Dallas Burn, TB Mutiny, KC Wizards, MetroStars. These are American team names. We don’t need 100 FCs, SCs, United. Real Salt Lake is of course the grossest one. A pathetic attempt to make Madrid notice you.
My braindead take is that all the MLS teams rebranding did a significant amount of damage to soccer in the US. We like our teams to have silly names with ties to the city and silly logos.
Look man, I’m as disappointed as anyone but if Gregg was coaching this team we would’ve beat Paraguay 1-0 or tied, tied Australia 0-0, and then lost to Turkey 3-1.
Offsides is a black & white rule. If any part of the attacker is past the defender its offside. You might not like it but that’s what it is. Just like if you step out of bounds in football you’re out of bounds.
Fletcher: I think that play was pretty creative but didn’t work out in the end.
Hargreaves: yeah Fletch it was dogshit. Total trash. Should all be executed I think.
Hey @Delta if you’re going to be the most expensive airline want to use some of that cash to get a second gate at ILM so every incoming flight doesn’t have to sit waiting with no AC?
People who never played don’t understand getting wrong footed. The physics don’t let you react. Looks terrible but if you cheat one way, see the ball late (thanks to Argentina wall blocking his view), you have no shot
Requesting a witch doctor curse on Mexico because of the lady in the Mexico jersey who held up the concession stand yesterday and made me miss both England goals
@MaseDenver I only ask that they stop the clock for the “hydration breaks”. No reason to keep it running when there’s a set time to stop. The rest of it is what it is.
Poch: “did you see the bum ass lineup I threw out there? Started Weston just to not completely have the B team out there. Won the group. We’re on to Bosnia.”
🇺🇸 Mauricio Pochettino doesn't want to talk about momentum after a loss:
"I'm happy. Maybe I'm not showing because your questions are a little bit weird.
"I'm confused, maybe the vibes is like we go home tonight and Türkiye stays (in the World Cup), no?”
When my wife and I were on our honeymoon we did a wine tasting with some Dutch guys. They told us that they had 3 weeks paid vacation and that was the MINIMUM and most places gave more. Their jaws dropped when we told them we only got 10 days.
Watching the World Cup has me asking questions. Do Europeans get issued 8 weeks of vacation, unlimited airline miles, and a trust fund at birth? Because every match I turn on there are 40,000 fans following their team to a different state or country on a Tuesday afternoon while Americans are hiding in a work bathroom checking scores.
