What is probably the smartest transfer in Club football of recent times?
Daniel Sturridge : Chelsea to Liverpool £ 12 million It was largely believed that Daniel Sturridge was a very selfish player and had a lot of attitude problems on and off the pitch! His time at Manchester City and Chelsea clearly indicated that. But the truth was that he never got a chance to showcase his potential.But Brendan Rodgers decided to take a leap of faith and boy, he got rewarded. Sturridge has scored 32 goals and 8 assists in 40 appearances for Liverpool. Sturridge has the second best goals scored per minute ratio among all the strikers in the top five leagues in Europe this season. Yes even better than Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic and Suarez. He has been selflessly putting shifts on either wings as well as leading the line for Liverpool depending on the formation used by the Liverpool gaffer.A certain manager from Manchester claimed that £12 million for Sturridge was a gamble. It certainly does not look like that anymore. Sturridge has silenced his critics and is being touted as England's best hope for qualifying to the knock out stages ahead of the highest paid footballer in England.To put things into perspective, Sturridge has scored more goals than all three of Chelsea's strikers combined.EDIT: Inspite of the injuries he has had in the last year or so, he still has a better goals to game ratio than any striker in Liverpool history and so I reckon he is still a bargain. Hopefully he can stay fit and fulfil his potential
How do I know if someone has placed a nail under my tire deliberately?
Unless you've got VERY good security footage of your car, you'll never know if someone deliberately put a nail in your tire.It's not all bad news, however. Generally speaking, it's kind of hard to jam a nail through a car tire with just your bare hands. That means a potential douchbag needs to either:Jam the nail into the sidewall of your tires. Again, not easy with your hands, which means they either need to take the time to hammer it in (which lengthens the possibility of getting caught), or…Prop the nail upside-down next to your tires so the weight of the car does the nasty deed for them. This is usually the preferred method of sabotage as it's quicker and thus they have less possibility of getting caught.So how can you avoid this? Much like identifying a Bangkok lady-boy, you need to look for the obvious. Check BOTH sides of EACH of your four tires for nails BEFORE moving the car. Yes this will take an extra 30-seconds, but it's well worth your time….particularly if some numb-nuts is out to sully your ride.If you park on asphalt, this is easy. If you park on gravel, this takes a few seconds longer. Now do yourself a favor of you do park on gravel. After you park, sweep a 3-inch section on BOTH sides of each tire so you can more easily check for nails before you leave next time. Yes it sucks, but it beats buying new tires.If you do this and your still getting nails in your tires, your probably just unlucky, or karma has taken a particular shining to you.
Is Bayern Munich hampering the Bundesliga by constantly buying top players from rival teams?
Absolutely. Bayern are giving other German teams no chance of competing with them because of this.Just look at Bayern’s transfer business the past few years. They raided Borussia Dortmund and took their best players in Lewandowski, Hummels, and Gotze. Reus would be there too if not for the fact he is loyal to the Dortmund organization.In addition to Dortmund, they raided Stuttgart and brought in Joshua Kimmich and Sven Ulreich. This year, they are taking Niklas Sule and Sebastien Rudy from a very promising Hoffenheim team!Bayern dominate the Bundesliga (Or Bayernliga whatever you want to call it) because while they do bring in great talent from around the world, a lot of their transfer business involves weakening their competition in the league by taking the best players from other teams. By comparison, you don’t see United or Chelsea or anyone in the BPL constantly taking the best players from other teams in the league ( at least in today’s day and age).

Why is it so expensive to live in San Diego?
SD was pretty much known for years as the sleepy not so little town south of LA. Thank you Camp Pendleton for this for if it wasn’t for this the entire coastal strip would have been developed long ago. Some time ago maybe close to 30 years, SD was awarded as “America’s finest city” which fueled the fire of arrogance. I will admit having lived in LA for a number of years I really enjoyed SD when I moved there and spent the next 15 years living their. My biggest complaint was the corruption within SD city government from the Mayors on down as well as the developers’ way of shaving off hills and planting communities all over with very little attention to Green spaces roads or even schools and were allowed to keep doing this in many cases with the aid of Mello Roos, an unbelievable rip off of the communities paying those fees. Well back to your question. Employers felt that it was so great to live there that they could get people to move there and pay them less, meanwhile house prices keep going up. So did utilities. SDG&E had among the highest rates in the country and somehow the PUC kept granting them increase. From what I can see salaries are still depressed for a major metropolitan area compare to other Calif areas. LA is a much better bargain but then again you have to deal with LA. I feel very claustrophobic when I am in SD. Just my personal preference. I have relatives living there and love it and likely will never move. If you love the area and can make a good living SD offers different types of lifestyles. I will say one thing if you like Mexican food (Calif style) you are in the right place. I have not found better in CA although I don’t want to sell LA short as they have some outstanding establishments.
