Overrated. ..avocados, no taste, horrible texture.
underrated......sprouts, only popular once a year, and even then people complain.

 I love avocado. They are particularly good with a curry.   You slice them and put them on the plate as a side.  That's how they eat them in the West Indies.  I love Caribbean food too.

Overrated - modern exam results.

Soon signing your name correctly will get you an A+++++ grade A level.

Underrated - Mark Selby one of the true all greats who is truly disliked by some (mainly by O' Sullivan fanboys) for no reason at all.

 Exam results have been higher this year than normal.

Maybe students have been marked up a bit, but tbh they have had a bloody horrible time of it over the last 18 months, so they deserve a bit of slack.

Students have missed out on such a lot, personally I think the majority seem to have coped brilliantly.

Call me an old cynic Syl (and you will lol) but passes have been breaking records year on year for decades - so either the kids were/are a load of ultra-geniuses (which I see no evidence off) or the exams have been getting much easier.

Great article (from 2012) on why Sonny Liston is the most underrated heavyweight champion ever.

If people actually read beyond the press and Mafia fucking bullshit he was a good man especially with children.

Oh and he could fight like Hell, in his prime (never really had one he was probably born in 1919) a match for heavyweight who ever lived and even The Greatest Ali said that.

So did his best friend Joe Louis.

So did Big George.

Tragic really.

BLM spouts shit about 'racism' - when about 8 coppers ares trying to beat the shit out of you with truncheons for being black and you get arrested for assault for dumping one in a trash can headfirst.

That's racism.

I totally agree JD. Liston was a hard tough man. He wasn't bad imo. Great boxer. Yes Joe Louis, nicknamed the Brown bomber, was a brilliant boxer too.

Vastly overrated - John Wayne.

Fifth rate actor - a known on set bully, sexist, racist, homophobe coward who was the world's most famous draft dodger whilst playing preposterous superhero war roles.

Enjoy 'Green Berets' as a real documentary of Vietnam. lol

Underrated - Steve Buscemi (911 hero), Christopher Walken, Christopher Lloyd and John Lithgow - never a bad performance in any role in any genre among them.

I like Christopher Walken, but I do wonder what actually did happen that night??

Love this video though.
