    Crocs

    When I worked in food service the slip on, closed toe and heel crocs were the best footwear. Ugly? Of course, but they were light, slip resistant, easy to clean, durable, and comfy. I wear them sometimes still but not for fashion.
  2. Don’t you know The Rabbi is in cahoots with The Ayatollah
  3. Isa Guha is literally my fav cricket commentator
  4. I think from observing how Guardiola’s teams play I’ve learned a lot on how the game has changed. People like to say he is an overrated chequebook manager, and there is a truth to that, but I fully stand by the statement the man is a genius, only so few can claim to have reinvented the wheel but he has. His strategies and tactics exploit spacing, focusing on vertical positioning instead of the typical horizontal is exceptionally novel. It really changed my perception
  5. Specialisation is a thing of the past, the clear delineation between positions and whatever FIFA/Footballer sub-position is a thing of the past. A varied set of skills is more important than being the best crosser in the world, but bad at shooting. That’s why Brydog is right about wingers, they aren’t the old midfielders playing out wide like Beckham and Giggs, they are forwards and need the skills to score goals as much as passing and crossing, but they still need the qualities and skills Beckham and Giggs had. It doesn’t matter if they are 170cm if they have the technique of header accurately they will score eventually. For example fullbacks are barely strict defenders anymore, they are transitional players that move the ball vertically, more like a well rounded midfielder, well that’s where I think they do most of their work anyway.
  6. united have a massive and bloated squad, they need to learn how to cut players
  7. Sheffield did win, and United will get good in time under ten Hag. U no eye m ->
  8. ten Hag is good tho, the longer he is there the more stable they’ll be
  9. Anybody new is better than the same old codgers saying the same boring observations ‘the little magician has a magic left peg like’
  10. West Australia would be more appropriate.
  11. It’s popular but they don’t have the necessary authority to secede. I think there was a court case years ago that it either has to be a revolution (lol) or be recognised by the 49 other states.
  12. It won’t be federally recognised because it doesn’t meet the requirements set for seceding.
  13. They have been great at union busting. What they do is they put massive pressure on the individual store managers to fuck with employees that are trying to unionise. You need 40 hours? Here is 30. Also you will close the cafe at 10pm on Saturday but Sunday you need to be in at 4am. One minute late? That’s grounds for termination.
  14. Of course sports washing is real, how naive do you have to be to rubbish the concept of positive association and reinforcement? It's one of the most basic mind tricks.
  15. You say this full aware that whatever you transmit to Brian, would have him inside a pine box within the weekend.
