War Room Lounge v146: Federal Goon used "Bludgeon"! But it's not that effective...

@Lead Lachlan Giles' halfguard anthology is on for 38 bucks right now. You can find discount codes online for 25.

Thanks but I already have it already with his half guard passing one. I do recommend it though if you haven’t already grabbed it. I didn’t really use shin to shin at all before seeing that series.

I grabbed it immediately. I love all of Lachlan's stuff, it tends to work really well for me. It's good that it starts with what to do when you're getting smashed in what is still technically half guard, because that comes up a lot for me. My coach taught us lockdown but that didn't really take for me. I didn't quite get the whip up and whip down, so hopefully this suits me better.

As a biracial pitcher who identifies as Black and was adopted by a single white mother when he was three weeks old, he holds a rare point of view shaped by his background and upbringing.

Ticks all the boxes.

@Andy Capp GG. The sacrifice wasn't 100% justified, but anytime you sac basically a full piece and the computer is saying +0.11 for the other guy, you've got pretty good chances. I am so surprised that e3 wasn't the best move though. That looked like it was crushing. I couldn't not play it.

Yea, I don’t like the the lockdown all around cause I don’t think most people do the whip part at all and it ends up being a stall. His half is solid through with the way he uses the outside leg. He makes it so he constantly has a frame and his foot is hooking around the back so he has some of a push pull motion with the frame intact.

Except the black part, i think

Bare knuckle against a dude who was older, bigger, and clearly physically stronger.

Money may have gotten to Nate, but you can't say he's not the real deal as far being tough and a born fighter.

Culturally, he's probably a lot blacker than you.

Looks like NATO allies Greece and Turkey were on the brink of war yesterday, with Merkel saving the peace for now.

Agree with all of that but aside from maybe having some grappling skill that guy couldn't fight worth a shit. My 4 year old daughter has thrown better punches.

Oh yeah, Nate had more skill in his pinky than that dude.

Not sure if anyone in the room really knew that before the fight started, though.

Lol right, it definitely doesn't take away from the fact that Nate has serious balls even as a kid.

I can't imagine how much money Trump and his backers are pouring into Facebook ads right now.

Welcome back, boss.

By the relief office, I'd seen my people.
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking,
Is this land made for you and me?"

People like to shit talk NATO and the EU but the strength of both systems as inherent peace projects is really shown by the fact that Turkey and Greece haven’t killed each other a thousand times over.

Not anymore at least.

Turkey is using their militias to brutally gang rape Kurdish female fighters and posting the pictures of their mutilated corpses as warnings to the women fighting. That they won't just be murdered if captured but US and Turkish sponsored rape is their punishment before having their throats slashed open.

They're shelling Kurdish bases in both Syria and Iraq as well. So... good for the Greeks I guess.

We really, really, really love fucking over the Kurds. Like it's an addiction.
