Nick Against the World (114 Viewers)

[swag]

I just watched the Milan-Lecce match, and, no offense to Nick or anyone else who thinks the refs favor Juve, but the goddamn timekeeper gave Milan 5 MINUTES of stoppage time to get the winner.....

It was 1-1, and into the 4th minute os stoppage time, Pippo scored

There should have only been 2 or 3 minutes at the most added :ferocious

If it was done FAIRLY, it would have been a draw

but you know, Milan tied at the San Siro, at the end of regulation...........:rolleyes2

Agreed that 5 minutes of extra time really shocked me and seemed a bit gratuitous given the severity of stoppages in the second half.

But I can't really conclude that 3 minutes of stoppage wouldn't result in a Milan score. They may have gotten more desperate sooner and still scored, etc. You can't be sure what would have happened.

But even so, yes, 5 minutes seemed excessive, IMO.

Not looking for excuses. Just finding it strange, as it won't cause the kind of uproar Juve gets when this sort of thing happens and they are involved.

Once again tonight, Milan showed their proficiency at playing down to the level of their competition. I certainly am hoping for better tomorrow at the delle Alpi.

Hoping !

you have doubt mate ?

Now way brother we are gonna crush them at delle Alpi make sure brother trust me

I'm not expecting "crush", but I'm thinking 2-0. 2-1 if they capitalize on a lucky fluke defensive lapse.

SEVERE DAMAGE AFTER STORM

Amsterdam, Netherlands - The remarkably early winter storm that's been battering most of Northern Europe Friday has calmed down in most parts, and the extensive damage it did to the infrastructure in our country is only just beginning to show, government officials said this morning.

The damage is severe throughout the nation. Train services to the East have been cancelled due to severe snow fall as weather stations in Arnhem and Eindhoven reported 40 centimeters within the first hours of the storm.

With the storm hitting full force only later in the day on Friday; most people were already at work and the evening rush hour created a situation of total chaos that paralised the nation as traffic jams with a total length of 802 kilometers chocked virtually all the highways in the country. Authorities quickly made sure necessary means reached those stuck in their cars; food, water and blankets were handed out to people, some of whom had not driven an inch in over eleven hours.

There are no reported casualties as yet, and the restoration works have begun early today as the storm moved on. But the provincial government of Zeeland in the South West has reported that some islands can still not be reached as bridges have collapsed or have at least been severely damaged due to hurricane winds and pounding seas. Extra ferry services are being used to make up for the total destruction of road- and railways, as well as airports.

Gah, I was gonna go to my parents' this weekend but there aren't *any* train or bus services going far enough. I can only get about halfway Stoopid winter. They told me October was insanely warm compared to the average and now November is insanely cold. What the F*CK is going on

Interesting to say the least. I assume Holland has about the same climate as the Northwestern United States, so having a late November snowstorm is a bit early indeed. And considering Holland has the North Sea to the West, the warmer sea water must keep the temperatures a bit higher on the mainland, thus reducing the possibility of frozen precipitation.

 

[Bjerknes]

Yeah, combinet with rear wheel drive in most american cars, and it's no wonder why there are massive traffic jams every time you have snowfall.

Only in some parts of the nation where snowfall is not a usual occurance. Up in Detroit the average temperature during winter is around freezing, and with lake effect snowfall every once in a while people become accustomed to driving in it, no matter the vehicle. However, down in the dirty south, people have no clue what they're doing driving in that sh*t...just ask Pado what happens when one inch of snow falls outside of Raleigh..

We can always count on our Juventuz weather man.

Of course, and put the forum to sleep with my meteorlogical rants. Perhaps I should find a new, more weather-based forum.

That sounds like something lifted in its entirety from the program's undergrad recruitment brochure.

That's enough.

I remember when I went to Amsterdam a few years ago all the water channels were frozen and people were ice skating on them. Pretty cool

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

I went in the summer, all the people were smoking it upp.

 

[Dragon]

Sounds good. I cant really stand cold weather

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

I'm used to it, and prefer it.

People scratch their heads when I tell them that I prefer the weather in San Francisco to Chicago because of the summers -- not because of the winters.

We'll see who is scratching their heads when global warming has everyone wearing SPF 10,000 sunscreen (designed for when the sun goes supernova) and I'm chilling in my backyard in July with a Juve warm-up on.

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Yea, that is true.

Cali is just always temperate.

Snowed here today, but didnt settle due to the ground already being wet.

Yes and no. You have a coastline that's 840 miles long in the state. Somewhere around Santa Barbara you have a break in two major ocean currents between north and south.

South of there is part of the Mexican temperature current, and beachfront property is highly desirable and people go into tepid waters. North of there, the currents come down from Alaska, beachfront property is less desirable, there's a lot of fog, and ocean temperatures are too cold to go in without a wet suit.
