  1. Fogerty's still touring (not during these Covid times obviously). Plays a bunch of songs from CCR along with his own.
  2. The thing is back in the CM days the positional ratings were 0, 1 and 2. 2 meant natural, 1 was already much worse and 0 was like playing Peter Crouch at right back. Nowadays you get 0 to 20 ratings and even if you have a 0 on it still doesn't affect as much as it used to which is definitely good. Regardless, players played out of position regardless of their skills should feel the difference (just not as much as they did back in the CM days). It's just a matter of knowing where you should be in any given game situation if you're playing a certain position. I had to play out of position a few times back in the day and I always felt there was too much happening I wasn't used to. I hated it. Granted, I wasn't an example of versatility but still...
  3. 6 meh. Getting worse. I got Festa wrong and I just knew it wasn't that one. I should have changed my mind but for some reason I felt it would be worse if I changed it from right to wrong. I'd rather just get it wrong with my original answer... which I did.
  4. I believe training in Spain won't be back on the 11th. People will be able to workout on their own May 4th. Team practices will start when all the players are tested (obviously those with the virus won't be allowed yet) and teams weren't granted all the tests yet. The 11th was given as a tentative date but it's possible/probable it'll take longer. Nothing is certain yet.
  5. 2020 may not be the Bastia so far but I'm sure it will improve.. Ok.That was terrible. I'm sorry if it Angers anyone.
  6. The easiest one for me so far. I got 8/10. I think I've been getting 4, 5 or 6 right per quiz so this was definitely an improvement.
  7. The Woodstock era, revered by many is just not for me.
  8. So, how much did Barcelona pay for those 3 matches Braithwaite played?
  9. I got the 4 rows but only got reasons for 2 of them since I paired the last 8 in the only way that made sense to me but I don't really know the answer.
  10. Same, 9/10. Missed number 9, and to be fair, I had a feeling the answer would be the one it turned out to be, but didn't want to risk it.
  11. Also, pretty sure Trevor Sinclair clashes with 2 or 3 players on your team.
  12. I understand it's not for everyone but I love toots and the maytals. A rare event in the 60s for me!
  13. I regret to inform you your central midfield partnership played for Porto.
  14. The Slackers also cover A Minha menina. Vic Ruggiero said he didn't know a word of Portuguese when he heard the song for the first time but that was still the first album he really loved in his life.
  15. I'm playing with sweeper, 2 center backs, offensive minded wing backs, deep lying playmaker at DMC, two MCs, AM and striker. Mostly outdated concepts but it's going great so far.
  16. That Velvet Underground album is my personal choice out of everything you've posted so far in the whole decade.
  17. Why didn't they just call it strikers? If they did, they could always say they took other factors into account. Why call it top goalscorers if that's something you can actually measure? One can argue that the top goal scorers are the ones who... score... the most... goals. If that's the case how can Andy Cole be so low? I do understand they may consider number of goals scored in a single season for those with fewer EPL seasons but still... What about Andy Cole being lower than Drogba in the list, then? Better total and better average and yet is 10th while Drogba is 6th?
  18. Sorry for nitpicking but it's Mendes. Also I ended up liking that song because of the 1998 Nike airport commercial with the Brazilian national team. I loved that commercial back then. I know it has nothing to do with music but yeah. My mind travels to that time period whenever I hear that song (granted, not too often) and I'm happy for a bit, so... thumbs up! One last thing, I don't think you have linked the right song there.
  19. I personally like the selection. Thing is I've already watched all of those. There are websites where you can find more stuff if you dig in but the League pass has better vid quality.

  21. NBA league pass is free until April 22nd if anyone is interested. I have the paid version anyway and it's pretty cool. If anyone feels like (re)watching any game from the 2019/20 season or any other from their "classic" game collection there you have it.
  22. Out of curiosity, don't you all send them home when that happens? Every single time it happened to me, I just sent whoever it was home. He could be Messi for all I care.
  23. Apparently Ronaldinho is arrested in Paraguay for using a fake passport or something like that and scored 5 goals and assisted 6 of his team 11 goals (they won 11-2) in today's prison tournament fixture. He's an outside shot for 2020 Balon d'or, all things considered.
