Seven tell me you saw this: Nederland 1 Studio Voetbal, they just showed the worst side to Platini

Jack van Gelder: "Ik had 'm al eerder ontmoet, nare man, echt een enorme kwal"

Then they show a clip of an NOS journalist asking a question and Platini consistently ignoring him :howler:

EDIT: they weren't done yet, Jack just said something like "Blatter en Platini liggen natuurlijk in hetzelfde bed" regarding policies and ideas to which Hugo Borst replied: "Ik wist niet dat 't een bruinwerker was" :D

Platini is gonna suffer a lot of PR issues in Holland.
DAMN DAMN DAMN. I decide not to watch the show one time. I completely agree with them though. Platini has a complete lack of class and TBH I would be very surprised if it turns out he's not corrupt.

Exaclty how does that work?
I can't say with specifics, but there are several major sports in the U.S. where, for the sake of league parity and competitiveness, teams not only share TV revenues but there's also a salary cap for what the entire squad can shell out relative to other squads.

Lega Calcio debated the value of doing something like this, but there's so many cash exchages under the table in Italy it's kind of ridiculous. In the U.S., you sometimes find clubs where having a couple players with immense salaries requires them to do some financial sandbagging -- either by complementing them with cheaper players or, in the more confusing case to me, deferring salary like an amortized loan over future seasons.

Take the NFL's SF 49ers. They spent like drunken sailors to win their last Super Bowl over 10 years ago, signing top dollar players and playing some amortization games with salaries. While the 49er ownership changes have contributed as much as anything to their miserable play in the years that followed, another factor was the salary cap: they were still carrying salaries of expensive players from previous seasons years forward, forcing them to field a very cheap team to keep under cap for a while.

I've tried syrian food. Not lot of things they got and they mainly do/prepare Lebanese food. They don't have their own variety.
The food differs from city to other, mainly the better food is the "halabi" one, and ofcourse it differs from a restaurant to the other, generally the food is good, I don't know if the Syrians who prepare Lebanese food, or if the Lebanese who prepare Syrian food, I really don't know the history, but yeah they are similar, some of the Lebanese way of preparation is better, and some of the halabi foods better than the Lebanese..

But in General, Lebanese Meza's Variation is more, and mostly the Meza there is more delicious :agree:

But Nothing Beats Lebaenese Man2oushet and Saj, God I miss them :toast:

Anyway, I don't think Lebanese ever prepared syrian food, I never heard that TBH.
