Why hasn't Naso weighed in on this yet?


Naso had to catch a plane home this morning.

I don't think it's bold, strong or a sign of resolute courage to celebrate someone's death.

"No qualms about making enemies" but in a slightly different way, brittain.

I don't care for garbage to "be nice" to my hero; I care for them to be respectful. But I guess I expect too much from the slime.

I've started a separate thread on the U.S. board in recognition that this isn't the appropriate place for American conservatives and liberals to debate her legacy in light of our own politics.

"In light of our own politics." I have no idea what that means. What you just said.

"Manchester United announced that they would not be honouring the former PM with a minute's silence prior to their match against rivals Manchester City at Old Trafford"

I was looking forward to it. Sad   Guess this isn't surprising though.

An Argentine player (Aguero) ended up scoring the winning goal. Heh.

Awesome.

And who is Aguero's father-in-law? England arch nemisis Diego "Hand of God" Maradona.
