Society & Culture Things in life you just don't understand - Part 2

Ah fair enough. Each to their own I guess.

 

[Richo is God]

Cos of more goals? It's poorer football by quite a long margin.

Of course it's not as good. There are clubs over 100 years old with clubs spending tens of millions of dollars on a single player. Euro snobs won't give it a chance though

Not just the goals, but the style of play. Its more attacking and free flowing. Compared to the EPL where its a lot of passing around, switching the play trying to find that opening. A League players don't have the skill for that shit and its balls to the wall attack. Its great.

The thing that drives me not is a player getting it in space out on the wing before 9 times out of 10 completely shanking the cross to nobody because they have the skill of a Belorussian peasant.

Victory thankfully don't have too much of an issue with the likes of Rojas, Troisi and FBK doing most of the crossing. But I get the point. Anyone expecting the same amount as talent as the over seas leagues are just crazy though.

What are the passes like in a league compared to premier league Quivorir?

Pretty much the same. Some kicked with the left leg, others with the right. Rarely you might even see a kick with both.

Interesting. So how would Melbourne Victory go against Arsenal?

They'd get flogged simply because of the talent differences. What a silly question.

Not really. Just because one is more talented than the other doesn't mean it's an automatic result.

David Alaba has been doing that all season, and his weekly wage is probably bigger than the entire worth of the A-league.

The gigantic gap between the two talent levels would.

Reading a now deleted post telling me to take a cyanide pill in a main board thread

That was a little extreme

 

[Quivorir]

Can't imagine why anyone would tell you to do that.

That's why I'm legit shook, because I'm as nice as pie

 

[JackOutback]

Maybe they are just more xtreme than you.

I feel like taking one after reading your posts at times

Besart Berisha would have to be one of the worst offenders when it comes to diving in the A-League.

This dive in the Grand Final a few years ago was a disgrace.

That was in his brisbane roar days. As a Victory he has cut it out of his game

 

[Quivorir]

Not completely.

Beats watching a game of footy 490 times.

Funnily enough seeing that gif it's how I imagine you would be

5 of the top 10 grossing games on the App Store are slot machine games. People are actually paying money to win fake money.

Some of the games in-app "currency" costs are as much as $160 real life dollars.

Plenty of slot machine games outside the top 10 grossing too.

Who are these people, and where did their life go so wrong?

Bizarre.

I doubt casino opening hours are 24/7 everywhere.

So bet on online casinos where you can win real money.

 

[quotemokc]

Don't understand why people waste money on electronic systems that are rigged to a certain payout %.

Might as well stick to cards or sports betting where you can somewhat predict the outcome.
