@awfulannouncing This is a perfect example of the bias against Alexi lalas. The pre game analyses Lalas was pointing out this tendency among Ronaldo and hammered Ronaldo to be a team player. Thierry and Zlatan seemed to scoff at that comment until post game. 🙄

Thierry Henry perfectly describes Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo dilemma awfulannouncing.com/soccer/thierry…

@stoolpresidente Did the Knicks win?

I actually think it’s hilarious Knicks fans are still trying to make the Knicks a thing when all anybody cares about is the World Cup.

What a rotten deal we made with Iran. We get nothing (except laughter at our stupidity). They get everything, including delay and big cash!

The only consistency an autocrat demands is that you always believe what he says today, especially when it contradicts what he said yesterday and what he will say tomorrow.

@WhiteHouse You don't have to post anything. It's better to sweep this under the rug.

For decades, American leaders ignored the Iran problem. President Trump is the only President brave enough to do what should have been done for years.

But…but…but…hydration break commercials!!!

Welp, I think we're done here. Trump himself is now saying he buckled under the pressure of Hormuz. It's as bad as it could possibly be. He's saying aloud that Iran can have anything it wants because America can't afford the staring contest. If this is his own explanation in his own words, then the fact that the sanctions relief is front-loaded...suddenly becomes important. The fact that the inspections regime that will verify compliance will be negotiated by an American side that has already admitted defeat, that needs this more than the opponent needs it...is now significant. And the fact that the proxy system is now recognized as legitimate by the United States -- is suddenly exactly the disaster you feared it might be. And the fact that America has declared aloud that it's not actually capable of imposing its will even in the world's most vital energy chokepoints, causing its allies in the Gulf to already begin to seek a new accommodation with Iran -- makes all of this worse than Obama and worse than the JCPOA. Remember: the great unfixable flaw of the JCPOA that none of its boosters ever had a good answer for was that it merely kicked the can down the road. It solved nothing. Trump's deal, as of this moment, is not even close to accomplishing so much. "Iran never won a war and never lost a negotiation," Trump famously said of Obama's deal (as a reporter reminded him at today's press conference). Ironic that the Iranians would win a negotiation most spectacularly against a man who styles himself the greatest negotiator to ever grace the White House. So what does it all mean? It means that in the coming years, nuclear programs will sprout like mushrooms after the rain throughout the Middle East. It means that many nations will now build out new and larger ballistic missile arsenals. It means that the state system will give way before the march of the region's transnational ideological axes. Minorities will again be trampled, new wars will be fought by stronger states to dominate the power vacuums within weaker ones. You're thinking of Israel in Lebanon -- but that's just a specific campaign against a specific enemy. Think Turkey, which right now occupies a region of Syria vastly larger than Israel's presence in Lebanon. Think heightened Iranian support for the Houthis in Yemen and a new influx of money and guns to the different sides in Libya. It means, in other words, that we will have a few more wars to fight, a few more technologies to invent to deal with this new age of cheap missiles and drones -- and also of supersonic Chinese missiles bearing nuclear warheads that Iran will eventually, inevitably, be capable of deploying against us. And it didn't have to be this bad. (And maybe, when he's heard all the criticism, it won't be.) He could have left something, anything, to concede later. He could have kept the Iranians a little bit in the dark, just a smidgen, as to just how defeated America feels. Israel's position in all this is simple, and more or less unchanged from last week. America gave us more than we had a right to ask for. But we may be going it alone from here out. Dust off the nukes. Maybe test one somewhere far away from anywhere. Quadruple the interceptor production lines, double the size of the Mossad and the Air Force. And no, don't let Hezbollah breathe, not for a second. It's the 1960s again. And Israel will have to defeat a couple more enemies before it can once again eke out a few decades of peace.

@SteveS693789 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 It has been a joy watching this whole conversation devolve for no apparent reason. But I'm glad this convo educated you on many things you were apparently unaware of, even the origination of the term Soccer! Glad I could help. 😇

@Bwp3000 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 To be fair, I came on this thread to comment on your shit food 🤷🏼‍♂️🤣🤣. Have thoroughly enjoyed the interaction though😂

I love America, but I hate to burst your bubble: if you are on Twitter, and you are getting posts about how Europeans visiting for the World Cup are completely in awe of American food and grocery stores— I have to be honest with you and tell you you are being fed complete nonsense by the algorithm. I’ve traveled to almost every European country, and there isn’t a single one which doesn’t have better grocery stores and higher-quality restaurant food than the USA. Just being honest, as a doctor should

@SteveS693789 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 Call me skeptical claiming you're not concerned about semantics, when this whole debate started because you are very much bothered and concerned about the semantics of American's calling it Soccer instead of Football. Truely, it doesn't bother me or any American, as it does you.

@Bwp3000 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 I don’t get concerned with semantics as we call it football. You , however call it soccer but your clubs are FC 🤷🏼‍♂️. It would cost me thousands to have this type of conversation with a real Attorney, I’m sort your not busy

@FreddyLA7 Safe travels! Enjoyed following you in my hometown!

Goodbye Houston💔 Four unforgettable days in the city come to an end. The road trip continues. Now we’re heading to Oklahoma City, and Toronto afterwards.

@SteveS693789 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 You're right, you're totally not arguing with a stranger too. 😂

@Bwp3000 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 It’s 22.17 here in uk and I on my 3rd Negroni… you are sat in your office having an argument with a stranger 🤷🏼‍♂️😆😆😆😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

@SteveS693789 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 And? How does this negate that your country invented the term: SOCCER? lol. Why are you upset that we are simply using a term that you all created for the sport?

@Bwp3000 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 FC

@SteveS693789 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 Sounds like a crash out (maybe drinking too much?). How do you feel about soccer originating from your country and you apparently were unaware of that fact?

@Bwp3000 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 The very fact that you use chat GBT is hilarious 😆😆😆. How much does your firm pay you? Are you still at School? 🤷🏼‍♂️😂😂😂

@SteveS693789 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 ?

@Bwp3000 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 The very fact you can’t answer my question is telling….

@SteveS693789 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 tweeting to mock you does not require a tremendous amount of time or brainpower.

@Bwp3000 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 You must be the shittest Attorney going as you spend all your time on twitter 😂😂😂😆

@SteveS693789 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 And? Are you trying to ignore your country's history of inventing the term "soccer"? Be upset at your fellow countrymen for being so stupid as to create a name you all apparently hate. Americans are just calling it what you called it. 🤣

@Bwp3000 @DrSuneelDhand @VoortAnnem42489 You do know what FC stands for don’t you? Now, got check out club names in the states and elsewhere and come back to me 😂😂🤡
