Look, I wasn't trying to dismiss anything regarding Paul, it’s just that he seems to jump into every single thread where Paul is mentioned, though I suppose he’s entitled to his own take, which is fine, there's just a lot of talk about Paul lately.☕
I suppose we could go on forever talking about all of this... not even mentioning guys like Buljubašić and Antonijević... I'm just sitting here waiting for Buljo to show up and start causing trouble every other day as usual
Well, I guess that's just how these games go sometimes... nothing but run and gun basketball... everything seemed fine since we managed to put up 6 points ourselves, though our defense felt a little shaky at times... I don't really know, it is what it is... you can really feel the absence of Jokic and Markovic in matchups like this... especially on the left side... but there is no point in complaining, we just move on.👋
I guess Udovičić really lost his cool today and started acting completely unhinged? Not that I'm surprised, honestly... maybe he just couldn't help himself.
Man, this guy Hinić... he seems to think he actually has enough time to get settled before opening fire, but I guess the guys have been sitting in the zone this whole time anyway, maybe.
rapidbison42 said:Yeah, sure, let's just pin it all on the coach at Cloth Inc. I mean, did you actually watch how that last play went down? The ball was basically handed over to them seconds before the buzzer because nobody even wanted to touch it.
I don't think the issue is just some minor thing with the cloth, honestly. Our offensive plays have been completely brainless for a long time now, and I guess there isn't much else to say, but people who actually follow water polo know how things really work. It’s just the way it is. Not to get into listing all the other players who only get playing time because of their parents or who they're dating, but their time will come and then you'll see what I mean. Saying there's no hierarchy in our national team just seems pretty pointless to me.
rapidbison42 said:They basically threw the towel in during that last push. The only guy who actually showed some backbone went down, so it wasn't even much of an attack, just everyone else looking for someone else to take the hit instead.
I mean, I'm pretty sure if anyone could actually step up and hold their own, I’d be out there taking shots and showing I’ve got balls too, ☕
I mean, we’ve got this tiny little scrap of cloth we can just fold up however we want... honestly, the old man is already behind it... if we had just two or three more players and a solid five-man rotation... maybe, but American water polo has been circling the drain for years now, and it’s because the people running the clubs and the federation are totally incompetent... I guess nothing is ever going to change around here... every few years we might stumble into some success with the national team, sure, maybe Mexico will pull something off once in a while, but that's really about it.
