Lightning bro... it happened, it finally happened. Nevermind its 12 days after the transfer window (lol), we did it...we got a striker. Praise the lord

Jonas on Benfica for 2 years (I believe with a option for a third)

thats a good question. probably will in January, let's see how we do in champions group phase I guess (where Jonas cant play), and theres always injuries and shit.

then again Jonas probably completely fucked our salary ceiling for this season so who knows.
 
I actually looked up the prices of the flights and it is like 50/50 if I could afford it. Might be better for me to come next season so I can actually afford to spend money on food and stuff to buy haha. Thanks and you better be able to get me tickets next year :p <3

If you get the tickets as soon as they issue them around March or April you get like 40% discount or somefing

Just let me know if you're actually going to get them so I can buy mine at that discounted price

The issue with free tickets is you can't decide where you want to sit :p

I've only sat behind goal at games. I really can't imagine being anywhere else. Mid-field would be nice due to being able to see everything laid out, but I dunno.... Something about a goal scored in the net you're behind is pretty awesome.

It wasn't enough of a clean out IMO. We kept Valencia and Young. Two players that anyone could argue were the two worst players on the squad.

what's worse:

Those guys that don't like a game because they read some shit sometime on the internet.

or

those guys that constantly belittle guys who don't like their game and constantly want you to ignore all the negative opinions, because they want to justify their own enthusiasm for game by stonewalling any criticism against it?

Videogaming simps.

How about when you just know what you like and it's not manufactured enthusiasm, you just are having fun. Makes the people trying to convince you that you aren't actually enjoying it sound extra stupid

You think anyone wanted them and could afford their high wages? We could have done Nani-type loan deals but I suppose LVG wanted backups at wing-back given how injury-prone our first-choice defenders are.

Anderson rejected a move to Brazil too.

Rumor is Juve are considering a Lichtsteiner - Rabiot swap with PSG in January. Probably bullshit, tied to the Johnson to Juve stories.

It was an awful moment. I thought that shit was never going to haunt me in my real life, but I was wrong.

Also the taxi that take me home was playing a great song in the radio, he even tried to shazam it to tell me the name of the song but it didn't turn up. Now I'm trying to find it by like 3 or 4 words I recognized from it. Fuck


nvm: I found it. Phil Collins - Don't Lose My Number

"We're focussing on our talents and that's why we wont spent a lot of money on a single player" -basically every higher up at Ajax

Proceeds to sell 3 of those talents...
 
Instead of playing Destiny I've had to work 600 miles from my home to watch my state give up $1.25 BILLION to entice Telsa to build their new gigafactory here. It took 2 days but they finally passed all the tax breaks, give always, tax credits, and abatements so that new battery factory is ours! Unless Tesla decides to go with Texas.

And yes, gigafactory is actually a thing. Who knew?
