[Nuno Saraiva] The Day Jesus Put an End to Christianity.

> Cristiano Ronaldo was the best. He no longer is. And it's not his fault, it's the dictatorship of time. This is not a criticism. It's life. It's football.

> The problem begins when people expect the past to keep ruling the present. Because the past matters. It's memory, identity, history. But it doesn't step onto the pitch.

> If Cristiano Ronaldo were Norwegian, would anyone imagine Haaland on the bench just because Ronaldo was the best player in the world? If he were French, would Mbappé have to leave the starting eleven because Cristiano once stood at the top? If he were English, would Kane lose his place for the same reason? Of course not.

> So why should it be any different because he's Portuguese?

> The National Team is not a museum. It is not a monument to Cristiano Ronaldo. It is a football team. And in a football team, whoever the manager feels should play, plays. This is what Jorge Jesus rightly decided to remind everyone, including Cristiano Ronaldo.

Deshaun Watson is not a very smart human being is he

Excluding the horrendous, credible allegations against him, he just really doesn't seem like he's that smart ... At all

She didn't have a square to spare

Mr. Bookman = Walt, and Jerry's landlord Sylvio, is Earl Chambers of Closets Closets Closets Closets. I'm pretty sure there are some other cameo crossovers as well, but these 3 are easily identifiable.

I don't know if I'd pay to listen/watch this lineup, but I'd strongly consider it.

I love how it is with Zas "leading", Mike is loose and seems to be enjoying himself, Amin is fun and not all on edge, Roy has been on a generational run with the sounders, Chris, well he's still Chris, and Jeremy also appears to be more joyful, and not in his usual annoying way lol.

Chris, dorm room, freshman year at college, right after he told his mom and dad that class was "very good", even though he hadn't been in a month, and plans to listen to Dashboard Confessionals on his bed the rest of the day.

Did Wendy's used to be more chili-forward?

Btw, the spicy chicken nuggets and chicken sandwiches at Wendy's are top tier for fast food. Chris is also correct, I've never known anyone besides a child to put more than a few fries into their frosty. Chocolate only, get that vanilla sh*t outta my face 😂

Does anyone else get ads, what feels like, every 3 minutes on Peacock while watching MF?

I can't watch it anymore on there, it legit feels like it's messing with my sanity. Turn an episode on, get an ad. Watch the intro, get an ad. Watch for 2-3 minutes, get an ad. Put it on pause, and come back and press play, get an ad.

Can't do it. Won't do it.
