also i think the physical quality of young black female actresses on sitcoms has decreased significantly since the 90s, and no one better fukking argue with me for 5 pages about it either :birdman:

Nah, Rachel more Pam Grier, imo. Stacey Dash is on that Halle Berry, "I look the same as I did in 1993" status.


The other joint from that period, Michelle Thomas and those titties. :rip:

club level tell me the teams that had a roster full of talents like Madrid, Barca, Man u and many top teams have now?...u kno that wasnt the case so dont even start..club level is now superior to NT for sure unlike before..the thing is that also the talent was more spread out before too since "money" wasnt big like it is now and many players stayed and played for the same team for years unlike now..
Madrid's isn't that nice. Outside of Ronaldo they don't have a player better than Makalele. Higuain, Benzema, Ozil, Modric, Di Maria? These guys have done nothing. Got styled on by Bayern and :cape:'d by UEFA. Barca? This isn't one of the better recent Barca teams. Sanchez? Done nothing. Mascherano? Dog shyt. Villa? David Busst. Utd?:heh: Rooney looks like a fat tree surgeon. They're a system team.

everytime frush or anyone here says football players aint as good anymore i just :snoop::rudy:

the globalization of the game has taken away the "aura" of some players and nowadays everything is covered and seen unlike before...to me if anything i dont remember seeing that many good players ever talent wise..the game has evolved and like kunty says there is more games now and squad rotation is a MUST...

the problem( to me is a blessing) is that Messi/CR7 are once in a generation players and are a level above everyone else and it takes away from other great players that in other eras would be considered great or the best...when modern football (late 70's/ early 80's) "started" tell me how many players would score as many goals as say messi or cr7? they make it look easy but tell me what great players were scoring as many goals and making it look easy like them after "modern" football started? people were amazed when the R9 scored around 40 for Barca once but messi has done that for years and people are so spoiled nowadays by the likes of messi that when he doesnt score its a travesty/worst thing ever..

what globalization also did is the professionalism of football nowadays is much higher than before...shyt teams/countrys are more competitive/ or harder to break down do to the technological/medical/training advancements in soccer...the game was slower and there was more space back then but it has to do with what i stated above...now there isnt enough "space" but that has to do with the fact there is better training/athletes even in shyt countries/teams...also there is more "specialist" than before too but it has to do with the "space" on the pitch and tactical advancments made..

This is all well and good, but where is the dynamism, and greatness. Yes Messi and Cristiano are great, but the gap with the next group of so-called players shouldn't be so big.

I know the training is better, and all that, but for me, and me only, I don't see it resulting in better players skill wise. Just more functional players who can do a lot of things "well", and but can't do one thing really well.

it hurts my heart how well balotelli is balling these days. Mancini needs to go for under utilizing and failing to motivate what will soon be one of the worlds best strikers.
