engrjacuzzi:
This coach just killed this game. How can you bring in tall defenders to compete setpieces with shorter players. I don't really understand Tomas Tuchel.
The Subs are just not in the game, O'riely, Burn, Konsa....I don't get.
Though I am supporting Argentina but when I see flops I speak.
Now they want to play their normal EPL pattern of play like Stoke City FC
Can't trust them managers sometimes.
He has an excellent bench. Maybe he doesn't know his players

I am this feeling that the England manager can't be trusted. Why is he not making changes? There great players on the Bench

Take out Kane and bring in Watkins Tuhel!

Watkins should come for Kane. The guy looks tired

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Does Anyone Still Doubt That Argentina Is Being Protected? - Mehdi Hasan by elevated2: 6:52pm On Jul 12
puremaker7:
I swear Argentina are always protected....
I have always hated them since 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship (U-20 World Cup) held in the Netherlands.
I remember that one. As at then in the case of Nigeria some of us thought our boys were inexperienced. But in 94 the ref was on their side no doubt. In 96 even though Nigeria won you could still see some protection for them. However that of 96 our boys were should have been bold and protected.....
Travel › Re: Lady Who Was Denied US & Canada Visas Multiple Times Opens Up, Displays Document by elevated2: 2:58pm On Jul 11
Originalsly:
Hmmm ... people need to be careful of what they say online ... a visa can be revoked.

I'm still finding it difficult to understand why someone with a solid secondary school background would pay an agent to apply for a visa. I'm sure these agents are the cause of many being denied visas. There is nothing complicated in a visa application ...everything is is spelled out
For real. Especially a country like Cana. I don't know why we make contents on every issues. I may be naive though
Business › Re: Nigergrob Ceramics Ogun:What I Found In An Abandoned Factory Established In 1974 by elevated2: 5:38pm On Jul 09
Raydos:
Driven by my usual adventurous streak, I headed out today to explore an old, abandoned ceramic factory near my place. I first learned about it from a local elderly woman, who told me it opened back in 1974 (exactly 52 years ago) and that her husband used to work there in the 80's

She shared a bunch of stories about how lively the place used to be, bustling with all kinds of people earning a living before it finally shut its doors around 2007.

Listening to her gave me this irresistible urge to sneak inside. I just had to explore it and get a firsthand sense of what it felt like when the machines were running, how the employees worked, and what their daily lives were like.
Interesting! Back then,Nigeria had industries. I never knew there was a western state of Nigeria. Which state is this place?
Sports › Re: What's Really The Problem Of African Football? by elevated2: 9:29pm On Jul 07
It appears "Africa near success" syndrome is also playing out in Football. We need to look inward and change a lot of things. Als, Argentina somehow are always lucky with African teams. Somehow it just works for them in the last minute- Deflection, penalty, something always happens.
Our handling of success also matters. Look how the goals scorers from Africa most times celebrate. The energy could be conserve to play more. Keep playing as if you are not on the winning side until the last whistle blows.
Foreign Affairs › Re: France Considers Action Against Paraguay Senator Who Called Mbappe A Chimpanzee by elevated2: 9:05pm On Jul 07
I noticed that our young boys(African heritage) when they play, they tend to avoid these bullies. Even African team do the same. Since I started watching football the bullies and racist always get away with these things. Go watch old videos of Nigeria playing Argentina. Even two Euros ago the Croatia team did the same to the black English boys. Some lessons ought to be taught them.

Nonsense response! This is another tale of what never happened! undecided

2. Nigeria has not had good any semblance of good government since at least Obasanjo! undecided
What is nonsense about the response? Aren't you responsible enough to use a better word? Besides what do you know about economics? Do you think Obj alone was responsible for all the policies during his tenure? Take your your braggadocio attitude somewhere else. I thought I could engage you. Bye

Jonathan was mostly riding the wave that was Obasanjo before him and yar adua. undecided
I agree. But we had people like Okonjo and the current governor of Anambra, if I remember correctly who also helped managed what was remaining from the Obj and Yar adua .
Nigeria dey forbid good thing self? Just thinking 🤔

Cape Verde is probably the most difficult match Argentina will play in this tournament
Seconded! I think Argentina would rather play European teams than African teams even though they somehow get lucky at the end of the day.
Cape Verde have been the most technical side and even for Argentina.
But I would be happy if they Egypt wins the game.

Everything is not always about African mentality.
It's a simple and a beautiful game of football in its purest form. Just relax and enjoy it
Thank you.
What do you think I meant with our mentality?

What rubbish are you talking about..?

Germany, Holland, Italy, Scotland etc that are at home, what mentality do they have?
You don't have to call what I wrote rubbish. I probably have been watching football before you were born. If you don't understand what I am talking about please take a "walk". How many matches did African teams play in the last 3 or so days?

What a fantastic game from Cape Verde. Africa is getting close in winning the world cup!
We need to work on our mentality as Africans in the game of football and life in general. It is always end in the same way so far.

I am confused why the goal scorer for C V was taken out. Ok, let's see how it goes

Black Africans lack speed and agility. They are always sluggish and slow.


Maybe its our food or culture or how our brain is wired. It's not normal, its a pattern and its not about inferiority complex
I also noticed African teams tend to lose focus after 70 or so minutes especially when playing European teams. Something just happen in that moment.
Health › Re: Your Brain Deserves The Same Care As Your Phone by elevated2: 7:01pm On Jun 30
PharmaTimesng:
Most of us wouldn't let our phones run out of battery, overheat, or stop working before paying attention. Yet we often do exactly that to our brains.

We sacrifice sleep, live under constant stress, spend hours glued to screens, eat poorly, and expect our brains to keep performing at their best.

The problem is that brain health doesn't usually decline overnight. It can happen gradually, showing up as poor concentration, forgetfulness, mental fatigue, or difficulty staying focused.

The good news? Small daily habits can help keep your brain healthy.

Get enough quality sleep.
Exercise regularly.
Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, nuts, and healthy fats.
Stay mentally active by reading, learning, or solving puzzles.
Manage stress through healthy coping strategies.
Drink enough water every day.

Your brain is your body's control centre. It powers your thoughts, memories, decisions, emotions, and every movement you make.

If you make time to care for your phone every day, make time to care for your brain too. It is the one organ you can never replace.
Nice one. Plus:
Eat healthy oil you get from fish, walnuts etc.
Play puzzles etc

The ruling party thinks the economy is still as strong as before, thinking 50k is about 100 dollars 😂
That's how feudal lords think. There seem to have been a spread of feudalism in Nigeria in the last 10 years.

Social workers? In Nigeria? It's like leaving a vulnerable child in the custody of Nigerian Police. Wahala dey.
Sorry then. No ideal from my side. Nigeria was not stated in the write-up.
Family › Re: Child Custody At Welfare Advice by elevated2: 11:15pm On Jun 27
gentlesil:
My brother has reported his wife to the ministry of social welfare because she is neglecting her role towards their three children- 9, 6, and 3 years old.
He said of late, he is the one that bath them, Wash their clothes and take them to school.
The only reason she cooks in the house sometime, is because she herself must eat.
She always lay all manner of insult on him even threaten to harm him, if he dares her.
The situation is now affecting him so much that he wants to saperate from her and ask for child custody, not divorce yet.
So he wants to know the possible outcome from this.
Please suggest one, two or three possible outcome.
Thanks in advance for your guidance
It depends on the country. Since they are together they might want to take the kids from them and give the kids to a family member/friend else another unknown foster family. If they were not together the man would likely get the custody of the children. The third scenario is they might want to help by giving a social worker rights to come in and give some advise. But social workers usually don't have the patience. Once they see no improvements they advise the kids to be taken away. They are usually not to be trusted.

Coloured people need to be mindful how they welcome others. We have not done anything violent in this world that is why they do their shot. Read what they suffered in the hands of oyinbos and Japanese, yet they respect those poeple.

What was it like back in the days? Care to describe?
The women didn't expect too much from men and could also share the little they had with men. That is the summary. Standards were different though, no human hair and stuffs, so getting a babe a snacks or food (no need to take out) was good enough.
