Obesity in modern times is almost definitely explained by the fact that humans evolved in a world where borderline famine conditions and daily walking were the norm, not fast food and drive-thrus. Putting humans in an environment with surplus food availability and less activity.
Messi fans are very weird about Ronaldo and it shows the way they obsessively hate him. This is a very good free kick. If this free kick showed me anything it's that Ronaldo should use this curling technique instead of his power or knuckle ball technique more often.
what kind of obvious joke is this?
They really want him to get that 1000 goals by all means😂😂😂😂💔
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This goal was in 2023 when Ronaldo hadn't even reached 900 goals.

Landon isn't wrong about the problem with coaching. The only thing I disagree is that this is a uniquely American problem. Skipping fundamentals in favor of tactics is a problem probably everywhere in youth soccer. Too many coaches see youth soccer as an opportunity to be Pep.
There's this guy who used to be in the NFL that was so slow people still to this day make fun of his 40yd dash video. He went on to be the GOAT of the NFL. By the same weird definition of athleticism which would exclude Rodri adb Kane, it would exclude Tom Brady too.
Yes, the guy that claims his favorite part of the game is that it's popular is definitely the one living it. Lmao
Only liking soccer because it's the most popular might actually be the worst reason. Like, that's how people become fair weather fans. Personally, I love soccer because it's free flowing technical and creativity beauty and given the low scoring nature goals in soccer mean more.
Why is soccer so captivating?
1.5 billion people watched the World Cup Final. More than 10 times the Super Bowl audience.
Soccer is the only sport where you know the entire planet is locked in at the same time and that shared energy is unique and powerful.
It’s authentic. It’s global. It’s the king of sports.
He hit all the talking points and still proved his critics right. People like this will always hate MLS and it's because it's the top American League.
"I'm a cool American soccer fan that actually says USA sucks and is overrated by FIFA. We should actually be considered much worse!"
That's all this is. There isn't any objective reason to believe this 3rd party website is a better metric than the official FIFA rankings.
FIFA inflates the USMNT ranking.
They ignore home advantage. Elo accounts for it and ranks us 25th.
If we keep playing most friendlies, Gold Cups, and Copa Americas at home, Elo and the world will never respect us.
Even our World Cup victories were discounted because we played at home.
To beat the world, we need to test ourselves on the road.
We are insulated from real competition.

CLR James acknowledged Garvey's power as an orator, propagandist, mobiliser & his role in putting 'black consciousness" on stage. He wasn't totally dismissive. But he also compared Garvey to Hitler as a racial demagogue & a reactionary.

Admit it, you're offended that Liberia is mentioned in the same breath as Israel due to what Israel signifies out there (outpost of the empire etc). But as a Garveyite (Garvey explicitly invoked the Zionist movement as an inspiration) you know the comparison is too close to home.
They are comparing Liberia with Israel Again.
Liberia was not a black Israel. Liberia did not have apartheid laws or expel its native population like Israel did with the Palestinians. Liberia has had native Presidents and Vice Presidents since the 1910s.

Liberia practiced apartheid for a large portion of its history, creating legal barriers between African-American residents and native Africans that resulted in the settler group having systematically greater rights and access to political power.

This would be a blowout for the soccer players because soccer players are some of the most well rounded athletes in the world. They have speed, agility, strength, power, and conditioning. Baseball players basically have throwing and catching skill transfer advantage. That's it.
