Richardson! Nigga is just good.

Nigga is just like Mane of Southampton, Isco of Malaga and Sanchez of Udinese.

He just needs an opportunity to be in a big team to be a world class.

Chelsea should buy him

FT: Guinea 1-6 Flamingoes

Poll alert:

A recent Quinnipiac poll says 55% of registered Michigan voters say they are better off than they were 4 years ago. And 52% of registered Michigan voters approve of the way Trump is handling the economy!

The Dem nominee can’t afford not to campaign or run ads in that state, unlike 2016

Nigeria, Politicians now in full control of the judiciary. My court gives a ruling against my opponent, my opponent seeks the intervention of his own court which grants him a favourable ruling.

If Wenger's proposal to amend the offside rule eventually gets enacted, a lot of teams will ditch center backs who have good positional sense but lack speed

TheShopKeeper:
...Speaker Nancy Pelosi winning her primary...

Because California has a adopted a "jungle" primary system, the general election contest in that district will be between Pelosi and another Democrat.

Very much expected

Even though I'm a black person, black people are quite foolish.

Damn

It baffles me as well..

Bernie needs to hit Biden hard on Biden’s support for the disastrous NAFTA trade deal, his support for the infamous Clinton Crime Bill, and his history of voting for the interests of the credit card lobby.

No more Mr Nice guy!

One igbo girl I was dating told me her parents said i must build upstairs in my town first before I propose to her. With my 31k salary? Rent money never complete sef.
I just waka pass.

Sen. Kamala Harris is likely to endorse Joe Biden today

My view is that American may not become a 100% socialist country, however, there has to be a way of ensuring that child birth doesn't cost over $4000 in out of pocket costs, and a trip to the emergency room doesn't set someone back by $100,000.

Super Tuesday is here!

Will the day end with essentially a 'split decision' between Sanders and Biden? We will find out in about 7 hours from now.

TheShopKeeper:
Gen. Charles Q. Brown, Jr was nominated by the Trump administration to become chief of staff Monday, an honor that would see him as the Air Force's first African-American service chief.

If Brown is confirmed for the elite position by the Senate, he will become the highest ranking officer in the Air Force and oversee all units within the military branch.

Brown, 58, would also sit among the Joint Chief of Staff in the Department of Defense, which advises the President, secretary of defense, the Homeland Security Council and the National Security Council on military affairs.

Under the chief of staff position, Brown would also continue the Air Force's transition to focus efforts on defusing clashes with countries like Russia and China.

Brown will take command of an Air Force in transition, one moving from a decades-long priority on combating and containing terrorism to a new era of Great Power Competition,' the Air Force said.

He has been an Air Force officer since 1984 and is a four-star F-16 pilot who has served several combat tours throughout Asia, the Middle East and Europe.

Nice!
I see him getting a speedy confirmation from the Senate

Chris Matthews has retired from "Hardball" on MSNBC, after 20 years!

The controversies arising from the string of sexual harassment allegations, and other incendiary comments he has made on his (former) show, were the reasons he gave for quitting.

Nigeria table tennis legend, Funke Oshonaike, has made history as she qualified for her seventh Olympic Games, a feat no woman from Africa has ever achieved.

Oshonaike defeated Cameroon’s Sarah Hannfou 4-1 (12-10, 11-4, 4-11, 11-7, 11-6) in the deciding match to make it to the table tennis event of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

Oshonaike started her Olympics career at the Atlanta 1996 and since then she has been representing Nigeria at the flagship event.

The 44-year old has disclosed earlier that her performance is used to motivate and inspire the younger generation.

“I enjoyed every day I spent at the Games Village, it was an experience I will always cherish because it shows how the world should look like, everybody is the same. We share things and we unite in the Village. I look at that experience at what the world should look like. I am hoping that the power of sport will help to heal the wounds of the world.

”For me, I will be quitting but I want to use this my last experience to inspire and motivate young girls that you can achieve whatever you desire in life. You are the only one that can limit yourself in life,” Oshonaike said.

Oshonaike was 21 when she played her first match for Nigeria at the Olympics in 1996 in the doubles, partnering Bose Kaffo against Russia. She then played North Korea’s Kim Hyon-Hui (singles).

Oshonaike turns 45 this year.

Also, fellow Nigerian, Offiong Edem, has also qualified for the Tokyo Olympics.

Edem and Oshonaike are expected to play their last match against Tunisia and Mauritius later but their two wins have secured their places in Tokyo.

Aruna Quadri and Olajide Omotayo are also in the hunt for Olympic slots in Tunisia.

Does anyone know why Tulsi Gabbard hasn't dropped out? Does she really believe she has a chance to win?

She's hoping that Bernie wins, and picks her as the running mate. Tulsi has even declined to run for re-election to the House of Reps.

raumdeuter:
I see Sanders sweeping almost 10 states tomorrow. The closer Sanders is to the nomination, the closer a Trump second term is

Yes. Then Biden may win 2 or 3 southern states, while Bloomberg may carry Florida.
After Tuesday, the race will be all about denying Sanders 1,991 pledged delegates needed to win the nomination on the first ballot.

raumdeuter:
Kloubachar drops out of the race and plans to endorse Biden

With Klobuchar dropping out, Sanders could carry Minnesota decisively! I'm not sure Biden has a sizeable support in that state.

Sanders is leading, nationally, Among African American voters, which means the other southern contests would be tight. No candidate is going to have a SC-like sweep among the rest of the southern states.

Breaking!

IFAB has ruled that, from next season, it will be legal to score goals with the shoulder. The arm will be deemed to begin from the armpit downwards.

Alonso again!!!

Alonso should be a forward! The dude’s attacking instincts are not from a typical fullback

The games will take place in Lagos ??

No idea yet

See what Jesus just did to get Ramos a red card. Thats what Mason Mount should have done yesterday.

The issue with most English players is that they can be too honest at times.
