Reminds me of a couple of my favourite Coldplay appropriate jokes How many members of Coldplay can you fit into a mini? All 4, it's a 4 seat vehicle so it's really quite straight forward ![]() And The members of Coldplay walk into a bar, the bar is really crowded so they're ushered to a special VIP area, but that's not really their style as they're just quite down to earth ordinary guys ![]()

hiddenmovement posted:Naw I think the rule actually favours the better skilled teams, and will make it harder for lower level teams to grind out wins with a less talented list. Given hawthorn's free agency advantage won't be going away anytime soon I think they will be in the box seat for rolling on for the next few years.

Alligator, Boxer and the Virginia EP were amazing, High Violet and Sad songs were great but you can tell they hit a point that was like "let's angle towards what sells" over what they were doing before. But that's the nature of liking what artists produce at a certain time rather than for their lifetime, ie I haven't bought a Foo Fighters album for close to 10 years but a few of their albums are some of my all time favourites snaeksikn fucked around with this message at 02:56 on Feb 8, 2016 |

Arguably the biggest game of football in the world this year, two commentators taking about the game in detail, not ten dickheads with awful "banter".

Funnily enough though, my favourite song they've done was actually a later one (Pink Rabbits). I actually quite liked the later stuff in general even if it did alienate a lot of older fans. Alligator and Boxer are definitely my favourites overall though.

Channel 9 Cricket? Big Bash? So many choices! Jesus BT, Darce, Richo and Ling commentating this would be insane.

What free agency advantage there's no such thing I'll have you know we've lost more from free agency than we've gained /hawksfan On the skill level thing, I think the skills we see on display during a live match are very heavily impacted by things like pressure and fatigue. By robbing top teams of the ability to heavily rest their top mids, we may see defensive efforts drop off allowing players that are often flaky front runners (Jack Watts et al) showcase a higher and more consistent standard of skill. It's certainly the case that skilled players will be more important in our brave new world, but I don't think the interaction will be quite as simple as 'better skilled doods will dominate'. hiddenmovement fucked around with this message at 03:06 on Feb 8, 2016 |

It's pretty much every Australian sport that's non ABC/SBS, and what makes it doubly annoying is that footy and cricket are not simple games, and some insightful commentary can be made. The root of the problem being Australia is an old boys club, and the public accepting that the best insight comes from those who've played the game, which US sport has shown for decades isn't true.

snaeksikn posted:If I saw shane Warne in person I wouldn't go as far as heckling him but i would probably make a wanking motion towards him if I caught his eye because I am a loving hero I saw him and his family on the train a few years back, he was telling his son off for putting his feet on the seat and then his daughter fell over and he gave her a big hug. It was hard to feel like you wanted to have a go at him when he was being a good Dad. As for Australian commentary, yeah it's just balls all round on commercial stations. Having someone who has played the game and has a big personality in there isn't always a terrible thing, but when it's basically the entire make up of your entire team it's not good. I'm really enjoying watching the Knicks home games this year because it's got that balance of former player and general nut job Walt Fraiser but then balanced out with Mike Been. Those before the game panels that the Saturday night team does where they literally just sit around for 40mins and make fun of each other is excruciating but average joe seems to love it "oh he really wrecked Lingy there!" But then that carries over into the game itself and ugh.

This is incredibly important news, and I learned it first in the PEDs and midget-burning thread. What a time to be alive.

Is there anything preventing AFL teams from having oxygen tanks on the bench? I remember the three peat Brisbane team started with IV for rehydration.
