    What? Completely different songs but both great. I went to both nights when they played in Atlanta back in October ---- so great. There were only a few songs they played both nights and those you mention were two of them. Range Life, Stereo, Type Slowly as well. And when they ended the second night with Fillmore Jive ...... freakin amazing.

    Yeah, saw that going around yesterday. For me it doesn't pass the smell test because if it was just a dust up with England, why wouldn't he have gone to Dubai with the rest of the squad. And then searching through looking for more info, one of course runs into all the other trashy and more lurid rumors. I just hope he's okay and is hopefully ready to go on Boxing Day.

    In addition, why would England’s tweet saying White had left the team include a request to respect his privacy, if he had been dismissed, and why would Saka say family comes first when talking about both White and Sterling’s departures.

    I haven’t looked at or tried to figure out the chord progression of each song, nor have I ever listened to them back to back, but whenever I hear one it feels to me like I could map it on to the other pretty easily.

    But yes, both are great.

    Holy shit. It’s hard to believe there wasn’t foul play involved…but I hope so.

    I have no idea what you're trying to say. But I also have no reason to believe some conspiracy theory.

    Reports say that he collapsed suddenly and couldn't be revived. Sounds a bit like a possible heart attack to me. And even with his recent comments about being sick and having some sort of upper respiratory problem, I could imagine that secondary illness putting more stress on a suspect heart.

    I've seen one article so far (WSJ?) that mentioned cardiac arrest. Hopefully they'll be able to publish something fairly definitive within a day or so?

    Anyway, even if you didn't love Grant Wahl, his style of speaking or his writing... this. is. just. sad.

    I could’ve worded it better, but all I meant is that I hope it isn’t anything more than it appears to be on the surface, as sad and tragic as it is.

    I’ve seen third parties weigh in on Jesus’s likely recovery time, but now that it’s been a few days since his surgery have there been any official statements from Arsenal about what they expect? I.e. 3 months or less or more??

    Only that it's too soon to give a time table.

    Every source on Earth has stated "up to 3 months", I don't expect the club to say anything further.

    If they went in and cleaned out some meniscus tearing, he'll be cleared to start jogging in a little over a month; lateral movement training another week or two after that. Unfortunately, I speak from recent experience.

    Was it part of the agreement for these Dubai friendlies that they have a penalty shootout after the match? I didn't realize they did this for the Lyon game as well. Seems strange to have PKs when you have a winning side after regulation.

    Yes I saw somewhere all games would have them and it gives you an extra point if you win to supposedly eliminate ties.

    Did they ask about Tonali's availability while they were there?
