I'm still pretty ashamed of the fact that Nascar beats the MLS and even the NHL. America is dumb

An additional argument against a moving drop in that situation is that spread out marines are much easier to lift and pick off, as opposed to marines in a group.
So yeah, logically the casters were correct and LR was being LR

Hmm. There is actually a small but fairly dedicated bunch of people that follow the MLS (major league soccer) but probably still behind those.
From what I've seen soccer is on the rise in the US with the MLS growing in viewership and ticket sales strongly. I think that was just one article I read though.

LR is always LR. It's the blessing and the curse of the LR. Although it's worth noting that the OP specifically says this isn't a LR thread

stim marines bro you drop them on the move, and hmmm the stimmed marines also move? who would ahve thought they can move too?
btw moving does make a difference, cause in theory u can split your medivacs, one goes north, your 2nd medivac goes south for example
then this is guarenteed more lasting time for your medivacs than if u just stood in place
in other words, u still get more marines unloaded if u move your medivacs (example, split your medivacs going in different directions, more area to cover, phoenix will get less shots on them)
TB ask Ryung later if he should have kept his medivacs moving and did move drop (like he actually did) or should he have stood stationary and dropped his marines (like the casters said he should have)
see what he has to say

Grudgematch between TB and stuchiu. Time to see how good TB's 10 pool defense is.

Why must you lump together the opinions of one or a few people on an issue and decide that the entire LR is stupid? It's like if I decided all Starcraft 2 pros are whiny and immature because of avilo. It's bothersome D:
Also this is like the second time in a week you've been mad at the LR thread

Blame Avilo. And I'm not saying that to be a dick, but his games vs snakehips were LONG.

so the reason people don't like it is because people don't like it?
