Axiomatic:

Methinks most people are interested in the “European Spring” only. The “European Super League” starts with the knockout stage. It’s the time when the deeply-indebted billionaires get together for their annual poker game.

There are too many worthless, even humiliating matches, during the group phase. I am referring here to the Champions League exclusively. The other two leagues don’t deserve much attention. And they rumor, Frau UEFA wants to keep creating more European football leagues! Probably to accommodate all teams in all 10 football leagues of England!

Cuckoo! Cuckoo! See who’s spamming the Usenet, cuckoos? It’s them newsreaders, cuckoos. ‘Cuz them newsreaders do NOT impose the reCAPTCHA hurdle, that’s why! And thusly valuable groups have been murdered, such as the C language programming and the neural networking AI group. Fraid, soccer is next. You might be able to save this group just by posting, including Doktor’s bullshit…
