@Michael_Cerami It’s okay, you have at least one person who has their tinfoil hat on thinking you somehow got duped, instead of Ocaam’s razor telling us that reporting on these kinds of trades is generally a bit of a moving target 😂
@july2m0@2Proud2Bow@CamJordan4Fins I watched multiple plays like this *last night* in the England-Mexico match that didn’t result in a foul, let alone a red card 😂
Except I’ve played/watched soccer for 30 years (including European and South American football leagues), so quit with the gatekeeping nonsense.
I didn’t mention intention one bit, but him landing where there wasn’t a guy a second before is absolutely part of how that’s traditionally called, so let’s be real here. I’d be more inclined to agree with you if Bosnia’s player had been there for more than a second or so, but that’s just not how the play went.
Because you’re clearly just watching the moment of impact and not the fact that Bosnia was playing through Balogun and his foot was going to land in that spot regardless of Bosnia’s player being there. It would be different if Bosnia’s player had been in that position for more than a second.
@scottfunk0 Sure, it was definitely disappointing, but it’s tough to overcome 6 season-ending injuries, including to the second-best player, plus 3 important bench players.
Never in my life did I think I’d see someone whining to the league so much as Sam Presti clearly is. It’s the only thing that makes sense.
As a Lakers fan, it’s both hilarious and a little irritating to see the league bow so heavily to the whims of a single organization.
