Great song.

2 + 2 is four, minus one that's three, quick maths.

i mean he can be funny when he isn’t just jumping around and screaming like a 4 yr old. ive seen a few videos where he actually said funny things. the novelty wears off pretty quick though.

lol isnt it funny hearing two americans discuss the futtybol

They shut the shit down
The pruh-meership

He got the play off system wrong though.

He is right though, 'it's the most impossible sports story'.

It's one of them where in 50 years you will be telling people about it.

yeah, noticed that. ian edwards seems like a decent guy but he never talks clearly, always seems to stutter and fumble over his words. i tried to listening to his podcast (it's based around prem league futbol) but just couldn't be bothered to keep it on because it's too hard to follow what he's saying.

i always like it when people around here are into european footy though, i hope the market keeps growing that way rather than towards the MLS. just the other day an older man stopped me in a store to chat about Man United, you don't get that too much where i live. :cool:

i remember being in class a few days after they had officially won it and one of my mates and i were trying to explain to everyone just how remarkable it was. of course it's totally lost on anyone who doesn't know the sport, but it's amazing that we were able to witness it.

I dunno man, that's the only thing that stops me from wanting it to grow in North America.

I don't have anything against individual supporters personally, but another 300m people on top of the entire continents of Africa and Asia following the same handful of teams in England wouldn't be good for my club or anyone else outside of the Sky 6.

Bet I sound like a right Nigel Farage :cool:

Most sports fans understand how big an upset Buster Douglas vs Tyson was. It was like that but about 30 times in a row :cool:

Do you know where I could watch some games of the team? A season with a narrative might be interesting enough to make me care.

i can understand that. i just hate the MLS and while i want to support a more local football league, i can't get behind their attempts to americanize the sport.

doubt you'll be able to find full games but if you're interested there are a ton of documentaries available on YouTube about their season. i genuinely think witnessing what happened could turn a non-fan into a die hard. it's the ultimate underdog story. you cannot write something more unbelievable than this.

It's only ten minutes. Wouldn't recommend looking for old games really. All the big moments will be in that.

*BORING FOOTBALL INFO POST*

To appreciate what they did, you have to understand that the league has been monopolised by a handful of teams spending hundreds of millions of pounds every year, with the top five or six squads absolutely stacked with star internationals. Any time a team outside of that elite group starts to progress by building a team capable of challenging, the billionaire clubs buy their players, they are back to square one and the cycle continues. The only way to do it is to spend billions yourself if you get taken over by foreign investors, but this club spent next to nothing on no mark players.

That league win bucked the trend, they are a small club who had never been champions in their 100+ year history (their manager had never won the league either) and were in the lower leagues a year or two before, hence 5000-1 odds.

Yeah that's fair enough tbh.

I reckon MLS will grow, might have said before that eventually I think top players will start to go there during their peak years. If the wages were on par with top European clubs then why not play over there? Especially if there was an intercontinental competition where the European elite played against the North Americans. That would mean you could play in the US and still play in top level competition.

I'm talking decades here though.

yeah it's inevitable. i hate the idea of football in a 20 team, one league format though. with play-offs at the end of a season and no relegation/promotion. drafts and salary caps. signing players out of college and all the sleazy actions that accompany it. the thing is, in america business owners frequently buy sports teams just as an asset. it's not like football where you have smaller local teams who give the Jamie Vardy's a way to make a name for themselves, or big teams a la Leeds getting relegated and changing the shape of a league. these variables are what gives football the most unique professional sport system in the world.

Would you eat a monkey?

Under what circumstances are we talking about?

You're in a gourmet restaurant, money is no object because your wealthy friend has the bill covered, and monkey is tonight's special. Your friend suggests that you try it.

I think it would have to be a survival scenario for me. Like, if I'm starving to death and there is a monkey around? Monkey soup motherfuckers.

I'd most certainly do it in that situation. In my scenario, it would depend on the restaurant and how much faith I have in the chefs. If my friend was already getting it and it looked well prepared I would definitely try it.

I guess I'll also extend the question to apes too.

Look up Faces Of Death monkey scene.

October 31st, Halloween ting when I merk the verse

Decent line up. Seems weird seeing Dizzee there with JME, Temps etc.

very weird. T-Man kills it as always.

You got his mixtape Q? All Star Pars. Came out a couple of years too late but it's really solid. Some classics on it.

And yeah Next Hype is a Grime classic no doubt about that.

yup, great tape.

go for it. the more the merrier.

I created one about comic books. Do whatever the hell you want.

Q-Man posted this elsewhere but it's too good to not post on the spam thread.

'His wife knows she is getting Collymore'd tonight' :D:D

Your memes are ****ing stupid.

TBF this is a music forum where it's reasonable to assume that at least a few people will get that.

That is a myth

I'm planning on getting ^ that album for Christmas this year on vinyl.

It's about me.

No it's still ****ing stupid.

You know what's not stupid? Playing things in a blues scale on a piano app on your phone while people talk because it makes everything seem like an old cop movie.
