šŸ™„ No Holds Barred Thread - A Haney/DavetheWave Production

I don’t know for sure, but I’d guess the missing shots come after a dead ball turnover, where there is no opportunity for transition.

Yeah, I was thinking probably out of bounds plays.

Whoa, @wahoo19 just looked at the plot of that movie. That’s one way to rise up the corporate ladder…

Yeah the ā€œcompany manā€ plot is very of its time but a damn good movie nonetheless, would probably be looked on a little differently if that movie came out today

On top of everything else it’s a great Christmas movie. I try to watch it every year (along with THE MIRACLE OF MORGAN’S CREEK).

This looks like a really cool project and I’ll be interested to see the results.

So in Yiddish and borrowed into English… it means something like ā€œgood personā€ or ā€œold good personā€ā€¦ I’d equate it to OG for a loose equivalent…

… but in German, Mensch officially means ā€œhumansā€ā€¦ so in an every day sentence it means that… however if you yell it in frustration like… ā€œMensch!ā€ā€¦ it means ā€œf%cking sh!t!ā€ā€¦ German is weird.

The high press only works if you have some runners on your team though… if not, it can fail miserably.

Oh yeah I put 5 of my best 6 runners and tacklers up for the first 2 minutes after every goal… allowed or scored… I also don’t pigeon hole my kids into positions at 8U, 10U and 12U… I want them learning the whole game… also gives me flexibility for no shows and sickness… also allows my midfielders to rest for parts of games by moving them back to defense and moving defenders up … my goalies also play striker at times as well.

Ugh… I’m in the middle of my litany of annual training CBTs… and lucky me, as an Air Force Reservist, I have to do them for the military too… so it’s HOURS of these dumb training modules…

Would you rather…
  • Complete 4 hours of annual compliance training for your job?
  • Watch a 4 hour VT football game where they roll over a Division 2 team with 10 VT fans?

Alcaraz vs Medvedev… crazy good stuff by Medvedev

By both. Carlos saved 3 match points.

In post game interview he said that before the match he had thought he needed on a scale of 1-10 to play at level 11. He felt he actually played at level 12. I agree. He made some amazing run downs and shot making.

I don’t watch a ton of tennis, but that one made me stay up. I, like most everyone else, thought Alcarez would win the 4th and 5th sets after he took care of the third one easily.

Tony’s not a good coach, he’s an awesome, HOF coach. But he’s an awesome HOF coach who’s epically bad at the first round of the tourney. We’d be better off having Tony step down and having J-Willy or Sanchez coach in the first round. As I said last March, we are even past all the ā€œsmall numbersā€ excuses. He’s just bad at it.

And we are too in our head about it – best evidenced by Ty talking about J-Willy yelling during the UMBC halftime. We are tied at 21 with a crap team in the most important game of the year, and the most memorable thing about that is that one of the coaches raised his voice? Really? That’s what you remember? Not trying to roast Ty, but the fact that THAT was the memory is telling about our mindset in those round 1s.
