@JayyClears A world cup hosted at only college football stadiums would have been ridiculous. Honestly better venues, outside of not being indoors during summer heat for games like Dallas/Houston/Atlanta.

@htaberss @WRSX_WFC @StozUTB @NewtonJedi jokes on you - his first name was Edwin

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@JeauFCB @Ellis_ right lol - we have 100+ stadiums with more than 50k people just for college football alone. 60 to 70% of those hosting games each saturday. Yet something that happened in a neighborhood nowhere logically close to the English camp, and everyones panties are in a wad.

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@theunitedl63651 @_captainpulisic That's our issue - you haven't even seen the pitches used for the world cup yet. Complaints came from a game hosted and controlled by the english FA in a stadium that isn't hosting anything after the friendly and mad that we aren't going to provide great facilities?

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@USMNTBaldEagle They are just a bunch of crying toddlers. "its too hot", "the pitch isnt good" "there's no culture" "the stadium infrastructure is bad"
English playing in shacks disguised as bleachers in 95% of their stadiums that are worse than my HS i played at

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@WRSX_WFC @StozUTB @NewtonJedi better atmosphere than Kyle Field? hell im an aggie hater, but damn this is a stupid take.

here's a high school stadium ... maybe you'd like to argue about this one? Still better than your shacks that make up 98% of uk stadiums

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@Joshuad4045 @B_____W_ im a fan of football by what its called on both sides of the pond, but there's like 4 or 5 stadiums in the UK that are quality. There's history and such, but come on... you can't tell me there's not 20+ great facilities in the US per each "quality" one there?

@Odiaz0710 @youneshhamou_ Says the group that turns into absolute toddlers at the word soccer, and god forbid it gets above 30c for you crybabies

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@JLoweSnipes22 I took the bait and replied too many times, and now its just a bunch of brits crying like toddlers on my feed yapping it's too hot in the US.

@jordan65980785 @FarAwayFootball @adrianjones1975 @terribletiffy12 Congrats bud. You won your case. It's still called soccer here, and we have the world cup here, so its soccer for the next ~ 40 days. deal with it ;)

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@jordan65980785 @FarAwayFootball @adrianjones1975 @terribletiffy12 i dont care if its soccer or football, but we we're sure as hell not the ones that came up with the name and then used it as its normal sport title until roughly the 80's. The same time the NFL became one of the strongest brands, and football was the normal term here.

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@jordan65980785 @FarAwayFootball @adrianjones1975 @terribletiffy12 Who created the term, soccer?

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@jordan65980785 @FarAwayFootball @adrianjones1975 @terribletiffy12 maybe you shouldn't have called it soccer to begin with... blame the brits

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@DavidSuslenskiy @mer2475 Her simple mind would explode on a college football saturday in early september. What would she cry about first? The temps being over 32c, or the 100k people in a college town?

lol lack of infrastructure... they have to shut the city down when there's a game at wembley 🤣

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@BDTitan27 @mer2475 she's just mad that her country came up with the term soccer

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

@WhatTheForkAVFC nah - we're just tired of you toddlers complaining that its too hot, times aren't good, or that we like to drive cars/trucks to games. Brits are the most arrogant and biggest cry babies I've ever seen

@IcyVert Best 3 games to a playoff series… if any sport?

Hard to beat what’s taken place in this series as a neutral

This #hurricanes come back in the #stanleycup is legendary #nhl

[LifeOfASportsAddict @CFBFan21]

If I’ve learned anything heading into the World Cup, it’s that English fans turn into absolute toddlers talking about weather, pitches, stadiums, or anything to do with the USMNT #worldcup

It’s a shame what happened to what used to be a great group to talk about games with

@ESPNInsights Men played well. Optimism heading into Friday

Women played terribly. But good experience in next years host and have a chance to bounce back Tuesday
