I ****ing hate threads like this. "OHHH SPORTZ BALL LMAO XD. I CAN'T BELIEVE MORONS LOVE THIS BARBARIC **** I DON'T UNDERSTAND AND HAVE NO PHYSICAL ABILITY TO DO MYSELF."

**** off, it aint a competition between hobbies. Some people enjoy watching high level athletes compete, what is weird about that?

NT,  you project often, you're crass, and you're a hypocrite.. hahahahaha

These aren't good / bad things , no judgement on part of Tp4,    but know that improvements are possible, and one can not remain blind to these shortcomings forever.

Dude, I'm Bostonian - all this **** is outta love. I would never talk **** to someone I actually hated, I'd just say  'hey **** you buddy' then internalize it until I die of an aneurysm 25 years later from stress. The American way.
You say crass hypocrite - I say honest cynic, brotha ;)

You're right, it's strange that there's nothing.  Two years ago (Euros) I watched most of the games which were on when I wasn't at work, this year my only commitment has been supporting my cousin through a lengthly hospital stay yet I only watched the England match.  I try to watch the highlights but have missed some of them too :-\

I suspect I'm in the low mood -> do less -> mood lowers cycle, but I probably wouldn't have posted in a thread on it let alone started one.

"leg ricochet spheroid object threads" wow, that is so impressive. How erudite of you to be a sophisticated man who wouldn't be caught dead discussing sports seriously. Oh, whoops, I said the S word. Peasant me.

Yes, surely we have "won" when few people in the forum dare discuss sports, and instead make inane posts about whatever occurred to them while having their morning ****.  :rolleyes:

I was just thinking..

Heading is so common in soccer, especially at the advanced lvls.

it's FOR SURE causing CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy), which had been responsible for the current thorough withdrawal of middle-class children from American Football.


The final solution may be for everyone to play basketball..  or League of Legend.. but u know..

Post by: tp4tissue on Mon, 02 July 2018, 14:15:29
jpn is running hot right now...  they should really pace it from here on..

still charging at every stray..

If they push too hard for another 10-15 minutes,  it's going to be real tough to defend the last half hour, and that could easily give belgium an in to swing back..

okokokok...  belgium has the momentum.. jpn should pace it down.. and go to penalty kicks..

If they keep pressing.  there's going to be too many errors against the team with currently more momentum. 

If there were 30 minutes left, maybe go hard,  but there's not enough time to qualm the spirits..



Therefore ideally for jpn, play defensive, and go to pk

Penalty kicks are way too close to the goal imho..

They aught to make them kick from a little further away..


This is hardly a test of the keeper's skill at this range..

Having had a shorter last match and an extra day to recover I can't see France losing as long as it's still hot over there.  Not bothered either way really, just hoping for a good match.
