If as you say, you are truely ignorant of all the disparaging bunkum Hleb and 'flatuso' have been spewing since their exit from AFC then I have nothing more to say to you.

This is because I fear you have been living in the paleolithic period of the early stone age and to bring you up to date with events transcending the 21st centuary will be extremley laborious and a complete waste of precious time.

Foreign Affairs › Doesn't Bush Deserve More Praise For His Work In Africa? by doyin13(op): 12:20pm On Aug 01, 2008
His catastrophic efforts in Iraq aside, I think he should get a lot
of credit for all the work on AIDS, as well as the increase in aid given
to the continent.

Foreign policy is multi-faceted and his Iraq policy should not colour his
other efforts especially where it concerns us Africans.

Besides, he did a lot more than Clinton, and the latter always features
as every black man's favourite white man.

Of course they will be a detrimental effect at least in the short term.

You just do not replace 42 goals in a jiffy and besides the goals, the threat
he poses means teams have to pay attention to him, which opens space
for other players in the team.

Yes he definately provides another scoring option, but the defense I think is more valueable esp out there in the high powered west where many teams don't want to play defense, it can finally help get that 1st rd monkey off their back.
 which one be hit-miss?  huh
that is what you call covering all bases. cheesy cheesy

NO still have the same problem even with James Posey. Posey is a good defensive player,
but this team was already good defensively. The problem they had against the Spurs was getting
a third scoring option after Bowen locked down (wetin be that Balkan guy name again sef.) They need
more offence I reckon, although Posey does augment what is one of the thinnest benches in the league

Jesoul, i am quite surprised you are in support of the Death Penalty.
Makes up for the deficiencies in your basketball knowledge cheesy cheesy tongue

My own viewpoint on the death penalty is nuanced.

I do not believe it should be statutorily permanent. But where a nation
starts to feel insecure with high incidents of homicidal crime, its introduction surely
serves as a useful deterrent, not minding what these statisticians come up
with.

For example, the Uk needs the death penalty like no tomorrow. Little rascals roam
about with no value placed on life at all, and with brevity knowing they can get away
with their heinous crimes.

TMac making it out of the 1st rd? For me seeing is believing. Although I won't kid myself of the fact they've suddenly become a better defensive team with Artest. My money is still on NO to top the west next season. . . they are a solid team.
well so far Dumars has been able to resurrect & legitimize the careers of a couple 2nd, 3rd chance players. . . maybe he can do the same for Kwame's lazy behind.
They become a better defensive and offensive team, and it is scoring points that has been their sore point.

Artest's good defence often deflects from his very polished offensive skills. If Yao should go down again, Artest
can provide good post offense, and good perimeter production when the team is complete.


Dumars is hit and miss, though its been mostly hit so far. I bet this one will be a hit-miss grin grin cheesy
TV/Movies › Re: The Departed: Damon Or Dicaprio- - - --who Was Better? by doyin13(op): 11:10am On Jul 31, 2008
Wahlberg was good. . . .but I have seen him do better, notably in Boogie Nights.
think his role did not lend itself to subtlety and overacted in bits.

DiCaprio's role was always going to garner all the attention cause of the role he played.
I just could not forget this was still the pretty boy of Titanic. Some of his violent scenes were less than
convincing.

Damon was just class. I still can't get over the performance. It was so even keeled, so natural. He seemed
in character in all his scenes. . . . .

But I will tell you who prolly outdid both of them. . . .The lady. She was fabulous as well. Public Service Shrink.

Literature › Re: The 2008 Man Booker Prize by doyin13(m): 5:51am On Jul 31, 2008
@SMC

Even some of the judges past agree with me:

The 2002 judges announced their shortlist of six books with a barbed attack on publishers for submitting "pretentious, portentous and pompous" novels.

The chairwoman, Lisa Jardine, lamented the absence of Irvine Welsh's Indecency, and fellow judge David Baddiel said many entries "had a vulgar and obvious seriousness".

The author Alain de Botton said the panel was "a little attention-seeking" to complain about the heavy tone of the books, quipping that the Booker was "not the WH Smith thumping-good-read award".

Baddiel wrote a furious response on the letters page of The Times. "Can this possibly be the same man I sat next to on The People's Booker show on BBC2 last year," he demanded, "who supported Atonement [by Ian McEwan] because it was such a good read, and claimed that the eventual winner, Peter Carey's True History of the Kelly Gang, was far too heavy going, not a book he would ever give to a friend, and in fact the worst thing he could say about it was that it was exactly the sort of book that wins the Booker Prize?"
Literature › Re: The 2008 Man Booker Prize by doyin13(m): 10:26pm On Jul 30, 2008
After reading some of the past winners of the Booker prize, I have to say
I find the selectors quite self indulgent in their choices.

They have been a few good ones, but many of them are BORING.

Life of Pi was a drag as was 'The God of Small things'

Even the much acclaimed 'Vernon God Little' was on reflection not the most entertaining book.

The selectors of the Orange Prize give more 'rounded' selections.

50% is as good as any other arbitrary number.  they did not plant the oil, and the lands are not privately owned.  The money they are getting is not being used properly and the militants will just use any money they get to buy more weapons.
The only non arbitrary numbers are 0 or 100. Since zero is tantamount to a suicidal conflagration, I think it only
makes sense to give 100 %.

I know I am two years late, but I finally saw the Departed.

And yes, it was every bit as good as people said it was, if not better.

The performances were stunning, Wahlberg deserved his Oscar, and he has impressed
me for for a long time.

Nicholson showed why he is one of the greatest ever.

Even DiCaprio managed to impress me, for only the first time , and he got lots of nominations
for more than his pretty face.

But none of them impressed me as much as Damon. His is one of the most impressive performances
I have seen in ages. Almost flawless, natural. . . . ,  . . .Which is why I am surprised he was almost
invisible on the awards slate.

So what's your takewho was better?

I still think he needs to bulk up a bit more.

He improved a bit at the tail end of the season, but I am struggling
to see much of an upside to his game.

Ronaldo is naturally gifted, Nani not so much.

Sports › Re: Who Is The Best Goal Keeper In The World by doyin13(m): 6:31pm On Jul 29, 2008
Madrid have good defenders but they sure don't play good defence.

Their 'wingers' leave their full backs exposed etc.

No doubt Casillas is a great goalkeeper, especially his uncanny ability at shot stopping
but he can't command his area like Van Der Saar can.

As per the United defence, I think the contribution that aspect of United's game made to
their successful season has been underrated. And it was a co-operative effort of all 11 players
not individual efforts from Vidic or whoever.
Sports › Re: Who Is The Best Goal Keeper In The World by doyin13(m): 5:25pm On Jul 29, 2008
I actually agree with Hannibal but not necessarily for the same reasons.

He is solid in all areas while his rivals have one shortcoming or another.

Cassillas is a great shot stopper but his relative lack of height means he cannot relieve the pressure
on his defence when those balls are getting crossed into the area.

Cech is commanding but I don't think he has the greatest reflexes.

@Hannibal.

VDS'S record in the UCL says more about the defence in front of him than about his body of work.

debosky:
But isn't buying keane an attempt to do that - adapt to the premiership? Keane may not be worth 20m, but he does have very decent premiership experience, and is probably among the best 4 strikers outside top 4. Getting someone like that may help where the likes of Voronin and Babel failed.

One thing I'll give Benitez is that he knows how to make excuses - money money money  grin At one point he was saying players like Diaby, Aliadiere and Denilson are expensive Arsenal players just to justify the whipping they got in the CC  grin

Henry, I repeat HENRY was sold at 16m, are you saying Keane is worth even Half of T14?? shocked undecided
Robbie Keane certainly fits the bill with what he has so far. . . . .Keane has a quasi 'European game'
which relies on smarts rather than athletic ability where he is seriously deficient. Sort of like Voronin
but with goals.

There is potential upside as he might prove a good foil for Torres, but that is the point. . . .20 million pounds
for a foil is crazy business. Its the same gripe I have with a player like Tevez. They need equally if not better
players around them to make the biggest impact. But players like Rooney, Henry, Ronaldo don't need much
help. They should be the ones commanding 20 million pounds and above.
