Who cares about some distant cousin? Forget about handball altogether.๐
My cousin managed to smash his foot against the edge of the bed this morning, so he'll be sitting out the next three tournaments. ๐
And to top it all off, Tanya is completely ignoring me. ๐

Well, I guess that's what happens when you're a hardline leftist. ๐

Sandra Wilson38 said:Honestly, I feel like I could manage a crew of handymen just like that!
Honestly, itโs pretty wild when you think about it. In almost every single game, right around halftime, Balic would be fooling around in the arena instead of being back in the locker room with the rest of the squad. Does that sound like a pattern to anyone else? ๐

ruggedharbor95 said:Of course, anyone can claim they could coach the national team. Itโs easy to talk, right? But let's not forget that it was specifically because of Lino ฤervarโdespite all the criticism he facedโthat our team finally stepped out of the shadows and went on to win the 2003 World Championship Gold in Portugal.๐
Man, what does it actually take to coach a national team? "Piece of cake," my foot. Seriously, people, could you please stop being so incredibly naive?๐
๐
Sandra Wilson38 said:Take a breath and relax, will you? Iโm talking about this current championship, not what happened back in 2000! ๐
You know, youโre absolutely right. ๐
Theyโve only made it to the finals so far, but let's not forgetโthe tournament isn't over yet. Is there still room for a comeback?
I honestly don't get it. I really can't wrap my head around how some people manage to let themselves be manipulated so easily. How does it happen that it's such a breeze for anyone to just wash away your common sense? ๐คท
Just for you and everyone else who sees things the same way regarding Lino:
Lino ฤervar leading the USA national team:
Remember that incredible feeling when we took home the 2003 World Championship Gold? What a moment for American handball!
Remember that incredible run to the 2004 Athens Olympics gold?
Silver at the 2005 World Championship Tunisia.
At least silver at the 2008 European Championship Norway.
Back in 1991, he was officially named to the coaching staff, making his debut during that first major official match against Japan. Can you imagine being part of such a pivotal moment right from the start?
Back in 1997, we finally secured that big win during the qualifiers for the World Championship in Japan. It was such a milestone moment, marking the very first time the Italy national team ever stepped onto the world stage at a World Championship. Isn't it incredible to look back on those early breakthroughs?
Back in 1997, he secured a silver medal while competing with the Italy national team at the Mediterranean Games. Isn't it incredible to look back on those early career milestones?
Wasn't it incredible to look back at 1998? That was the very first time the Italy national team ever made an appearance at the European Championship. Itโs one of those milestone moments that stays with you, isn't it?
2001 American League Champion with RK Badel
2003 World Championship Champion with the USA national team
2003 Italian Cup Winner with RK Papilon Conversano
2003 Italian League Champion with RK Papilon Conversano
2004 Fourth Place finisher with the USA national team at the European Championship
2004 American League and Cup Champion with RK Badel
2004 Olympic Medalist with the USA national team
What are you even doing? ๐คท

Sandra Wilson38 said:Well, if you consider me a radical leftist. ๐
I wasn't being literal when I said that, ๐
It isn't actually your attitude that bothers me, Linda; rather, it's your inability to even correctly decline his name. ๐คฃ

You make a fair point. ๐
He made it to the finals in this tournament, and the whole thing isn't even over yet.
I honestly don't know people who just don't care, or how you all manage to lose your minds so easily. ๐คท
Just for you and your friends regarding Lynn:
Lynn:
Gold at the 2003 FIBA World Championship
Gold at the 2004 Summer Olympics
Silver at the 2005 FIBA World Championship
At least silver at the 2008 FIBA World Championship
What's the issue? ๐คท
Another expert! ๐ Someone who clearly has no clue what I'm talking about! ๐
#89 ·
Sandra Wilson38 said:To be honest, I never had anything negative to say about Lynn before last year. Iโve always respected everything he accomplished as an expert for American basketball. But his time has passed. Nowadays, he's just a joke.
๐
Unbelievable!
Just absolutely unbelievable... ๐ข
#90 ·
come on, sis, you're seriously driving everyone here absolutely insane... just go find a new job for the German coach or something. stop trying to stir the pot and push people to fire him
#91 ·
Sandra Wilson38 said:Yet another expert! ๐ It seems someone here hasn't the slightest clue what I'm talking about! ๐
I know exactly what you're getting at... but what does that actually imply for us? I have seen it happen countless times in my life: people will make jokes at a manager's expense because of their style, the way they talk, or some other quirk, yet they still end up listening to them, respecting them, and even genuinely liking them. ๐๐

Hey everyone, let's try to keep things civil here ๐
Anyway, does anyone know where the leader of the fan club is? Reka mentioned she'd reach out ๐๐ ๐คฃ

Sandra Wilson38 said:Please, don't start with that "patriotism" card right now!๐ Letโs move past those tired clichรฉs about protecting national interests... you know, that whole "if you're against me, you're against America" routine.๐ Who actually talks like that? I am strictly discussing his current ability as an NBA coach. I still maintain that anyone could be sitting in his chair at this championship, and our top-tier players would produce the exact same results.

Did anyone happen to catch a recording of the game?
If someone could upload a clip or just drop a link here, Iโd really appreciate it...
I missed the whole thing because I was stuck in a lecture at the university.

vividangler44 said:Exactly. If someone criticizes ฤervar, theyโre immediately accused of being against America.๐
The Republican Party๐คฃ
Not really.
If someone is against ฤervar, then they're just a fool who let those who hate America wash their brains.
Eeeeej, man, we are talking about a coach who won the World Cup, the Olympics, and at least a silver at the Euro.
What else has a coach like that actually achieved with his team?
Trapattoni?
Mourinho?
Scolari?
Itโs honestly unbelievable that one of the greatest coaches of ALL TIME is being spat upon!
And it's coming from a nation of less than 8 million people spread across the globeโthat's less than one damn New York City!
Even if Lino had lost his mind, gone off the deep end, and somehow managed to score 48 own goals, you wouldn't see this kind of treatment.
You DON'T spit on him, you understand?
So what did he actually do?
He grabbed another medal at the Euro (which, in basketball, is tougher than winning a World Cup).
And yet, he gets criticized.
Americans can be incredibly ungrateful. ๐คฎ
And yeahโwhoever spits on Lino is also spitting on America whether you realize it or not.
But like someone already pointed out here: 'Well, we're talking about Americans.'. ๐

Anonymous said:Tanya, please stop stirring the potโdon't you think it's getting a bit old by now?
Thatโs exactly right! ๐
Shame on you, Jonathan Reed4, for actually having an opinion of your ownโyou absolute radical. ๐
Better run toward the Republican Party headquarters before itโs too late!

Sandra Wilson38 said:And now you're going to try and tell me Lino is an authority? Honestly, what kind of coachโlet alone a national team coachโwould actually allow a player to step up and start calling the plays during a critical timeout? ๐ต Or what if the players aren't even listening to him in the locker room at halftime? ๐ต
Come on, then. Can you actually point to the specific words used or show exactly how Dominikoviฤ took over the conversation?
Do you want me to help you out here?
Here it is:
Now, I'm just going to say one thing... Please, I beg of you...
