Dinamo's european story continues the same way it always has - a solid performance ruined by a silly mistake. Shame, they were good for a draw yesterday.
Moharrami should know better than to give away such a cheap penalty and Drmić should have done a lot better with that 1 on 1 sitter he was gifted with by a horrible mistake from Salzburg's defender.

Still - I feel that we can beat them in Zagreb. Chelsea's win against Milan keeps the group fairly open.

The game was as good as Draw, but Zagreb's mistake made it worst that have let Salzberg take that opportunity away from them, and Moharrami clumsily brought down Ulmar thus the penalty kick have given to Salzberg, a mistake Moharrami will not forget because it cost them to draw the game, but again a draw is also great than with a win over Salzberg,

The first three legs of the champions League have been played and three teams have already qualified for the next round, Which are Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Napoli,and I believe this gives us a clue of the teams that will reach the final and better still win it, most teams are not up to it this season,like Liverpool,juventus and Tottenham, but I think for now Manchester city are the first favourite, they are playing on another dimension ever since Erling Haaland was signed,then there is real Madrid who has history, experience and luck in this competition then we have Bayern Munich.

Don't forget about Club Brugge KV, they also have 3 wins, 0 draws, and 0 losses, which qualify them for the next round, I think there is another match for Manchester City VS Copenhagen on October 12, Dinamo Zagreb VS RB Salzberg, in matchday 4 they are repeating their match again and Manchester City VS Copenhagen I think will be the same Man City will still dominate against Copenhagen, While Zagreb VS Salzberg will be a draw this time, there is no rooms for error now and if Salzberg win this again, they will surely have the rights to win this,


The presence of Haaland can make it easier for Manchester City to get what they want so far, the Champions League trophy is still a dream that has not yet become a reality for Manchester City. Since Haaland joined Manchester City, hopes of getting the Champions League Trophy are getting bigger. Haaland has transformed into one of the new goal scorers for Manchester City.
Victory after victory continues to be obtained by Manchester City in every match, Haaland also never stops scoring goals. Pep Guardiola must be able to keep his players from being prone to injury, he has to rotate in some games that are considered easy to give rest for the main players. So far Manchester City has only been able to shine in the domestic league, now is the time for Manchester City and Haaland to pursue a dream that they have never achieved so far in the Champions League.

With just one player Manchester City is changed from a great team to now an even more amazingly great team with Erling Halland in their team this is the perfect opportunity for them, and Erling Halland is showing great spirit in playing with Manchester City, from being a player that has always missed a game because of injury on Dortmund in the last season of Bundesliga from getting so many goals with the team he always wanted to be part of, I guess he has now have great chemistry in the Man City to done it,

Do people want to see Jon Jones fight again? I am serious - do you guys really miss Jon Jones ? I think a lot of UFC fans has already forgotten about him. He is already inactive for 2.5 years, JJ is 35 already. I have huge doubts that he will achieve something big in heavyweight division now. Probably he will be like Alex Gustafsson, returns to UFC after a pause and go to sleep in first round. And that is what stops businessman Dana White from returning him back. He will pay him a lot, but after the first fight that business project must be closed.

In actuality I really don't miss him at all, for me, he is worthless now, for me he is not champion material For me top 6 in the heavyweight division will be a hardtime for Jon Jones, I think Tom Aspinall will be a gatekeeper for him that he can not enter because for me Aspinall is enough for him in not getting high the rankings up to the championship I think this is just a poor choice from Dana White, getting fighters that are done for and keep on coming back,


Hehehehe agreed. However this is being hyped in the some news articles and in social media already. It also appears this chicken legs will be uncle Dana's next candidate after Cyril Gane to bash Francis Ngannou. If Bones Jones is the winner, he might be much easier to control by the UFC in contract dealings. Ngannou has rejected all proposals from the UFC and as we have witnessed, he has become a problem.

I doubt he can defeat Ciryl Gane for me I will bet for Gane on this that chicken legs will not withstand a leg kick from the top 6 fighters for sure, I really think Dana White is really desperate in this Jon Jones coming back thing that he doesn't see the big picture in getting back to Jon Jones I really don't know what Jones has said to him to make a big impression because for me Jon Jones is not really irrelevant anymore getting him into big deals like these can not get him to anything,

Call me a degenerate but I've currently got a 16/1 for the following bet builder (was previously 12/1):

1. Haarland - Over 2.5 shots on target ---> currently averaging 2.5 in premier league, almost 2 goals a game. Even two goals is at even odds lol. Otherwise is 1/2 as single bet.
2. Foden - Over 1.5 shots on target ---> currently averaging around 1 per p/l game. Woke up after Man Utd hat trick, also Haarland learnt to pass inside 6 year box.
3. Both teams to score ---> man city aren't known for their clean sheets, as they don't need one when scoring over 3-4 per game in P/L.

I'm generally anticipating a least a few City goals, though after Man U game don't want to be betting how many goals either team can achieve.
Didn't even bother betting on Man City to win, barely changes the already high odds. Part 2 & 3 are roughly 2/1 odds individually.
Copenhagen very likely to get trashed in this one as aren't having a great start to their season so far.

PS - Can someone let me know of a bitcoin-based gambling site similar to bet365 with bet building options for footy?


Well, it is OK if you choose what to bet for the following Football game because of the high odds on some Manchester City games, like in the Manchester City VS Copenhagen game, Why not try Stake.com you can build a bet with it but I think there are just limited things you can do with their Bet builder page, but anyway try it if you like,



Here are the result of my picks,

FC Salzburg VS GNK Dinamo Zagreb GOAL 1 - 0 - LOST

This game is definitely close I think both defenders had done a great job in defending especially Dominik Livaković from Dinamo, And Salzburg only made a goal with a penalty goal via Noah Okafor, Livakovic had gone the wrong way but yeah the game can really end with a draw aswell

RB Leipzig VS Celtic Glasgow GOAL 3 - 1 - WIN

Just like I thought it will be a one-sided game, I really think Leipzig has more effort in the champion league than the Bundesliga they dominated the game with a 3 - 1 goal, and Christopher Nkunku was the 1st to make a goal, then on 2nd half Jota  made a goal for Celtic, then Andre Silva made the last 2 goals for Leipzig to win against Celtic,

SL Benfica VS Paris Saint-Germain FC GOAL 1 - 1 - DRAW

PSG likely has a high chance of winning this but sad to say bad luck strikes when their center-back Danilo Pereira made a mistake an own goal to their net, when Lionel Messi with the assist of Neymar made the 1st goal then Danilo Pereira ruined it with that mistake is a terrible draw for PSG,

Manchester City FC VS FC Copenhagen GOAL 5 - 0 - WIN

It was a massacre, on what happened to this game, and completely one-sided game that is what happens with this, 1st strike was for Erling Halland then 2nd strike was from Erling Halland aswell, then an Own goal by Davit Khocholava for Man City's Net then Riyad Mahrez penalty goal, then lastly Julian Alvarez goal, it was a total annihilation against Copenhagen,

They need to adjust to make it safer for every fighter when they step inside the ring, the mistake that has been made before
should not be happening anymore.

Fighters nowadays are balance with the weight and the capabilities, it will be on their skills and talents that they will standup
from their opponents, good competitions, and much safer fights.

Though there are still some cases especially during the amateur fights but all in all it's lesser comparing from the old era of this sport.

From the old boxing, there are sure changes from the recent boxing to the boxing now, there were rules that needed to add just to make the sports even safer but apparently, it is not enough for those brain damage can not be determined in just by looking at the fighters it will only occur only on the fight, there are indeed deaths in the MMA but that is prevented and decrease with the judgment of the referee's so it is really a more challenging job for the referee's because in there hands in the lives of the said fighter

A particular fighter needs to fight in their said given division but in the exhibition matches fighters can fight any fighter in any division but with just a limited number of rounds of 3 to 5, well many are in favor of the said decreasing of the rounds on boxing but I think it is a safer way to lessen certain deaths inside the ring,


That won't happen as per reducing the rounds, there are specific rounding counts depending on the weight limit per se. It's unavoidable really because it's a contact sport.
The boxers are aware of those risks because even a long time ago, they've heard and seen the news about a sudden passing through major blows on the temple.
That's the risk they know and their trainers are also assessing that so that it won't happen to the fighters that they're coaching. They know what's best for each of them and they've already embraced this as a chosen profession.

Well, the boxing commission really knows this aswell but they can not reduce certain rounds because boxing will now be boring to watch in a limited round what can they do to prevent it and to lessen the death, they are now admitting that they can not do a thing to this kind of problem but I don't really think coaches or the fighter can remedy that part with their training, but in further more years to come, it is just going to be uglier if they chooses to change certain rules in the declining popularity of Boxing over MMA like I have said if the

Here are my picks for the UEFA Champions League Tomorrow I can not make a bet yet because I haven't had gambling funds for now, but I will share my picks

FC Salzburg VS GNK Dinamo Zagreb

Stake odds for this game are 1.74 for Salzburg while 3.95 for Draw and 4.70 for Zagreb, for this game I think Dinamo Zagreb is pretty much getting good with their craft and has many wins so far than Salzburg and for me, I think GNK Dinamo Zagreb will humiliate Salzburg so my pick is GNK Dinamo Zagreb,

RB Leipzig VS Celtic Glasgow

Stake odds for this game are 1.54 for Leipzig while 4.70 for a draw and 5.60 for the Celtics, well, both teams don't have any win yet, but for me, I will definitely think Leipzig has got what they need to win here so my pick is RB Leipzig,

SL Benfica VS Paris Saint-Germain FC

The stake odds for this game are 3.80 for Benfica while 4.10 for a draw and 1.88 for PSG, for this game I think that PSG will surely hand it over to Benfica, they are the favorite here and PSG is what I think may win and in their recent games they surely need a little push just to win it, so my pick is Paris Saint-Germain FC,

Manchester City FC VS FC Copenhagen

The Stake odds for this game are 1.04 for Man City while 16.00 for the draw and 50.00 for Copenhagen not advisable to make a bet here, but right now Copenhagen is not doing great they even lost to Dortmund, so this clearly seals the deal that Manchester City will win this,


2426  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: October 05, 2022, 01:25:38 PM

It is undeniable that the productivity of Manchester City's goals continues to increase. Their fast attack pattern is always effective in breaking into the opponent's goal. But in the second half of the match between Manchester City vs Manchester United I saw a drastic improvement in the performance of Manchester United. even though it's too late. but getting 3 goals against Manchester city is a good achievement I think. But still Manchester city is superior in every way compared to Manchester United.
I wonder if Manchester City can score more goals against Southampton in the next game.

It will surely continue to be this way for Manchester City's Formation was undeniably perfect Erling Haaland was in the front middle while Phil Foden and Jack Grealish are both side by side by Halland, with this formation they have broken Manchester United's defense and got their best offense it was a remarkable game to watch Phil Poden has 3 goals and Erling Halland also has 3, It was a dominating game for the Manchester City,


I hope so. Liverpool was not in the best performance. That means arsenal has more chance to win against liverpool rather than loosing with it. Liverpool has been winning again rangers with 2-0. This may make make liverpool to make a comeback against arsenal. Arsenal must play with all of its performance to be able to beat liverpool. In my opinion learned from last match of arsenal and i do believe arsenal has consider how performance from the liverpool. Liverpool was at the ninth position compared with arsenal that is still consistent and it's still at the top position till now.
I trust arsenal for this match rather than liverpool. The different thing when mane was still playing for liverpool.

Yup! Arsenal is now on the top of the standings and right now they have 7 wins for the premier league and 1 loss, Brentford and Tottenham don't stand a chance and Arsenal Coach Mikel Arteta is really amazing and was behind those amazing plays that they are doing, And Gabriel Jesus is really going on with their play having him in the front of the positionplay was really an amazing strategy well but for me I will still say that Manchester City will still win this I am a Man City fan after all, but the way Arsenal have landed on the 1st of the standing was amazing aswell,

Well, congrats to you for making correct predictions on the underdog, but I really don't recommend underdogs sometimes if they don't prove much, you would just waste money on them, but if you see an underdog that can prove anything is possible, and is good in paper, then go with underdogs you can surely accumulate a large amount of money,

I don't think we can avoid it, boxing organization is doing everything they can prior to the fight, test and everything to see how healthy the boxer is. Maybe reducing the rounds again? but it won't be as competitive.

I think reducing the rounds are the only thing they can do for now, even though the Boxer might seem healthy brain damage is unavoidable and can not be determined by certain test there where news, where a kid is just practicing boxing and then suddenly collapse because of the hard training certainly those trainer gloves, will sometimes hit a part of the head, and if it is continuously been hit it will surely stress out and may cause Brain damage,

Because the sport of boxing is continuously taking trauma or stress to the head that fighters will certainly cause damage to the brain,



Referee in MMA I would say is very sensitive of the fight, if they see that the fighters is slipping up, they stop it right away. In boxing it's different, there are a lot of misjudgement on them that could result in deaths in my opinion.

Yup! like many are saying that prevention is more likely better than a cure, early stoppage will be needed if the referee would see that the fighters can not take any hit anymore, while on boxing they will need to count from 1 to 10 if a fighter can not stand anymore furthering the damage to the head,

~
I want Cyril Gane to Whack Jon Jone's head for Assaulting his wife, well that means I want to see Cyril Gane fight that is all, but I want Gane to teach Jones not to hurt women, and sure enough his fiancee, I don't really like Jon Jones and yes no Francis Ngannoue for the time being Jon Jones should learn the word patient, in getting what he wants,
The plan for Jon Jones is to fight 3 to 4 times in the Heavyweight division and then end his career. If Ciryl Gane faces Jon Jones i believe Jones will be able to defeat him because he is a striker and we have seen many times how Jon Jones would dismantle a striker with his unorthodox fighting style and his fight IQ.

Dangerous opponent for Jon Jones would be always who has one punch knockout power and so was the reason i was always interested to watch him and Anthony Johnson but unfortunately we were not able to witness that encounter.

Jon Jones might have a fight IQ but for me not as good as Cyril Gane and while Jon Jones will now be fighting his very 1st Heavyweight fight, from a Light Heavyweight Division, Cyril Gane moves like a Light Heavyweight but was fighting on the Heavyweight division I could say the Speed of Cyril Gane will be a pretty much advantage he has, and he is naturally fighting in the Heavyweight, and don't underestimate Cyril Gane's strength and punching power I was shocked the time he put a technical Knockout over Derrick Lewis Unorthodox it was but Ciryl Gane can surely read a guys movement, he might have a hardtime against Tai Tuivasa because of Tuivasa's durability, but Jone Jones doesn't have that,

If Jon Jone's weakness was a fighter who can 1 shoot his opponent then don't underestimate Cyril Gane's punching power that KOe'd Derrick Lewis,


Yeah..  And it's also the way he lost vs Chikadze.  Chikadze made Swanson look like an old man in the cage.  Wait...  He is an old man.  Lol.  But against Martinez, dunno.  The guy is chinny.  I think Swanson is a live dog in this spot.  Would I bet it?  Nope.  Do I like the spot enough to pick Swanson in my lottery ticket?  I'd prolly place it near the lowest tier, if not at the lowest.

Anyway, was browsing UFC's YT channel and found these.  I think Oliviera both on the ground and at stand up could be a handful for Makhachev.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGuM5oUGFiA

UFC Free Fight:  Oliviera vs Gaethje

Well, for me I doubt Cub Swanson can win this, and like you have said he looks kind of old with his age, I really think he is on a verge of retiring if he lost this fight, while Jonathan Martinez pretty much might struggle from Swanson but he can win this if he can have a decent ground game but I doubt but anyway just like you I don't want to tackle on this so much and I am not going to bet either,

At the moment Bayer Leverkusen is playing against Porto in the Champignons League. Those in charge will be watching very closely to see how the coach is acting and how the team is playing. I think if they will lose Gerardo Seoane will be sacked tomorrow and a new coach will have to be brought in. The next game in the Bundesliga is against Schalke.

And now because of that devastating loss to Porto Say goodbye to Gerardo Seoane and say hello to Heiko Herrlich the new Leverkusen coach joining a 2-year contract deal with the club so sad about Seoane but that is how things go in the Bundesliga if your team is not performing well a coach will need to leave, and they will move to a new coach that has handled Regensburg Success,


I do not think that anybody is expecting either Union Berlin or Freiburg to win the league from bayern, the two of them are doing very well for now and they occupy the top two positions in the league table, but it cannot be for so long, the team that can win the trophy from bayern is Dortmund, so for people that do not want bayern to win the league again, they have to hope Dortmund get into their best form and climb to the top of the table, but Union Berlin and Freiburg can't take the title from bayern.

Both teams are not the favorite to win the championship of the Bundesliga this goes to show that fans that they are still believing that whether Bayern Munich or some other teams will surely become champion and they are expecting Bayern Munich to get their momentum back now that they had a new formation and Sadio Mane got his position that he is playing on his previous team back, so there is a chance that they will be pretty hard to beat judging the play through they have against Leverkusen but still waiting for harder opponents for Bayern Munich,

2431  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: October 05, 2022, 04:35:07 AM
I think one of them will stay because even though at the moment Liverpool's condition is quite unsatisfactory, Liverpool is one of the candidates that I think will qualify and the other club is one of Ajax and Napoli.
But indeed this may have to be seen from Liverpool's second match with these two teams because if they do lose again it is likely that Napoli and Ajax can and Liverpool must be willing to go to the Europa League.

We can also be shocked by a different result and right now Inter has fought well and defeated Barcelona Lewandowski hasn't done much and in that game, maybe he is still coping up with his teammates and doesn't know his gameplay, this has made them fall to the 3rd spot of the standing in Group C

But Liverpool now have won against Rangers with 2 - 0 after that drawn game against Brighton in the premier league they manage to win in the UEFA Champion, I think they are pretty much determined and getting on the 2nd place of the standing, in Group A,


Funny enough Ajax has been humiliated by Napoli, 1:5 in 63minutes and I doubt if Napoli is done scoring the goals because from the look of things the Ajax defense is looking very porous and Napoli players are taking the advantage to shoot from all angles, it's really a bad day for Ajax because this season's champions league is not working for them because they have lost 2 matches already and having Napoli and Liverpool in the group means they can't make in to the next stage.

Well Humiliated because of the score and yes it was a 1 to 6 goal win for Napoli over Ajax, Napoli sure crashed Ajax the way they should not do it, and now Napoli have come up to the top of the Standings in Group A and Napoli is hugging all so well with 9 points in Group A, but on the start of the game Ajax is pretty much doing amazing in taking 1 goal from Napoli, Courtesy Mohammed Kudus then a couple of minutes Napoli strikes back with Giacomo Raspadori's goal Then Raspadori got his Yellow card with a poor challenge on Bassey, then the domination of Napoli continues from what I have seen,

2432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: October 04, 2022, 06:32:33 PM

I agree that their victory over Bayern Munich was a stroke of luck, because if you look at the statistics of the match it should be a win that belongs to Bayern Munich. But despite all that, Augsburg's performance has improved, although not significantly. But it's good to see their next game. the positive trend they slowly gain and slowly to leave further from the red zone. Their next match will be against Wolfsburg, of course this is not an easy match for them.

Well, their momentum has suddenly changed at the last minute of the game, and the possibility of a goal can surely make a player's fighting spirit rises, well I think in the heat of the match they have eventually gained momentum while Bayern Munich is still on a verge of confusion that time, Augsburg in a stroke of luck from that goal has Risen their gameplay for defense,


I think, Bayern Munich are still in a good position to embrace this season title because their coach is seriously working to ensure the team will not experience any defeat from any team to improve their points. Since Bayern Munich strikers and midfielders are very ready to work together to keep the winning going, showed that they will definitely achieve victory from their remaining matches to prepare the minds of their fans that they have what it takes to win this title. I think, union Berlin coach need to work on their defense before their next match because they didn't act well in this match that made Frankfurt to defeated them 2-0.

Bayern Munich still got the game on them and I think they are having problems with the player's position and how to seek it, and the conclusion, they let both Jamal Musiala and Thomas Muller in the front where both of them have taken the position of Lewandowski and I think it is not a bad idea at all, while Sadio Mane and Leroy Sane take the Winger position, in this kind of position they have effectively make 4 goals,

Well Union Berlin should really work on their defense and against Frankturf they have got their 1st loss in the Bundesliga, I really thought they can maintain a no-loss record for this season but again no team is vulnerable indeed,

Nono, this event is actually really good for a Fight Night, non PPV event.  Some good match ups in here imho.  I'm liking Jonathan Martinez vs Cub Swanson, Askar Askarov vs Brandon Royval,  Magny vs Daniel Rodriguez, Melsik Baghdasaryan vs Joanderson Brito, Nick Maximov vs Jacob Malkoun and the banger of bangers Dusko Todorovic vs Jordan Wright!  Bet on the under for that one for sure.  Cheesy

The main event is just ok but I'm pretty sure there's like a couple of people itt drooling over Alexa Grasso.  Cheesy

I really thought that Cub Swanson was never going to fight anymore but seeing this fight I was kind of OK at 1st but then I realize that this is Swanson the guy that lost to Giga Chikadze, but I think he is back for more, Askar Askarov VS Brandon Royval is another great fight as well I have just forgotten to mention,

Well, that Fighting Kitty Alexa Grasso is one hot chick and you can say that we are drooling to gaze at her fighting inside the octagon, but for us it is a treat to watch her winning it as well,


They won't give him this fight right away, but Dana White don't like Francis Ngannou  and feeling is mutual so anything could happen.
Last I heard is that John Jones should fight Stipe Miocic, but Ciryl Gane is offering himself after his last messy win against Tai Tuivasa.
I want to see JJ finally fighting again in 2022 and they can pick anyone they want, but I think we may have to wait for next year.



I want Cyril Gane to Whack Jon Jone's head for Assaulting his wife, well that means I want to see Cyril Gane fight that is all, but I want Gane to teach Jones not to hurt women, and sure enough his fiancee, I don't really like Jon Jones and yes no Francis Ngannoue for the time being Jon Jones should learn the word patient, in getting what he wants, a

RIP for the guy. Another death for boxing, another day of mourning. What could be possible changes in boxing to avoid future casualties? Boxing is a sport for the warriors though. These guys know that death is always in play once they enter the ring either for a real fight or a sparring session.

When there's a boxing casualty, it always leads me to remember when a boxing promoter tried to stop the UFC from becoming mainstream. I think it was Bob Arum or Don King, calling MMA as a sport for barbarians and branding it as very dangerous and it needs to be stopped. Correct me if I am wrong but I haven't heard of any deaths or fighters in a coma in the UFC or in MMA in general.

This is a sad truth about boxing when a fighter was continuously been hit to the head it will surely cause some damage to the brain, that is why there are more recorded deaths in Boxing than in MMA, and this is even with gloves on what if the fight was bare-knuckle, there will be a lot of deaths in combat sports for sure,

I think t was Simon Jordan that commented that MMA was more brutal and barbaric but Michael Bisping has put him in his place because Bisping knows he is spouting nonsense and doesn't really know MMA and MMA have come in different kinds of sports not only boxing, and if you look at the technical aspect of thing with MMA it consistently changing its rules to suite its safety and prevention on further damage for the fighter,


There's few deaths caused by MMA, but it's much less than boxing as you can compare it yourself here [1] [2]

I don't think there's a change on boxing to reduce the possibility of death because it just can't. Maybe the referee can make an early stoppage, but most boxers wouldn't agree with that and trying to convince the referee if he can still fight.

Most boxers doesn't realize if they're suffering a brain damage because there's no sign of the disease during the fight, but after few hours they will realize if their body become weak or ill which mostly already too late.


[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatalities_in_mixed_martial_arts_contests

Thanks for those links certain people are more afraid of MMA than boxing and for saying how barbaric MMA is, and surely agreed with you that there can not be any rules that could change and prevent the number of deaths in boxing maybe if they can limit the rounds? that is why Mayweather prefers to fight only in exhibition matches because his body can not go beyond rounds 3 to 5 anymore and he knows that further casualties and injuring his health I think just decreasing the rounds that boxing could prevent certain deaths

It's not just that, I think menstruation, and pregnancy is included in the consideration. It's also happening in businesses and companies where they don't like women working because of the sudden absences or leaves due to the events mentioned.

Well, you are right there are certain things women have and can do that Men can not and that is giving birth, surely these types of things certainly are not allowed in a certain company and women also have a menstrual cycle where there are statistics that around 80% of women are feeling periods of pain in their lifetime and they can feel discomfort during these times, that mostly they can not work or their work may be disrupted, and those pain can surely be severe on their 1st day of periods, but in 5% to 10% of women the pain is sometimes severe enough to disrupt their life, their whole life routine worse some are bedridden because of these pains,

Nothing to say, we all witness how team US dominated the entire league, hopefully China and Aussie will improve more together with all the rest womens national representatives.

I think China has a women's basketball in their country and it is the WCBA or Women's Chinese Basketball Association which was established in 2002 and is a Chinese counterpart of the CBA or the Chinese Basketball Association China surely has its own WNBA in their country but yeah the level of competition might be not that much, but China's Women's Basketball has a player on the WNBA and that is Li Yueru from Chicago Sky and Han Xu from New York Liberty but yeah the whole team of the WNBA is really not fair than just getting 2 players at all, because the USA team is surely a dream team to behold,

Well, some might still think that they might be a championship contender even after what happened last season to them but what about Ayton?
Do you think that Ayton is still happy after what happened last season? Watch his interview with journalists regarding him being asked if how and Coach Monty's relationship right now. You can see in his face that he isn't happy, and he only says, "I'm Ok" or "It's Ok" etc. etc.

I believe that Ayton's relationship with the Coach might have an aftereffect on his performance though the effect of it is minimal, I guess. Paul is 36 already. He might past his prime, but I think this might be his last chance to win a title or his performance and efficiency might decline in the next years.

Deandre Ayton isn't happy anymore It was a sad sad man and another season that his payment is still the same I think Deandre Ayton needs a max contract if they want him to be a beast again, but I think that will not happen if he's not playing his 100% this season but I feel really sorry for him not getting what he wants I really think he needs to switch teams that will get him a salary he deserves and I think the Indiana Pacers is offering him 4-year, $133 million deal but the two sides have failed to get on terms,


It may not be over but he's running out of time. He should be tougher than he was as his stance so that scouters will get him.

He is unlucky and undrafted but not every good player gone through in draft phase.

He needs to become thick so that he is ideal to any team that will want to get him.

Kai Sotto is still in his 20 years of age and surely he needs to build up muscles for other teams to notice him that much this he is bulkier than Golden State's Patrick Baldwin jr. and I think if he could acquire faster momentum and get used to his surrounding he can surely play like Kevin Durant in my opinion, and I think my boy Kai Sotto will surely improve so much because he still has a lot of ceiling to fit up too,

He is just trying to take advantage of the opportunity while he's still famous and known because sooner or later, he will be forgotten and become an old news even if he got an undefeated record during his professional days. And now that he said that he's already done fighting a true fighter, I expect that he won't be fighting McGregor as well because if he accept that fight and rejected the idea to have an exhibition fight with Pacquiao, I will be convinced that he's just trying to duck the Filipino legend, AGAIN!

Yes, and look what he has gotten him in taking advantage of a Youtuber/boxer or an MMA/boxer to fight him in a boxing rule fight, he will surely win the fight, and the purposed of it was just money and entertaining himself, Well he will not surely take a boxer to fight him anymore so that Manny Pacquiao fight is really out of the picture,



Well, I think we are having a great match-up coming, this Saturday,

I have heard about that, and the former coach receives lots of criticism regarding to that comment.

But it's freedom of speech and no one can force her in whatever he wanted to tell, not even on a national TV nothing
can push her to make any related statement, not going to go deep about this and let the opinion of many describe
how they frustrate with this kind of reaction.

I really think it is her right to keep silent, and even though she has commented about Brittney Griner's situation right now, her words can not do a thing even if she would say a couple of things in the media, the fact that Griner already did something illegal to Russia it is not viable to criticize a Coach that only wants to keep her silent and her personal space to not be invaded, I can say Brittney Griner surely has toxic fans it is boiling in them why the WNBA doesn't do a thing about Griner's situation and I think her own action has to lead her to her demise, and there is no need to point fingers at anyone this is really Griner's fault she ended up in this situation, people should realize that before criticizing someone,

Forgot to mention that A'ja Wilson was awarded the Women's World Cup MVP and Alyssa Thomas for the Best Defensive Player.
Well, they deserve it, and congratulations to them.
I really wish there will be better competition in the next World Cup. This year it was too obvious which country will win it and the odds also show it.
Women's basketball seems to still lack a number of skilled players and perhaps it's also because of the lack of support from their respective countries.


WOW! that was impressive they really deserve those awards, and congratulations to them, they really deserve something for their wild performance, in both the WNBA and the Fiba Women's World Cup 2022,


Women's basketball is not as supported and as well funded as men's basketball. I think it is the same in every country. Just look how small WNBA is against NBA. US is lucky there is a league for women's basketball. Women basketball players can develop their skills through WNBA.

I do not think there are leagues in other countries for women's basketball. I believe we do not have one in our own country as well. And if there is, I am not aware of it.

Well, sad to say that is a harsh truth and we can not blame them it is in the history that Men Suppresses women in the whole world, this is really common, they tend to think of women as just fragile and not capable of doing things men do, and with total discrimination about that women are weak and just needs to be at home to do house chores, I think history has to blame,

But wishing that most countries that are included in the Fiba Women's World Cup will now have time to train their women in getting into basketball or having funds for them to be trained,

Adelaide 36ers Vs Phoenix Suns

Adelaide 36ers had a really enjoyable game. Both passing and shooting in this game were really entertaining. The movement on and off the ball was great from the players of Adelaide 36ers.

The Adelaide 36ers have shocked the Phoenix Suns, many are really criticizing what just happened and thinking the Adelaide 36ers are a new team in the NBA so why did the Suns lose, or commenting that he is ordering a jersey from Adelaide 36ers, Or the Phoenix Suns just underestimated the Adelaide 36ers, and they are not serious about the game, Craig Randall II and Robert Franks both got their 30 plus score for the game while Devin Booker and Chris Paul had terrible points or they are because it is just Preseason they are not performing their best, but we can not push this up so much like this is a big deal this is preseason game and I think the Phoenix Suns might be holding up, but adding this up my boy Kai Sotto only 20 years old is having a great time there making 11 points for this Preseason game against the Suns,

Philadelphia 76ers vs Brooklyn Nets

I think it is going to be quite an interesting game. The Philadelphia 76ers feel like the most complete team heading into the upcoming season. Nets, with some of the recent moves they have made, do not convince me that they are positioned to be a very effective team moving into the upcoming season. But obviously, this is going to be a pre-season match. So, I don't think that the teams are going to be overly concerned about this one. But it will be interesting to see Simmons' debut.

I will not think so much about this matchup because this is a preseason game and this is the time their benched players have a chance to got to show their skills and talent for the game,  and Ben Simmons is now on the Brooklyn Nets team and will be playing against his former team the    Philadelphia 76ers and right now James Harden will be playing as well against Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving but I do not expect much action and for both teams to be using that much their Ace players, for this preseason games this is likely going to be a Bench player starting game, then a small percentage of their key players just to see their chemistry with each other,


The game is not that interested when the superstars aren't playing because we can't really feel the intensity if the lead players aren't there. But these pre-season games are also good because the other players in the roster can establish their skills to the public and it's a good warm-up for both teams before the season will start, formally.

Also, just like what you've said, pre-season games don't really matter so it's not really embarrassing if Bucks or Grizzlies will get defeated. But speaking of embarrassment this pre-season games, it's hard not to mention the Phoenix Suns because they got defeated and bullied by a non-NBA team named Adelaide 36ers especially when the trio of the Suns was there playing. Can't really imagine what the Point God, CP3 felt after the game.

Yup! I really don't think much about the Preseason game for the NBA and It really doesn't matter for them to lose the game aswell but showing their bench players their ability for the team and putting up teams up that the team also isn't using much and seeing their chemistry as well,

Well that game is also a preseason and I don't really know if the Phoenix Suns intentionally lost to the Adelaide 36ers as I mention the Phoenix Suns also just using the bench players for this game it is like they are really underestimating the Adelaide 36ers, but the fans of the Phoenix Suns is not happy about them losing to a non-NBA team like that they should have put in the effort of just winning,

Only cancelled fight could have saved that event from being boring Cheesy Another filler with chicks in the main event.

When I saw the Canceled fight I also think the same but for me, I like the main event because I really want to watch Alexa Grasso and because this fight was rescheduled, and most of the fight was slightly boring in my opinion and Neil Magny VS Daniel Rodriguez was really a let down it should be a rematch between Daniel Rodriguez and Li Jingliang

As to Dern vs Yan event - Mark Zuckerberg was actually on this event. I even found few vids in his instagram of him practicing strikes in MMA gloves. The nerd probably found out what MMA is got excited about it, visit first event and now pissing his pantie because of happyness.

Apparently, a lot of UFC fighters are not glad for Mark Zuckerberg being on ringside, well they roast Zuckerberg while Mark Zuckerberg is enjoying the fight so much, but what can you say when a guest and surely a potential investor that recently exercised MMA Dana White is very please in giving in for him to be there at ring side, Uncle Dana White really wants money,


Good luck with that chicken legs Cheesy


That would definitely crack the moment he tries to hit his shin guard to Francis Ngannoue's Shin guard, If this fight Continues I will not be Surprise if Jon Jones would lost and Ngannoue wins the fight with KO/TKO via injury like what happened with Tom Aspinall with his fight with Curtis Blaydes,
