I'm unaware of any issues in the strait since the 80s when US backed Iraq and Iran were at war.

Iran generally used selective seizures, harassment, threats, and military demonstrations rather than attempting to stop all traffic. There have been plenty of issues in the strait, but not complete closures. As recently as 2019,Commercial tankers were attacked with mines and explosives near Fujairah and in the Gulf of Oman. There have been repeated serious incidents—including tanker seizures, drone confrontations and near-firefights since then. I'm not making a comment on the conflict, as there is much I don't know, but there have certainly been issues.

I'm very impressed with Iraola's adjustments this game. Putting Araujo as RB was a game changer for us, and the entire attack looked good as well. We have tougher tests coming up, but we have reasons to be optimistic.

I completely agree. RB is a huge hole for us right now. I'm extremely disappointed that we didn't secure a RB, but maybe that can be solved in January along with a defensive minded CM. I'm not a huge Kerkez fan, but hopefully Iraola can unlock him. While I'm disappointed, I'm still optimistic because I feel we are in better shape than last season.

I stayed at Casa de Jaguar last year and loved it. It was much cheaper to book through the hotel's website than on Booking or a similar site. It is right on Playa Norte.

I can't believe we are back in this.

He probably can’t get one. I doubt you are supposed to wear hats after that. He basically has to wear a hat at this point.

Nah. You can wear one after 10 days. Take it from someone who went to Istanbul for a hair transplant :lol:

In La Fortuna, eat at Jalapas. It"s a little ways out of town, but worth the drive. I loved soda Viquez for a cheap lunch

Great game by Konate! We had a shaky start, but a much better 2nd half.

I really like Purgatory, and Durango is a great town. It is one of my favorite places to ski.

I would go to FIFA.com and enter the random selection draw starting 12/11. I was selected for the early draw, but I had to buy tickets not knowing who I would be watching. Still, I picked up knockout round tickets for $180 each, so definitely try it.

Isak doesn't fit our team. Donate may be talented, but he's costing us matches. We need a defender bad.
