  1. In other news, Beer Sheva beat Inter 2-0 in Milan.... Perhaps the gavro wasn't playing with such a joke of a team
  2. http://www.kidsplaycolor.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Drawing-Felix-the-Cat-Coloring-Pages.jpg
  3. Simera milaei i kardia tou prwtathliti
  4. By the way, anyone who has watched or is watching the TV series Narcos... the similarities between Escobar and Marinakis are UNCANNY... It's a great series for anyone interested... HIGHLY recommended
  5. Soooo.... supposedly Marinakis has major influence with big political figures and will shake off his sentence with nothing more than a slap on the wrist..... Gotta love Greece....
  6. Marucs preforms the way he does b/c is playing against duds week in/week out... sometimes he gets lucky and showcases brilliance however he often goes missing when he faces stronger competition (at PAO and NT) Giroud plays against the worlds best week in/week out... if he played in Greece he would absolutely TEAR the league apart 20-30 goals a season EASILY
  7. Been listening to sport-fm as I'm finishing up charts at work... perhaps I missed something along the way as I'm trying to multi-task 3-4 different things but seems like this may take even 1-2 years till till fully gets dealt with there are also MANY options/opportunities for appeals which could further delay this process... based on what some of these lawyers are predicting, there is a chance this case gets delayed quite a bit and unless there is OVERWHELMING evidence to associate the case w/ match fixing, etc. then the case may get thrown out Again, I"m doing 3-4 things at once so I might have missed something... can someone confirm?
  8. The scripts have been released.... This spells massive trouble for all involved I can't see Gavro getting out of this one.... If there is a just world, then they will be relegated to G' ethniki and banned from Euro competition for 5 years Atromito/Levadiako/Veria may follow suit This is HUGE
  9. Bouxesa is getting locked up but what kind of fall out is expected??
  10. Lua Lua is making a comeback to play for Veria!!! Always liked this guy! Would love him to start with his "toumbes" if he scores on Sunday against the gavroi.. hahaha
  11. It's official.... Lambrou to Hrakli..... Hahahaha.... thought he was the second coming of Cristiano but he's nothing more than the replacement to Epalle
  12. That info was from GWF while it was still around
  13. Simao spent 2 years in the "academy" and therefore can be registered as a youth player
  14. Chivas must be the dumbest team in the world.... Paid 16 million for PULIDO..... Gavro makes 6 million.... WOW...... Unbelievable amount for a guy who was a peripheral player and didn't really make any of an impact on any stage.... With all the sales of their players, you would think they would actually splurge on some quality signings... they are mainly getting written off by a lot of players Just goes to show you the power of a good coach can do... Stramma must be the "player whisperer"
  15. Rumor has it the gavroi are getting 16 million for Pulido from Chivas...... I don't know how the F*** they do it.... the guy has limited playing time with them... padded his record by scoring the 4th and 5th goal of games that were finished and didn't get featured in any major European competitions... One way or another they manage to sneak out these amazing deals... I have no idea how.... Not to mention Chivas are IDIOTS for paying that much for an AVERAGE player... did he even feature in the Mexican side during Copa America? 16 million for PULIDO..... wow.... just wow.....
  16. Cocksta.. I saw what he wrote... I have thick skin, no need to censor him... let him post whatever he wants.... at the end of the day he's the one who is made to look like a fool
  17. Let him speak Cocksta... no need to censor idiots who are continually made to look like fools day-in-day-out... its' a rather amusing part of my day... best part today is that i'm no longer "Greek" and he's more Greek than all of us.... Bravo ELLINARA!!! Anyway... the gavro is GETTING SCHOOLED at home... Kapino has kept them alive the entire game... we let a great player go.....
  18. Yes... please go live in China where civil rights are taken away at the blink of an eye, where a government restricts what you can watch/read/access, where the birth of little baby girls is looked down upon, where pollution levels in major cities is a "regular thing", a place where infectious disease outbreaks occur on the regular because of poor hygiene and cleaning practices in marketplaces, where minorities are racially discriminated against on a daily basis and are held on a lower class as an overall society... the list goes on and on.... You really have no idea what you are talking about as your main reason for not living there is the "chinese food" makes you sick............Again... arguments of a 12 year old... or an extremely ignorant adult In regards to America, I do believe America is a great place to live. There are problems in America (as in every country in the world) but most Americans are very fortunate compared to the rest of the world... the AVERAGE American has all the ammenities and luxuries that most people on this earth crave for In regards to your particular "concerns": 1) Healthcare Being in the healthcare field, I can spout on for days about this topic, but to be short. Overall, health care is pretty good in the US. This includes everyone from the VERY RICH to the VERY POOR. Despite what is written in the media or popular belief, everyone has the RIGHT to healthcare... from the citizen who has lived here for 100 years to the undocumented person who just got across the border... EVERYONE gets the care they need... If you are undocumented, follow up care can be a bit difficult as most of the outpatient medicine is insurance based, however I usually tell my patients to reach out to "teaching clinics" which are staffed by experienced physicians and training doctors (residents) or if their condition worsens then they should just go to the emergency room The major problem with healthcare in America is cost. B/c we have the most advanced medical technology, doctors order extremely expensive tests w/o clear indications for these tests and thus this drives up medical costs. There are currently grass-roots movements to help educate medical professionals in helping curb unncessary tests. I am currently heading an initiative at Johns Hopkins to help educate physicians on judicial use of antibiotics, for instance 2) Violence There is more violence in USA than most countries in Europe but I strongly believe this is also associated w/ the fact that a typical citizen can go out and buy a gun w/o any extensive research on the purchaser. This is a debate point in the election this coming year and hopefully some regulations go down on who is able to possess a firearm However, MOST violence is centered around gangs and poor inner city neighborhoods (drug hubs). I currently live in Baltimore which is considered one America's most dangerous cities, however I still find it relatively safe. One has to be cognizant of their surroundings and you'll be fine 3) Poverty The median American household makes 55,000 a year... The median Greek household makes 12,000... The poverty line for the US is around 12,000, however once you meet that level, you recieve a ton of support from the government on the state and local level which includes (help w/ provisions, free healthcare, subsidized housing... etc.) Greece has support for the less fortunate but is not as extensive.. Additionally, to throw some more STATS your way... The unemployment rate in US is somewhere 5-6% where in Greece its 35-40% (even higher 50-60% in younger people under 35) So there you go.... takes notes.. b/c THATS how you construct arguments....
