Damn.

 

Damn mirrors my thoughts well.

 

Why would you drive to a bar?

 

Larin is a lucky guy. He could have died, or even worse, killed someone else. The dude was stopped while driving the wrong direction on a road at more than twice the legal limit in his bloodstream.

 

This is the truth. Whatever his punishment, it's light to what could have happened.

 

It could prevent him moving to another league if convicted, which he will be.

 

I'd love to see him in LA or NY..........Where else?

 

I have always said that he is made for LA....in every way.

Physically, mentally, attitude wise he fits the bill.

 

Cyle Larin should be forced to watch every cautionary documentary out there about the what-could-have-been career of Charlie Davies to scare him straight.

 

Well CJ Sapong missed 3 weeks while in MLS' Substance abuse program, and all of the charges against him were dropped a year or so later. I'd have to think that Larin will be in MLS' treatment program for at least a month.

Question: if convicted, would/could this prevent Larin from playing International games (travel restrictions) with Canada or OCSC?

*IMO if someone gets stopped for driving under the influence, they should get ZERO sympathy. It's on you if you get behind the wheel and endanger the lives of others. No excuse or valid reason for it.

 

I'd rather he meet with the families of people who were killed by drunk drivers and see what he could have done to someone else and their lives.

I have a close friend whose child was killed by a drunk driver. No words for the effect on the family and their lives.

If he wants to wrap his car around a tree and ruin his own life fine....but there is much worse out there.

 

I've never understood why people for whom the cost of a taxi is insignificant ever drive drunk.

 

"Huge" is a bit generous against RSL this season.

 

Or Miami if it ever got it's act together.

 

These four posts back-to-back without picking up the context switch in what @falvo quoted (the Ronaldo article) confused me for a bit

 

Because they're drunk.

 

People can rationalize/ see anything they want to....especially when impaired.

 

Hell, go to the US Boards and watch the same 6 or 7 posters try to rationalize JK....and they are presumably sober!

They have gone from "our talent sucks (even compared to Honduras and Panama you idiots) and JK is only doing what he can with garbage....to "BA isn't maximizing our talent and we should have gone toe to toe w Mexico in Azteca on 2 days rest, and making seven changes is no big deal."

No joke....the same exact posters have flipped the switch completely in about 6 months. That is impressive and rationalization/delusion on an impressive scale.

 

1. In what way would that be any more attractive to Ronaldo than LA?
2. Who christened Miami "the capital of the Latino-Caribbean world"? What are the criteria?

 

Miami's unofficial title is the Capital of Latin America. It's really the capital of rich Latin America. The amount of money that flows through Miami from Latin America is mind blowing.
