@KingKnightEd Yeah, my point being that if they aren’t interested in having that conversation at that moment, it’s not worth having. You and more importantly the player, aren’t going to get anything out of it.

@BMichaels22 I don’t know that a child should ‘lead’ that level of conversation to be honest but if you refer to my original post I did say that the child should be interested in the conversation.

People on socials telling you to not speak to your child about the game on the car ride home, goes exactly contrary to the research on feedback. Should you be screaming and shouting at your child over a game? NO! Should you talk to them about what they feel/think/saw and what you observed? And have a healthy chat about it? Absolutely! Never has there been so much nonsense from washed up former ‘pros’ or mid level directors at small clubs filming themselves in their car on their drive home “I don’t know who needs to hear this”, or “the fastest way to screw up your kid is…”. Nonsense. If a child ran in front of a car, you would instantly tell them in the moment and just after (and probably forever more) that “cars can kill you, please don’t do it again”. As long as you are not a bore. As long as your child expresses an interest. As long as you are not aggressive with the feedback, immediate feedback is the best received feedback. ‘Coaches’ and ‘psychological experts’ telling you to say nothing and just enjoy it for what it is, are the same coaches still using cone drills and telling you that there is no such thing as competitive football/soccer. Everyone in life requires feedback. Just be careful how you administer it.

@RepRalphNorman @NumbersUSA Why are you proud of getting an A+ rating from a company that is led by a white nationalist???

Securing our border is ESSENTIAL to protecting Americans. And results MATTER. I am beyond proud to receive an A+ RATING for working to reduce illegal immigration. @NumbersUSA

It's utterly ridiculous that we have all these supposed billionaire geniuses running around, and their greatest innovation of our lifetime has been stealing our personal data to sell us targeted ads.

@THEChrisKessell Everybody has to make sure they get their money! None of these leagues actually care about what’s best for the development of the players in the US

So we have what... 2 levels of MLS Next ECNL and ECNL-RL N1 and N2 Elite 64 This is how many players? 100,000+? Why do we need all this?

“There are two ways to beat the opponent: I overpower or I surprise. If I have to overpower, it’s because I gave them the possibility of defending first.” — Ángel Cappa "Research by Kempe and Memmert, analysing over three hundred goals across the European Championship, Copa América, and World Cup tournaments, confirmed what Menotti and Cappa understood intuitively: high creativity, defined as feints, misdirection, and unpredictable sequences, correlates directly with goal success."

@Slotoholic 💯 Not even looking at the ball!

That’s a red card all day!! 🤦🏻‍♂️ x.com/bfernandesball…

Regardless of what the result ended up being today, Slot has to go ZERO plan for a match that the opponent is going to be very predictable in how they’ll play and just no ideas at all Yes 2nd half was better, but that was due more to poor mistakes by Utd rather than any changes

@_Wraithborne_ @warloccszn @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Bro… what are you talking about? The study was from 2 years after the beginning of the ban. The ban lasted for ten years. They then said they a lot of the analysis were done with 1 calendar year of data. You can’t make a conclusion from that. Ffs.

@BMichaels22 @warloccszn @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman You couldn't even finish reading the image you posted 🤦 They were hardly used prior to the ban. Of course the ban did relatively nothing.

@_Wraithborne_ @warloccszn @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Boy if everyone would actually read the article that they cite. “This study was conducted with data col- lected within 24 months of the ban’s passage; a number of the analyses were conducted with only 1 calen- dar year of postban data.”

@BMichaels22 @warloccszn @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Boy, if only everyone had access to this thing called the internet to learn commonly understood data. ojp.gov/pdffiles1/nij/…

@_Wraithborne_ @warloccszn @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Guy takes picture of headline with zero link or reference. Must be true.

@BMichaels22 @warloccszn @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Well, that didn't go as planned.

@CornOnJacobb Just because his small brain can’t comprehend it, doesn’t mean it’s not substantial. I’ll reiterate: Limiting access is not “punishment” Assault Weapons bans are effective We are the only country that has this problem, and it’s due to the easy access to weapons.

@BMichaels22 He probably blocked you because you have no substantive argument…. You didn’t even try to argue any of the evidence he provided, you want to “but Trump so your option doesn’t matter” which is the equivalent to a 5 year old going “nuh uhhh”. It’s pathetic

@CornOnJacobb What did he post that was a verified fact?

@BMichaels22 Literally just explained it to you…. You had no clue what you were saying, you got called out on it with documented facts. And every reply since has been you trying to cry about Trump like that changes anything. It’s actually pathetic

@CornOnJacobb @2ndATexan @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman And 2A boy blocked me because he can’t handle anyone disagreeing with him.

@BMichaels22 @2ndATexan @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Facts don’t change based on someone’s political beliefs… bro presented facts. To question that simply because he supports someone is beyond retarded.

@CornOnJacobb @2ndATexan @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Omg bro… I was being facetious. And calling people the R word to feel more like a man is not the flex you think it is.

@BMichaels22 @2ndATexan @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Also egg prices are down… fred.stlouisfed.org/series/APU0000… so this comment is double retarded

@CornOnJacobb @2ndATexan @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman If you are dumb enough to still follow Trump, it shows a huge lack of critical thinking. So why would I respect your opinion on any other topic?

@BMichaels22 @2ndATexan @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman What does Trump have to with anything?

@2ndATexan @CornOnJacobb @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Bro… you honestly believed a lifetime conman was going to release the Epstein Files, lower egg prices, and not go to war! 😂

@BMichaels22 @CornOnJacobb @Rep_Clyde @RepRalphNorman Leftoid's only rebuttal (ever) are ad hominem fallacies, whataboutery, hyperbole, false equivalencies, false dichotomies, non sequiturs, conjecture, emotional blackmail and/or strawman arguments. You've managed to cover nearly all of them in one statement.
