People will think I'm crazy for this take, but I'm a big believer in the psychological impact of narratives on teams. Yes, Belgium looked so much better tonight and we looked lost. But this team had a boatload of good vibes behind them, and in the last 48 hours that vanished, and replacing it was a story of implicit political corruption that turned them into the bad guys, or at least the beneficiary of the corruption. You can't tell me that doesn't put pressure on the team, change the vibe, and take a psychological toll that impacted what happened on the field. American fans, serious and casual, should be pissed at this interference. We overturned a red card and our reward was losing what made this team so much fun until now.
Tel Aviv born Miriam Adelson spends hundreds of millions of dollars buying U.S. politicians using Chinese gambling money, then gets the red carpet treatment at our Nation’s 250th birthday celebration, while others suffer in the heat.
Reading how petty rules are going to prevent many pubs/venues stay open for the Mexico England game.
It's the world cup. Let fans enjoy the game, let pubs make some money (for once). Get out of our way. Not complicated.
3 blacks attack a drunk white kid in Birmingham, the female police officer comes in to protect the violent blacks and arrest the white kid
Absolutely disgusting the way white people are treated in England (@KnockoutAudit)
The mother of the little girl (5) who was the most seriously injured has said her daughter is now wheelchair bound after she suffered brain damage due to a lack of oxygen to her brain caused by blood loss. The child is non-verbal, cannot go to the toilet by herself, and needs drugs to help her sleep.
We are very fortunate to have obtained three copies of @paraderingedge books on paddock watching. Now listeners of our podcast will be aware that we are very fond of Geoffrey Hutson's book 'Watching Racehorses' as at the time it was the only book on paddock watching that applied the angles to data (i.e the misnomer on sweating)
Well thanks to the author Stephen Lang (who by the way goes racing with Geoffrey) has also produced a data related book on paddock analysis and those three copies could be yours. Simply like, retweet and follow us and @paraderingedge and you can win one of those three copies. Good Luck, will keep reposting this and the winners will be announced on the first day of #royalascot
