@JuneVanBloem This is retarded

🚨🗣️New: Thierry Henry reacts to the USA vs Paraguay stoppage for TV commercials:

“I’ve spent my entire life in this beautiful game — as a player at the highest level, as a fan, and now as someone who analyses it every week — and what unfolded during that USA versus Paraguay match left me deeply frustrated. The fourth official standing there on the touchline, arm raised high, instructing the referee to hold the restart… not for any injury, not for tactical reasons, and not even primarily for player hydration in that scorching heat. No. It was because the broadcast team hadn’t finished airing all their commercials. That’s not football. That’s a television show pretending to be a World Cup match.

The beautiful game is being strangled by greed. Players are out there in the heat, ready to restart, momentum building like a storm about to break — and we pause everything so the sponsors can cash in. It’s like stopping a symphony mid-crescendo because the advertisers want their jingle heard. Football didn’t conquer the world by turning into American sports with endless timeouts and ad breaks. We had rhythm, flow, emotion that flowed like a river. Now? It’s dammed up for dollars.

This isn’t about hydration or player welfare anymore — it’s a slippery slope where the soul of the game is sold piece by piece. Fans deserve better. Players deserve better. The referee on that pitch looked like a puppet on strings controlled from some broadcast truck. Enough is enough. We need to protect what made this sport the greatest on Earth before it disappears completely.”

The World Cup should be football’s cathedral. Instead, we’re turning it into a shopping mall with a pitch in the middle.

And here’s the question nobody wants to answer: if the fourth official is waiting for commercials, then who is really running the game? FIFA? The referee? Or the broadcasters?

Because the moment football starts asking advertisers for permission before asking the players, you’ve crossed a line.

The World Cup is supposed to be the showcase of football. Not the showcase of who paid the most for airtime.”

🚨 VINI JR JUST TOLD FIFA: “WE’LL PAY THE FINE — BUT NOBODY FROM US IS DOING HALF-TIME INTERVIEWS.”

During Brazil’s World Cup match, Vinícius refused the mandatory tunnel interview.

Reporter: “You’ll get a huge fine for this.”

Vini: “We’ll pay. But nobody is coming to the mic.”

This isn’t arrogance. It’s players finally saying enough to FIFA’s corporate circus.

Half-time should be for tactics, water, recovery — not feeding the broadcast machine while the game gets sliced up for ads (sound familiar with those forced “welfare” breaks?).

FIFA under Infantino has turned football into a product. Mandatory everything. Player focus as an afterthought. Suits in Zurich cashing in.

Brazil and Vini just pushed back. Raw. Direct. No bowing to the machine.

The beautiful game belongs to the players on the pitch — not boardrooms selling every second.

Who else is done with this?

@AmosMurphy_ @BrianOrtiz67360 @wander_ink So how come during the hydration break in the second half, Germany's momentum didnt stop? Idk maybe it's just that they are a way better team regardless of the break????

@Omoiyacaro @BatteHumphrey @grok @FCBLowkey6o @Anonym2077 @FaprizzRonald0 I have no horse in this race. I couldn't care less about who's better between Ronaldo or Messi, they're both great. But just from reading this thread, it was obvious you don't care to logically argue, you just want to glaze a man lol

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@Omoiyacaro @BatteHumphrey @grok @FCBLowkey6o @Anonym2077 @FaprizzRonald0 They literally proved their point by fact checking you and then you changed the subject. I think you're just an idiot man

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@DaLooseGoose90 @CharlieHaruno They're good at drive rushing and hitting huge normals (with a drive rush buffered behind them) yeah

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@snoshi7 This isn't that weird. I don't agree with it, but some people are just a fan of narratives+ spectacle. Some of the biggest fans you will hear cheering for a team in the World Cup haven't played soccer in decades.
People are huge fans of cars they've never driven. Etc.

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@AlPedoArg @CristianRa47039 @nypost Are you retarded or just trolling people for fun

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@GeorgieIsOk I mean this applies to sports. The biggest NBA/World Cup/NFL fans have never played the game lol

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@david_ssb5 @Mimik_Saturn I never said it was? You said his innocence was proven, which is incorrect

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@vitaro_ssj @__Siffa @FGCWallaby @ChrisCCH_ You're dumb as bricks if you think these are remotely comparable lmao

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@JeanKMC_37 @hikkentikken That's also part of the problem. I personally found it funny, 6 years ago. We still recycling the same jokes and gags every few weeks though

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@ShippukenRC @zDamascus The world cup....?

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@vitaro_ssj @__Siffa @FGCWallaby @ChrisCCH_ They kicked him out literally as soon as we found out.... How is that comparable lol

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@solidxpanda I think anyone who still plays accepts that they have to do this to keep up, the "issue" people have is that they wish they didn't have to so they can engage in more interesting interactions more often.

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@reireileii Does this also apply to Ethernet adapters, game cube controllers + adapters?

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@david_ssb5 @Mimik_Saturn Someone doesn't understand what settling means.

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@EyebagsCat Think about it relative to who's saying it. The "challenger" salaries, would in fact say this lol.

[Isle Del @IsleDelfin0]

@Margqulius It's still just relative. Whoever ends up being the most popular top tier afterwards will just get complained about because relative to the new power level, they are still doing something "too good"
