Can someone ruro 'splain to an American what the cutoff table position is in the epl to be considered a big club
>>158315786it REALLY makes you think
>>158315792It really does....
>>158310483A "big club" is defined as any that is owned by an Americhad or an Arab

Yamal initiates the aggression, but only the guy he attacked gets carded after Yamal dives from the lightest headtap ever.
>>158233511this is nuts

>>158234189Fact

Still laughing.
>your preferred sport>something you genuinely, unironically appreciate about a different sport culture
>>158293291Football (European) is first for me, even though I like some other sports as well>salary caps are a good idea all in all, though nearly impossible to implement fairly and control in a truly global sport>tailgating seems cool>Americans often have neat marching bands for their sports, I like that and think this could be implemented here>While I find it quite weird in some ways (how much money is being spent on it?), I cannot help but respect the existence of these big college/high school sports programs in general. Seems like good culture there altogether even though it is a strange business not immune to the usual greed>baseball is a sport with tons of unique traditions in general, it seemsAnd to name something else than American sports>China's love for table tennis always reminds me that even "niche" sports can have a really good position in big markets>rugby is a gentlemen's sport, rugby players seem to behave much better than football players, for example when it comes to dealing with the ref. And simulations
>>158293291hockeyi like how in european sports managers and coaches are held accountable to goals they set because they cant get bailed out by a wild card birth into the playoffs. way too many frauds and nepobabbies manage to keep a coaching job in the nhl for decades just by finishing in 16th place.
Poverty ballI admire the helm cams in formula 1
>>158308632Basketball and baseball do as well, it's just localized in the same way rugby and cricket but for different areas. Basketball in particular is growing quickly in some places where it was more or less dormant.
>>158314489"Simulation" just isn't worth it in rugby because>TMO/VAR has been there for longer>with more supstitutions per game and positions where players are expected to play only a half, your coach will just sub you out if he thinks you're hurt>injury protocols happen more often so if you pretend you've been hit badly, you'll just be sent for a concussion protocol and leave your team a man down for a few minutes with possibly no upside>if you start being a little shit like that, there are far more ways for the other team to take your name rough you up while staying well within the rules>the best you can do is give your team a penalty position and create a yellow card for the other team. The former can easily be drawn legally in better ways (position yourself in a way that will cause others to foul during a ruck etc), the latter is pretty difficult to getAll of that is in addition to a culture that does not encourage it.There just isn't the incentive for it because for the most part rugby "setpieces" aren't as game-changing as they are in football and they are easier to get legally.

The president of Bayern-Munich didn't think so: "Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness heavily criticised Mesut Ozil on Monday after the Arsenal playmaker announced that he was retiring from the Germany national team.Ozil announced his withdrawal from international football on Sunday at the age of 29, citing racism."I'm glad this nightmare is over," Hoeness told reporters at the Munich airport. "He's been playing crap for years."The last tackle he won was before the 2014 World Cup. And now he is hiding himself and his poor performances behind this photo."His 35 million [social media] followers, that of course do not actually exist in the real world, ensure that Ozil has played exceptionally when he successfully finds his man with a square ball."Hoeness, speaking before flying to the United States for his club's International Champions Cup matches, questioned how valuable Ozil's contribution has been to Joachim Low's team in recent years."The development in our country is a catastrophe," he said. "We should break it down again to what it is -- sport -- and on a sporting level, Ozil hasn't added anything to the national team for years. When was his last good international [game]?"Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>158308893What a strange thread and should probably commit suicide to be honest for having posted it
>>158313592Hoeneß is the biggest cuck around. This country has one (1) party that says Germans are an ethnic group and should continue to exist as such - and Hoeneß basically tells every newspaper how much he hates them and how they and their supporters should fuck off and be ashamed. He'd buy 500 Africans in an instant if he thought it's a good deal for Bayern. Likewise, he'd suck off Özil if Özil had been a Bayern player during a successful season
>>158313968Yeah..idk, maybe I just say random shit anyway

I don't get the Chargers and Bengals. Both have had franchise quarterbacks. Its not like they just got them, they've had them for like half a decade at this point. Getting a reliable top 15 franchise QB is literally the hardest part.How is it possible they haven't been able to assemble the other pieces around them by this point? How are these teams still floundering?

Hockey doesn’t draw anymore
>>158288100>CBC ended Hockey Night in Canada after 75 years on air, almost 100 if you go back to the original radio broadcasts, and put on cricket in its former timeslot.You absolutely have got to be kidding.
>>158286351I can't even watch a game if i wanted to. Augmented ads for midwits on every broadcast. All the canadian broadcasters (lmao j/k we are only allowed 1) try to model themselves after ESPN which results is women talking. I can save hockey in Canada easily. NCAA already gave us the chance to free ourselves from the NHL. We just need the balls to do it.
>>158291829All the best players are going to play for Sunbelt teams for a reason. Why deal with cringe fans who take that shit super serious when they can go to LA, be relatively unknown and left alone,and live like... Kings
