Pdpguy what do you think about pro Palestinian protests all over US campuses for the past 3weeks including blocking of roads

Iran China Russia that some of these students weave fantasy about won't even allow such. In Russia many of the protesters would be shipped to warfront, in China it will be another Tienamem square

But you have in America students following police to drag physically

I agree that the students have a limited right to protest (because the 1st amendment does not apply to private institutions such as Columbia, Stanford etc). But obviously, those students do not have the effrontery and right to be dragging campus police officers or unnecessarily disrupting the general business of their schools. Thats where I am with the school authorities in their efforts to quash the violent protests

Farmers league

🤣🤣

oliverano:


Two farmers league getting the 5th spot while the real league getting 4. Interesting!

We have to blame Mbappe and Dembele for hitting the post, yesterday, vs Dortmund. That Dortmund win propelled Germany to the 5th slot.

Moreover, Newcastle and Man Utd’s exits at the UCL group stage, coupled with the progress of Italian teams in the other UEFA club competitions, may have also contributed to Serie A gaining a 5th UCL spot.

Meanwhile, the 5th UCL spot will go to both the Bundesliga and Serie A.

The EPL loses out and will have its present allocation of 4 teams at next season’s UCL.

Deltamani:
BREAKING: U.S. Soccer and the Mexican Football Federation have withdrawn their joint bid for the 2027 Women's World Cup and will bid for the 2031 edition. That means 2027 will go to either Brazil or Belgium/Germany/Netherlands joint bid.

From an economic/footballing culture standpoint , I think FIFA would go with the joint European bid.
The fact that many stadia, used by Brazil for the 2014 men’s World Cup and the 2016 Olympics, are now white elephants and in various states of disrepair would likely cause FIFA’s Congress to deem the Euro bid as the “safer” option

Combined 8-2 ,one was 5 goals difference and the other was just one

If anyone told you, barely 2 weeks ago, that Arsenal would outscore both Chelsea and Spurs by a combined 8-2, you would have demanded the plug of that person’s w.e.ed seller 🤣

But now, Arsenal are now in their deepest title race since they last won the league 20 years ago

daveP:
the women's track squad should grab some medals at this Olympics. But na that Amusan own go sweet me. Her bitter rival right now is Camacho-quinn.

For real, I believe our women’s 4x100m are looking good to pick up, at least, a bronze; while Amusan is favorite to win the gold

daveP:


She moves like some combo of Osayomi+Jeter. Can't wait. This Amusan false start issues though.

Yeah
And with her running 22.34s in a headwind in the 200m, she has the potential to run 22.12 in dead wind and 21.98 in +2.0m/s in a tailwind.

Favour Ofili may just be Naija’s new Queen of the tracks!

BREAKING 🚨

Aviation Minister, Festus Keyamo, has approved Air Peace’s application to fly the Abuja - London route.

Next step would be to secure the UK CAA’s approval for the same route.

Someone said with the AI intrusion into every sector we might need to revisit the idea of Universal Basic income

We thought its the physical labor that AI will first hit with robots but its looking like its the knowledge economy that is getting hit first. Cos all the jobs based on knowledge can be done by chatgpt with minimal human input

Thinking about it, the only people who wont be affected are owners of land based resources and real estate since thats what AI cannot create yet (New land)

You’d be shocked when robots would be developed to construct homes and other buildings. The allure of the robots would chiefly be that they work much quicker and are more efficient than humans. Then once that happens, the construction industry would be hit with a recession

All these sectors are getting hit. Its when people have money and a job that they buy houses, House purchase in the last 12-24months have cooled.

There is a judgment against the National Association of realtors at the Supreme court where they ruled that commissions from buyers are not mandatory, So almost half of realtors will lose their commission and income. Likely half wont renew their license cos its expensive to hold when you cant make money. I am still holding my own license so that I can buy and manage my properties by myself and have access to MLS

Banks have reduced number of workers and mostly force you to use the online portal or apps, for some banks e.g BoA you even need to schedule an appointment to see a Banker who is probably a Legacy Merrill Lynch staff, if you walk in they will tell you to go and schedule an appointment, that is because they have reduced front office staffs to bare minimum

All these have a trickle down effect, new car sales are lower, even eating out took a hit and just coming back up

Your point about the banks is especially poignant because, a couple of weeks ago, I walked into a CHASE branch hoping for a walk-in service. But when one of the PBs told me that an appointment was required, I was shocked! I also noticed that the bank looked scant, with regard to the number of employees, on a weekday.

Then, on your point about the realtors, I recently heard that almost 40% of Vegas real estate agents/realtors are considering quitting the business, due to both the Supreme Court ruling and the slump in housing sales

So, yeah, I agree that something nasty is about to brew about this economy.

So Total almost 6k jobs

Yet every month Joe Biden will bring out numbers that jobs are increasing

I find that weird too.

But for tech workers, they can easily find work with another firm within 30-60 days after losing their previous job, unlike say, bank workers or realtors. So that fact may skew the aggregate employment numbers

This one is in addition to the over 2k workers that would be laid off in Texas 🙆🏾

BlueRayDick:


We are gradually moving towards that era already. As of today there are so many people with DSTV dish hanging on their roof who last subscribed more than 6 months ago.

Chei
We surely can’t blame this one on the US$-Naira rate

BlueRayDick:


Like play like play DSTV premium will reach 50k . Na wa o.

Na that time you go see only big boys and gals with DSTV, as e dey be for 1990s/early 2000s

Last week, it was Apple, this week na Tesla🙆🏾

PDPGuy As a Lawyer,what do you think of the Trump Hush money case Trial? Is it going to be For or Against Trump

It’s tough to say at this early stage.
Although, the judge sustained the prosecution’s repeated objections to Trump’s attorney’s opening statement, the reaction by the jury to the evidence presented (and to be presented) would be difficult to decipher

Game over rather quickly

No Ese Brume?

She doesn’t do track, so can’t be on the relay teams

Unrelated news: Here is Nigeria’s squad to the Bahamas world relays!
Even if no other Naija team secures an Olympic ticket, I’ll be banking on our women’s 4x100m relay team to book the ticket to Paris

Bad move by the Tinubu government 🤦🏾

This loss is all on Jackson and Chilwell!!!!

They have no business with CFC ever again!!

Dem don curse Jackson!!!

We could see a repeat of 2013, where two Bundesliga teams contested the UCL final at Wembley
