Will there be an official testosterone level to compete in female or male sport?

If a male is found to have too low of these, can he be sent to the female event?
Lol the emphasis is on taking away an unfair advantage biologically. Whether we like it or not a woman competing with higher testosterone levels will always have the edge over fellow women

Brother this Team is different and they proved it against City the last time around. As far Son is available, this Group of players should be full of confidence going into the next game at the Cruijff Arena.
No be the same Tottenham I watch against West Ham? Hiann!!

They were very lucky vs City. If say that ref add 2 more minutes City for score again. Pep lo go ara e. They had no business losing to Spurs

chic2pimp:
I watched the Game vs Madrid and atlhough they were the better side over the two legs, Madrid definitely had their chances. If they had taken them, who knows what might have been. Remember this is not the NBA where generally the better team wins. This is a different Ball game altogether. A Game of "Who Can clinically take their chances when it present itself" not "Who the better Side is".
Lol Madrid no even get case. Ajax should have won home and away if not for that wayo ref in the first leg that cancelled a legit goal. I was guilty of underrating that Ajax side when they faced us in the group stage but when you go unbeaten in six matches vs Bayern, Juve and Madrid then you're a team to be feared.

Upsets can happen in football but this Tottenham wey I dey see go chop am

I disagree. Tottenham know that they have to do two things to qualify. Win and get on the scoreboard atleast twice. So from their point of view, there is no messing about right from the Get go. Attack, Attack, Attack is the name of the game.
Lol this is Tottenham we are talking about here. They would be lucky to escape with a draw.

Ajax actually took their foot off the pedal in the second half. After watching their games against Madrid and especially the second half against Juve men I'm sorry but barring an early red card Tottenham don't have a prayer

No, i brought up facts to prove how the bald gambler was bailed out multiple times by his stacked teams and you brought up the 07 cavs. cheesy

Maybe if they had facilitation they would have better shots and would make more buckets. Assists dont just come without others scoring as well so these things are tied together.
Lol you have no argument here. Unless you can show me just 1 playoff series where Michael Jordan was not the best player on his team. 1 or two outlier games cannot possibly work against Jordan because we have LeNomad getting bailed out numerous times as well going by your logic

Are you serious? When did Houston Rockets have facilitation issues? They flat out missed numerous wide open looks!!
Assists are great but assists still involve you putting the game in someone else's hands. As a player your scoring is what you can control

ReysonDrabek:
Now whos moving goal posts? When did this become a comparison between east and west? how many times have lower seeded teams beat better seeded teams in the playoffs especially the teams with better players? Didnt the nets beat a higher seeded raptors that year? 22 year old Lebron beat a team with prime kidd carter and jefferson. And then he beat an experienced pistons team with a better record to get to the finals.
I'm telling you that you're greatly exaggerating the degree of difficulty. The Nets were a mediocre team that beat another mediocre team playing in a mediocre conference. It's not about the higher or lower seed. It's not a coincidence that the Spurs had it tougher getting out of the West than winning the NBA Finals

And no 34 year old Jason Kidd was not in his prime.

The Pistons were 3 years removed from a title. They were dying
ReysonDrabek:
NO He shot 44% from the field and 36% in the finals, and thats mostly due to his bad 3 point shooting. Plus he led his team in points assists and steals and second place in rebounds in that playoffs. The man made the finals with ilgauskas as his second best player. Put some respect on his name!
Nahi nahi. He shot 41% in the post season and 35 in the Finals. You can't get away with such bricklaying against better teams out West

And I'm telling you getting to the Finals is a lot easier playing against the dross in the Eastern Conference

ReysonDrabek:
So without the means how do you arrive at the end? How do you score without facilitation? How do you get possessions and extra possessions to score without rebounding?

Your point is your man was a specialist in one aspect of the game. LBJ is the whole package.

Lebron led a team past the 07 nets with jason kidd, vince carter and richard jefferson in their prime, then beat the immovable pistons with booby gibson and ilgauskas, thats what you call help? what then will you call beating scrubs with hall of famers on your team?
Lool stop complaining when I shoot you with your own gun. You brought up the GOAT shooting badly and the Bulls won in a blowout, I showed you LeNomad playing badly and the Cavs also won in a blowout! You can't keep bringing outlier examples to prove nonexistent points

Possessions and rebounding are useless when you can't make buckets. If the Rockets went even 3/27 instead of going 0/27 they would have beaten Golden State last year. Points is still the name of the game

Lmao you mean the same 07 Nets that finished 41-41 grin grin. Do you know if the Nets played in the West they wouldn't even make the playoffs?? Weakass team in a weak ass conference.

Even the 'immoveable' Pistons would not finish higher than 4th seed in the West and would have been killed by any of the teams that finished ahead of them.

Of course they helped. On defense, on rebounding. You didn't know your LeNomad was still a notorious brick merchant at the time? He shot 41% from the field overall and 35% in the Finals. How could they possibly help more with scoring when only LeNomad by himself was shooting 10/30 in games

There were better alternatives who were willing to take the fight. It doesnt even matter anyway, only a matter of time until wilder knocks Flex Mentallo spark out and we dont have to deal with eddie hearn and matchrooms shenanigans anymore. One champion, one name, one face.

Scoring this scoring that. You people just have tunnel vision dont you? cheesy

This nigga keeps bringing up the 2007 cavs when were are talking about stacked teams LOOOL!
Points win games! Not rebounds, not assists, points! All the other stuff are means to an end. The points are the end

I don't really care who you think is stacked or not that's not my concern. MJ was averaging 15 more PPG while shooting at a higher percentage. In this 'stacked' team

You brought out an outlier of a game to prove a non existent point! I countered that with the much maligned 2007 team to show you that even in that season LeNomad had help but you're still shifting the goalposts. If it's not about scoring then why did you make it about scoring?

You're missing the point. His team was so stacked all he ever needed to do was score and even when he didnt, it has already been proven his team mates step up to the plate to bail him out. Lebron does more than just score and carries most of the offensive work load for his team. No wonder his team went from 57 wins to 55 wins without him.

The cheek of this guy bringing up the 2007 cavs to prove how stacked lebrons teams are LMAO!
Lmaooo Jordan did more than just score. There's a reason he led the league in steals multiple times, made all-defense teams etc. Can you list any playoff series the GOAT didn't lead the Bulls in scoring? Jordan is not a stats padder else he could easily have led his team in all categories if he wanted to

Besides I can bring out multiple playoff games from that 2007 Cavs team where LeNomad was led in scoring. The 07 ECF was just one example

The 07 Cavs? LMAO! after LeBron stole their soul in game 5 scoring the last 25 points for the Cavs? Don't forget the 8 assists and 14 boards. Dont even compare jordans team with the 07 Cavs, don't even bring that team up man. Try again.
Who cares? Show me any Conference or NBA Finals where LeNomad scored 51% of the team's total. If the GOAT's team was so loaded then common sense dictates Jordan wouldn't ever need to score that many points to secure a Win.

Lmaooo your man actually shot 32/90 I know he was young but 35% from the field grin grin

I showed you a game where LeNomad was abysmal and the Cavs won comfortably thanks to his teammates. QED

Does lebron get to shoot as poorly as that in any game and win let alone by such a huge margin? Like i said, steph curry, hes mosty hot, but hes cold a lot. Either it usually doesnt matter, he wins because his team is so good.
Lmaooo are you a jester?

Didn't your LeNomad shoot 3/11 vs the Pistons and the Cavs still won by 16

People easily ordain players superstar just because they have a few allstars under their belt. Calling him a superstar is putting him in the class of AD or KD. He's in the borderline between star and superstar, let's leave it at that.
Like I said, anybody with working eyes will not look at Nikola Jokic and call him a pretend superstar. Don't feel the overwhelming need to defend another Bronsexual

Besides he used it in a derisive tone of not just him but the Nuggets as well

At 60m, he's an absolute steal. How much apari's MCM pay for Stones wey dey chop bench.
He literally cost £75m. He's a steal because they also broke the record for most expensive goalkeeper, because guys like TAA and Robertson also did their part.

Put him with this present Chelsea squad with calamity Luiz and Aribisala with Alonslow at full back and let's see if these hands you're using to praise you wouldn't use to curse

It seem you didn’t read my comments well. I said his inclusion to this Liverpool improved their chances of winning trophies and I went further to made mentioned of Arnold, Robertson and Klopp as a way to tell you that football is a team sport and not lawn tennis. So how come you are saying I commended Van solely? E clear say you like twisting too like raumdeuter.
hensben:
How do you guys even see football generally? So before you commend Van he has to win a trophy first, like football is lawn tennis. Why can’t you see the improvement he brought to this Liverpool side since his signing, knowing that Liverpool hasn’t won epl for decades now. The last time they won ucl was in 2005, that’s 14 years ago. Since VDD signing they are on course to two ucl finals and challenging for epl titles. The team is still on rebuilding process. Although, they are formidable but still klopp need a reliable squad depth and they will be competing for every major trophies out there. Currently, Klop is my favorite coach because of how he set up his team and groom players to be quality(e.g, in Dortmund and now Liverpool; Robertson and Arnold).
Can you see the bolded? Was Van Dijk their only addition? Robertson, Allison? You implied this with this statement

When Cannavaro became the world best, did he have handicaps as teammates?

You have eyes but won't still see the best performer in the defence.

You have brain but you won't still understand the meaning of BEST when used.

You should be loaned from your Bayern Munich back to your old team, Arsenal. You don't belong to the 'champions' league.
What did Cannavaro win before he was awarded World Best? Shey you see your life for outside?

Ogbeni stop making noise in my mentions and at me when Van Dijk wins trophies like Cannavaro did. Nobody is arguing on the merits or demerits of Van Dijk winning this award. I have never cared for a player winning or losing one so I don't know why you are spamming my mentions ad nauseum.

Some of the players you have been hyping are now playing in Russia. Do you see me dancing in your mentions.
