Lmao do Europeans literally just washemplae Europeans prefer to think that when a player is exceptional it's because of a sort of magical "je ne said quoi" quality that needn't be stated. For example, Europeans describe Lionel Messi in single statements. "Magical, ethereal, from another planet, I've never seen a goal like that and never will again", etc. What we don't like is this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tpg8C0JGCwQ Like I don't really need or want to know the exact distance in inches that he cleared the goal by nor the specific speed he accelerated at with the ball -_- Why open a thesaurus when you can explain how much better he is than everyone else? There's not really an order of magnitude when you start using those adjectives. Saying they will never see a goal like it again is just exaggerating for effect anyway. --- http://i.imgtc.com/pRZqu18C.gif http://i.imgtc.com/jccgiB1G.gif http://i.imgtc.com/WEkU41Yb.gif http://i.imgtc.com/dBcIyU2x.gif <cite>KainWind posted [p:877252865] in Do America...
