Arsenal beat Liverpool to win the community shield. As I said Arteta is a class manager. He seems to get every player in his charge to play two or more levels above where they did before him and install total confidence in them. And tactically he seems to be sharp. He's now turned a team in disarra...

They're democratic cities aren't they?

The trouble with dems is they dont want to piss off their base by going against BLM protestors but end up inadvertently opening the door for anarchists to run riot.

Read online the other day someone refer to Biden as the democrat equivalent of George W Bush and when I thought about it for a second I think that it works. He's more of a frontman than the man. No-one takes him that seriously but he's an unimposing, unthreatening nice guy who is hard to dislike. T...

He has always been gaffe prone. The stutter is what can make him seem forgetful. Go with what he actually says, the ideas he comes out with, the responses he has: he's a mile away from Trump's braindead dribbling, let alone Reagan's senility. I wasn't aware he had a stutter but there's clips of him...

No serious commenter would genuinely cast doubt on Biden's mental acuity, given the stammer issue. He's clearly compos mentis and a lot more coherent than many currently in Govt. He's slightly older than his opponent, but clearly in better mental health than him (or Reagan, if you want other compar...

He had a Class 3 felony. So he had sex with a girl who was aged between 15 and 17. Except it wasnt class 6, it was class 3. Yes, that's what I said. https://rrlawaz.com/felony/sexual-abuse/ A Class 3 Felony under this statute (Sexual Abuse of a victim under 15 years old) carries a possible sentence...

Dont just make things up :roll: :wtf: He's 36. In 2002, when he was convicted, he was 18. From https://www.azleg.gov/ars/13/01405.htm Sexual conduct with a minor who is under fifteen years of age is a class 2 felony and is punishable pursuant to section 13-705. Sexual conduct with a minor who is at...

Depends on the state. Some right wing neckbeards have done digging and he was convicted in 2002 as an 18 year old and in the state where he did it the charge is for having sex with a minor aged between 15 and 17. But that's not really the point. Dude did his time...he was murdered. Edit: Just looki...

You do know that being on the registrar as a sex offender could mean he was 16 years old and he had a 15 year old girlfriend? Do people usually get 10 years in prison for that? Depends on the state.

That’s great. I mean... that makes it all ok, right?

It certainly makes me feel better about the whole debacle.

Oh, and just to clarify, I wasn't looking for a reason why people were chasing him, I was simply pointing out how mental they were considering how he was armed. Of course, these known criminals who were out rioting were only doing what any fine upstanding citizen would do - trying to make a citizen...

In terms of popular sports I just dont get, I'll say UFC.

It's all good until one guy performs a takedown or whatever it's called, and then its just 2 sweaty men rolling around on the floor together for the remaining 4 minutes of the round.

Open carry is a fucking mental US law isn't it. And concealed carry for that matter.

I get if you have guns at home under lock and key but being able to wander down the street with a pistol under your shirt and a rifle in your hand is absurd.

He's a member of a militia in Illinois; find me a militia that isn't an excuse for white supremacist to tool up, & spew hate. He's the original "Illinois Nazi" Ok. He's obviously a gun nut but white supremacist feels like a leap. He's a white guy who showed up armed in opposition to a...

FTFY Where are you hearing he's a white supremacist? He's a member of a militia in Illinois; find me a militia that isn't an excuse for white supremacist to tool up, & spew hate. He's the original "Illinois Nazi" Ok. He's obviously a gun nut but white supremacist feels like a leap.

I dont know what went down with the first shooting but in the video I saw there's a mob of people chasing him, one guy swinging a skateboard at his head and another armed with a handgun. Honestly I'm not surprised he shot them. Cant comment on the first shooting though. Maybe he's in the wrong ther...

The video I saw of him being chased in the street and shooting, there's clearly someone saying that he's shot someone. He's an active threat basically.

Fair comment. Terry was a better defender. I'm a United fan but Maguire is very overrated,

Who rates Maguire?

1. Rugby 2. Baseball 3. AFL 4. Football (Soccer) 5. Cricket I've been trying to get in to baseball over the last few weeks, I thought I should like it.

Messi is a lead weight preventing Barca from finding a path forward at this stage. He's still a brilliant player with a lot to offer but he either needs to work harder on the pitch or accept he's not the main man any more if he's unwilling to change. Neither seems likely so a payday at a lesser tea...

Ronald Koeman told Lionel Messi 'your privileges in the squad are OVER' during showdown talks... and that was the final straw for frustrated superstar who then faxed club to say he's quitting, sparking fan protests outside Nou Camp Good start to the new job Ronald :lol:. You'd think Barca could do ...

I'm guessing the deficit is debt. I don't remember the Uk turning hard in favour of MMT. The UK defecit is 60 billion. 2 trillion defecit would be somewhat concerning.

On the plus side the Defecit is lower than it was a decade ago. Wahay

It'll actually be quite sad to see Messi leave Barcelona.

2006-2016 or so was a fantastic era for Football, a golden age imo. We'll all look back at the Messi and Ronaldo generation very fondly.

Meh. Think of all the extra cash you'll have to invest in decent players.

Tell you what, swap deal, Messi for Lingard.

He's going to go to City isn't he.

In other, totally unrelated news City have signed a new sponsorship deal with Etihad worth £999,999,999,999. Good for them.

They've even got a picture of the flier when he thinks about Llanelli

Cant wait until this ban everything fad pisses off. It's all so tiresome.

Boxing, Rugby and Football. Dont have much time for anything else.

Ok that's a lie, I just cant be bothered to invest time in other sports.
