He wasn’t found innocent and can thus be retried. He was released because the prosecution did not share all the info with the defense that they were legally required to do so. He was not found not guilty. In a legal sense, a mistrial was declared. The prosecution gets to decide if they want a retrial and I hope and believe that they will

I don’t like the additional teams but groups of three with 2 group games each was going to make collusion inevitable.

My 48 team WC system

Teams 1-16 (based off qualifying start with a bye.

Teams 17-48 play a single game do or die game

Winners of single elimination game are entered into groups with the 1-16 teams and then a typical WC schedule begins.

You’d get more teams in the WC and create 16 more knock out games without messing with the previous format after the do or die games. Also no 3rd place teams get into the knockout rounds

Rugs imo can never replicate the softness that quality carpeting with double thick padding has. My sons have likely avoided multiple concussions because I carpeted my basement playroom and great room. Hardwood is nice and my bedrooms, kitchen, dining area and hallways have it. Soft carpet in select rooms is nice as well.

I guess we’re having a misunderstanding of what each other is saying. I was implying that it wasn’t so simple as one sound being different but a complete or near complete change in pronunciations across a spectrum of sounds. Changing the way one pronounces a single sound, would not be sufficient to make a listener believe that they’re hearing a foreign accent.
