big 'ol sentence y'all quote:The pilot episode itself—bookended by the prelude to and eventually the culmination of a shooting incident involving the three male leads (Glover’s Earn; Earn’s rapper cousin, Alfred aka Paper Boi, whose career looks just about ready to take off; and Alfred’s best friend, Darius), and fleshed out in the middle with dry humor found in very modern and very particular social settings (like a white DJ friend of Earn’s who thinks of himself as “down” enough to use the word “nigga” with the relatively unthreatening Earn, but not so comfortable to use it later around the more outwardly street Alfred and Darius)—was a perfect distillation of what the show could be at its best: a unique voice communicating a perspective we rarely see anywhere in the mainstream entertainment industry, while also indicating that the stakes here actually mattered in a serious way.

I know this plays into your narrative that the MLS is terrible and all, but the Italian coach is just wrong and saying Gionvinco isn’t good enough to play for Italy because of MLS is just idiotic. MLS is at least as good as Liga MX, and Gignac seemed to more than be up to the task at Euro 2016. MLS is bad because of the overally top-to-bottom talent, but the best players are still good enough to play for a national team like Italy (and was in desperate need of a dynamic attacker). Jermaine Defoe went from being so-so in MLS to being the best player a Premier League team (which is obviously one of the worst but still), while Giovinco has been dynamite since he entered the league. Their coach can act like a pompous rear end all he wants, and then can kiss his job goodbye if he thinks the striker from mighty Sampdoria deserves a cap over the best player in MLS.

TheBigAristotle posted:Oh Hell Yeah Baby, The American Premier League Takeover Is Well Underway quote:"My seeds, run with his seeds, marry his seeds,” Ghostface once remarked, explaining the strategy by which an influx of money amongst a tight-knit group of individuals can be kept, collected, and grown into a sum that benefits the group for generations. He continued, “That’s how you keep Wu-Tang money all up in the family.” A similar process is currently taking place in the English Premier League, and the benefits are redounding to Americans of multiple generations. OH MY GOD THIS WAS PUBLISHED ON A WIDELY READ WEBSITE. e: I just read the rest of the article.

And he wrote this sentence because one American player is training with Swansea City and not even guaranteed to get a contract.

Liverpool's 2013/14 campaign was no ordinary football season. It was the season when everything changed. A year of hope, fantasy, adventure; where joyous reclamation met crushing disappointment and won. A season defined by many individuals, moments, goals and memories. A time when the brand of heroic and daring football - and footballers - that seemed consigned to the sepia toned era of the game's past returned. It was a season when millions of Liverpool supporters dared to dream again. And yet as records tumbled and players wowed, it was a season that ultimately transcended football, in which a fanbase were reminded what they love most about the game and their club: excitement, spirit and pride. In Make Us Dream, The Anfield Wrap's Neil Atkinson and John Gibbons take us on a journey through Liverpool's most remarkable Premier League season. In a journey that takes them from Melbourne to Merseyside and all places in between, they detail the explosion of belief from Liverpool's worldwide diaspora. Demonstrating how Liverpool's season impacted a club and support at a crossroads between its past and football's future, the authors are joined by a series of guest writers, sharing their own impressions and experiences. Between them they create a compelling and passionate narrative of a club, city and supporter base having the most fun in the world.
