raumdeuter: Leave Ole alone ooh..
We the forces supporting him are on our knees praying
But seriously Why have they not sacked Ole? Does anyone honestly think Ole can achieve anything with Man utd or they are just delaying the inevitable?
Let me put it this way, what is Ole's upper limit and is that upper limit Okay for Man Utd? Confuse them with nonsense. That's the tactics. Is it beans to confuse a tactical genius like Pep. Same tactics he used to hold Pep scoreless in 180 mins of league action last season. Fans just have memories of goldfish. They need to be patient and trust the process, just look at Arteta The Glazers are not football people. Green and not Silverware is their primary interest |

What is the correlation between mass shooters and a hard unnecessary foul that was retaliated on in the heat of the moment. What kind of Boko Haram analogy is that?? If the retaliation was premeditated that is even different, it was on impulse. No amount of kumbaya preaching will prevent an athlete or human being from not protecting himself when they are cornered or unduly attacked. Goodness And KD mehn. 30 pts on 12 shots. That guy is a joke  |

Na wetin make me like Kwame Brown! He told Gilbert Arenas say him dey try too hard to look tough but he is about the softest man he has ever known. No be to dey carry body guards and gun, he told Gilbert meet me one on one and lets see who makes it to the other side first. The same thing with Jackson! Since then, Jackson neva pipe low? He told Jackson, he is not cut out for all those red and blue crap! Come out one v one make we check something. Jackson neva shut up since then? Any athlete carrying gun upandan is simply paranoid and scared of their own shadow. Why carry gun wey you no go fit shoot if shit hits the fan |

DeeMain: There are appropriate responses to bullying and inappropriate responses. The right response to being taunted or bullied by classmates is not bringing a gun to school and mauling them down. A child should be taught how to stand up and defend himself without going overboard. Gunning the person down or doing a mass shooting should be a no no. How does your analogy apply here? Is it because Morris fell and over dramatized his ordeal? Na wa oh. Who said anything about guns? Why are you going from extreme to extreme |
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 9:24am On Nov 11, 2021 |
Roland17: This analogy is so wrong in so many ways! First, it infers that because a kid is big, he/she can not suffer bullying. Secondly, it shifts the responsibilities of the result of bullying on the victim instead of the bully! Come on man! The problem is the bully here.. Someone who is notorious for cheap, dirty and dangerous plays! The victim has every right to defend himself. To you, bullying is about the physical act..naaaaaa..Bullying is more about the mental control than the physical act.
If a child has a history of bullying kids or targeting a particular kid, the school is aware, friends are aware, even the family of the bully is aware they are raising a bully. Keep your hands to yourself! It is the safest place it can be. You are not going to get sympathy for trying to bully a big kid who retaliates! He did not create himself, he was not the aggressor and most importantly, the same right you think you have to hit another kid, is the same right the kid has to defend himself! For once, call out the aggressor! Na these kind people go hide under emotional intelligence dey blame victim. Smh |

DeeMain: That is why emotional intelligence or control is taught these stars and taught in all endeavours.
Why the over celebration of Jokic's immoderate retaliation? Since when did two wrongs make a right? Why not call the two out?
There is a reason those convicted of manslaughter go to prison. You were provoked but you are still responsible for your actions. Bone this talk this man. You are dealing with human beings not robots here. We are not celebrating Jokic's reaction we simply understand why he did it. So leave this moral policing thing you dey yarn Nothing manslaughter has to do with this. Jokic defended himself. I guarantee you nobody will try him like that again. Stop looking at this from a pure basketball lense. What Morris did will not fly in any other walk of life so bone this yarns |

birdman: This f**l fouled a big man at half court! What kind of nonsense is that. They should add a public flogging on top that fine  In the final minute of a blowout loss. I'm really tired of these fake tough guys,that was how Westbrook too was doing the other day only to find out he has been hypocritical of what he was fighting against |
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 8:44pm On Nov 10, 2021 |
birdman: But these are not kids. This is a grown man's game. When you hit Jokic the way Morris did, you are sending a message. Jokic showed emotional intelligence imo. He could have clocked Morris with a punch to the temple. Or body slammed him. Otherwise you are seen as soft, and folks will test you in the playoffs where you cant afford to miss any games.
Speaking of kids, same thing. Yes, you should report things to the teacher instead of taking the law into your own hands. De-escalate if you can. But if they corner you and are about to inflict damage on you, game on. Do what you need to to get out of it. Then be the frst to report the whole story to the authorities anyways. Dont just lie down there and eat a beating trying to be emotionally intelligent. There are no rewards for coming home with a broken head. Bullies bully you until you clap back. Such is life. The infuriating thing for me was that he hit him then turned his back and was going like nothing. They say he's a Philly boy. Maybe na omo mummy wey no get street OT cos If he did that in any hood he could get killed. This is also a guy with a track record of dirty play that did the same thing some people here are dragging Jokic for There is a place for the game and a place to simply stand up for yourself as a man no matter what |

DeeMain: A big kid gets bulied by a classmate and he comes to class the next day on a shooting spree and kills 10. Intention, retaliation. Shaq and Chuck on National TV: "they got it coming. Don't mess with a big kid," and "if you hit a big kid, if he retaliates, it's all fair because the force is going to be different," literally glorifying the act, extolling violence, gloating even.
I say hogwash!
What happened to the virtue of sportsmanship? What happened to emotional intelligence? Are we not supposed to be trumpeting these?
Does sports analysts and broadcasters not have a code of conduct?
And kids watch these programs. I just wonder what we are teaching them these days.
And we are wondering why society is so decadent. Stop making malaria analogies. When you're in the heat of battle there is no telling how you respond. The ideal situation is for the initial offender not to try you in the first place. What's the correlation between taunting and mass shooting as revenge. Stop dealing in extremes to make jejune argument What was sportsmanlike about the initial foul? Or is the victim the only one allowed to show emotional intelligence? There is a reason there are self defense laws so dead this agenda |
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 8:36pm On Nov 10, 2021 |
DeeMain: I disagree, bro. How can he flop without knowing what was coming behind? It was the weight of the big man(Jokic) + the force of the push + the fact that it was unexpected (so he didn't brace himself to absorb the impact) that caused the whiplash.
Look at the pictures below and tell me it was flopping. Him go dey alright. If he can dish he should be able to take |

DeeMain: Markieff gave him a hard foul. Thumbs down Kieff. Is the punishment for a hard foul death? Jokic could have given him a serious neck injury or worse killed him. His head snapped back: a whiplash can lead to serious complications.
Reaction >>>>> Action.
I understand Jokic's intention though, he wanted to send a message to the NBA.
Fair enough punishment by the NBA in my opinion. Lmaoo killed him?? Like barging into Jokic like that couldn't have broken his ribs and punctured his lungs, His flopping was what led to the Whiplash. I would sympathize with any other player not the Morris brothers, two of the dirtiest players in the league. Literally Maybe if he apologized like a man instead of turning his back on him like a kitten he would have seen the retaliation coming. Any basketball court in the world if Morris tried that he would get knocked out whether he faced him or turned his back |

Next time, you will give the big man his respect. These American players always think Europeans are sweet. See how Jimmy Butler was clapping like a project chic |

Roland17: Roy Keane is part of the problem. I thought Roy would say 'I would grab him and force him to resign". Is Fred the biggest problem with United? I thought he would even mention Magawaya if he was to make his "akara analysis" of scapegoating but of course, he mentions Fred. If you like add Messi to this squad, as long as Ole Gullum remains coach, you will continue to lose scandalously.
The other day, Scholes was on Pogba's case, Pogba no play today so I await who dem go blame. You see those una DNA ex players, na dem be the problem, not even the fans. They have the mic, the attention of the public and they have abused it, all in the name of protecting DNA or their stupid generation of ex-United players. None of them have the balls to call out Ole for what he is, they are all busy scapegoating current players. Awon agbaya!
