American table manners are fucking wild. You see actual celebs now doing the "pin this steak to the table with a fork held vertically in a closed fist while I saw at it maniacally" thing these days. They're fucking pigs. HOWEVER. You can also see this over here now too if you keep your eye out for it. I hope all of the Toontastic members' no doubt HORRIBLE children at least have decent table manners. I already know some of the poor cunts will be standing up to wipe their arses for the rest of their lives though, so who knows.

Unreliable memory. Firstly I thought it was sons and daughters that that happened on, secondly I thought the lad nicked the hat, not his bitch sister pulling it down over his head. Sons and Daughters was a lot less interesting. But what a tune.

Typical Americans, so uncouth.

I beg your fucking pardon? You shut your fucking trash mouth.

"Stop being a flaming bunyip, yeah?"

Aye But it's closed for 6 days. Just seems pointless.

Food is off the table apparently but we'll soon find out.

Xg is a pointless statistic for individual games, it’s meant for long term analysis of a team but is supposed to be used alongside other stats. There are various Xg models and they can all result in different outcomes but only by small margins. It also has inherent limitations like different skill levels, luck (good and bad) and the dynamic nature of the game. In short both sides of the argument should really stop going on about it being fucking useless/the best thing in the world.

Closer each day.... Home and Away

Nah, we can't both be.

It's the Club World Cup thing, right?

The chance isn't harder. The chance is the same. It's the executor of the chance that's different. You can tac on explanations why that chance wasn't taken and include pressure or lack of ability, but the chance is what the xG model is reporting. The model isn't there to explain why the chance was or wasn't taken. It's there to say that team A created more good opportunities to score than team B, but they didn't spend money on a striker so they're out of the Champions League. Player A has fuck all assists but has been creating really good chances for his team to score from, it's just that his teammates are useless. Player B is scoring more goals than you'd expect given the chances that come to him, if he's good he'll keep doing it, if he's just been lucky it'll regress to the mean. Team C has conceded the fewest goals so far, but that's due to their 'keeper pulling off world class saves, and profligacy from their opponents Not sure if they clock the speed of the pass (it's definitely doable and I'd argue that that's valuable information). They definitely record which foot (stronger or weaker) it comes to. Quick google and yes, they do consider the speed of the pass.

I see your Sullivans and raise you Neighbours

Aye, on mumsnet

Shouldn't this be in the 'General Housewives' thread?

Hang on. You mean to tell me that daughter isn't pronounced dafter? No wonder the bairn hates me. Also had no clue it was pronounced law-ter. I've been a proper lawing stock for years because of this.

An xRh of only 0.42 for that I'd reckon?
