goal; Raya screwed up badly on their second, and he did everything he could to hand them a third. If Rambo can’t get a chance after that crap-tastic performance from the guy who took his job, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him press for a transfer and maybe as soon as January. He’s fouled harder and more often that anyone else in the league. Cucurella had two yellow-worthy swipes at his legs in the 1H and no doubt would have been off had he hacked at Harry Kane the same way. But we can all guess why Saka, a vital part of the England setup and one of the top 3 players for them, isn’t afforded the same level of protection from the refs. Hate to say it, but it is what it is.
  4. Gasly’s wearing a tribute helmet to François Cevert this weekend. I didn’t know his story till I watched the 30 for 30 on Sir Jackie. Damn if it didn’t get a bit dusty listening to him describe it. To drive an F1 car in those days, those guys had to have balls of solid titanium.
  5. Awesome. Hope he races a good as that lid looks.
  6. Pathetic. But, then again, it's Haas.
  7. Where you been, @shadow_operative? And 70m for Rolls Royce Saliba is low; he's worth at least least 100-110m.
  8. Vanessa Kirby: "If you look down, you'll see a surprise... You'll always want it..."
  9. So no one bothered to notice during the entire bid process until just now that SoFi's dimensions aren't wide enough for soccer pitch? Maybe. But, as always, I'm guessing the real answer to the question/problem is money. Specifically, how the massive pot of revenue will get split. "The Athletic has been told that FIFA officials have been surprised by the tenacity of U.S. cities and stadium owners during discussions, and they are experiencing a very different dynamic to the relationship they experienced for the 2022 tournament in Qatar. "In Qatar, the perception among many observers was that the Gulf state craved the prestige and privilege of hosting a tournament, with the state bearing the costs of a project estimated to have cost over $200bn. Now, however, FIFA is negotiating with local cities and businessmen who are seeking to run sustainable operations and fighting a harder bargain." https://theathletic.com/4882751/2023/09/21/world-cup-2026-kroenkes-sofi-fifa/ 100%. Jerrah will whore himself out with zero fucks given. No doubt he'll cram a bunch of erecter set bleachers into every nook and cranny of the stadjum again.
  10. Yes Haas did pull the Russian flag off their car after Putin went Full Putin, but they had to do so BECAUSE THEY DRAPED THEIR CAR IN IN THE FUCKING RUSSIAN FLAG. It's going to be funny if when Andretti routinely finishes well clear of Haas.
  11. FIFY, because we all know that’s how you would have sold the show to 1980s dad.
  12. Not just oil money, but "Oil Money From City's Owner." Not a great look, Bob.
  13. Only guess is he's been been out ~ a month and isn't match-fit for 90 mins yet. Definition of "impact sub" though. Hopefully he's over whatever he had, because we're so much more dangerous with him in the XI.
  14. Yup. For as disjointed as we have looked so far, we're a joint top and just a point behind last year's pace. I'll take it (don't blow a lead with Fulham down to 10 men and we're a point ahead.) Unlike last year (where we clicked from the jump and there was nowhere to go but down), we're far from near our potential and will only get better as Kai and Rice get more integrated into the side and dudes get healthy. I think our best XI will eventually include Rice and Partey in midfield. Get healthy, keep improving, and win the whole f'n thing.
  15. Apparently Arteta took the decision out of Southgate’s hands:
  16. And, as always, Uncle Ian is all of us:
  17. Arsenal need to lock the doors. No chance we should let him leave London Colney for some friendlies
  18. Rice is worth every penny. He was massive. Ødegaard, Eddie, and Jesus ran their asses off. “Rolls Royce Saliba” had Haaland in his pocket all match. And Martinelli. So so damn good to have him back. Both shots on target in 2H were his. I scared my dog. Super Mik knew exactly what we needed. The subs were all involved in the buildup to the goal. What a win, boys. What a win. Let’s build on it. Let’s fucking go, you Gunners. Lets. Fucking. Go.
  19. One nil, to the Arsenal ONE NIL, to the Arsenal on nil.
  20. Fucking finally
