This would be for the film’s climactic scene, and surprised (unless it has) that Pulp’s “Hardcore” hasn’t been used in a noir film. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUMqXWaF4Ac Setting, post-war Hollywood. The drama, a drugs and sex-trafficking ring that’s led to the murder of young immigrants. Signs...

Everytime I hear “Turnpike Divides” by the post hardcore band Thursday I think there’s a ‘lone wolf’ scene of some kind from about 2:15 in when it slows down and then ramps up at the end: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8a96DKGtQiE I can even read it into the lyrics a bit… fella’s going to do somethin...

NFL has the perfect balance for superfans and casuals alike. Hardcores can discuss plays with mates between action and consult the big screen for replays. Casuals can catch a few seconds of action and go back to being social / drinking and eating. As an analyst on twitter said, RU doesn’t have an is...

Figured by use of ‘academics’, they weren’t experts in sport sci or brain research? Hot take though… I’d remove full tackles until 13.

I see the Progressive Rugby people have called this out as rhetoric with a lack of research, someone tagged one of the paper’s authors (I almost called it a ‘study’).

I've seen loads of Vietnam films, I'm going to be a door gunner in a chopper. With all the precision guided anti aircraft missiles available and the number of choppers shot down these days I'm not sure this is as appealing in 2024 as it was in 1967. https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=htt...

If Russia decides it wants to push westwards properly does that not mean they have decided they don't give much of a fudge about the nuclear deterrent and everyone is f**ked anyway? If they push west it won't be to Poland or Finland. They would get annihilated. More likely to link Kaliningrad to Be...

Does anyone know about the process for getting a trial with a PWR team? Like could a player contact the club and get a try out? I know an up-and-coming Canuck forward - who has an Irish passport - who'd like to give it a go. Has also played NZ provincial. She's under the impression players need to ...

Quick check-in with the Celtic Challenge, where there's been some good matches going on the last few weeks.

From around the start of June 1942 to the end of May 1943, the two RAF Squadrons who were the first to be equipped with Mosquito Mk.

When they got to 'defence makes attack more difficult', I thought "Okay, here we go..." and then nothing. It's been said here a few times... ban hands at the breakdown (or otherwise kill the jackal). One defender is allowed to slow down play - at least, if not get a turnover - so that the defence ca...

Here’s hoping for a score draw. Yeah, but not in the sense that the world becomes a charred ball of ash for everyone. If the world nuked itself, does someone have some kind of space-born recording device to show it? When the next ship of aliens rock up, would be nice to leave an answer to their "We...

"Successful" probably won't factor in here, but other Canadians who have a football background ... 7s player Adam Zaruba trained with the Philly Eagles in 2017/18, not sure if he even made a development/practice team though?

Agreed, cicero, and no waves of Brits/Irish will be going down for a whole tour. NZ weren't great at attendance during WXV when they had the best nations all playing locally.

Countries like Canada and Oz that have such an abundance of land and stupid housing prices need to pre plan and build new cities.

Some recent thoughts I've had on the housing situation, which could be total crap, but feel free to comment ... 1. Historically speaking, was the post-war boom to relatively recently a uniquely easy time to become a homeowner? (Will address the colonies in my next thought...) Even pre-war back to th...

The truth re purchases is somewhere in the middle here.

The border was porous in the north too.

Many have suggested that even the shaking of the head during tackles’ clear outs etc may contribute - I wonder if mountain biking, riding a horse etc may increase the risk? Shaking of the head making or receiving tackles is definitely something that causes mild concussion in my opinion and these ca...

They also clearly feel obliged to spread nominations around to be ‘nice’ when a truly ‘best XV’ Lions team would just be England.
