The most depressing thing about loving soccer in the USA is seeing the pattern of everyone not care, then misunderstand, then get hype, then clown on soccer once the USMNT lose, then just move on.
Repeat every 4 years.
when i was growing up all i required as a fan was that the artist make good music.
it started and stopped there.
i’d wait years for a new album.
stand in line to buy the CD on release day.
obsess over it front to back, read the lyrics, stare at the art work, try to analyze it.
i got pointed at by a band in the pit once because the singer liked my mohawk and my life was made.
we gotta go back to just enjoying the ride.
What makes the Reece James situation funnier/more frustrating is that Thomas Tuchel literally managed him at club level and James suffered four injuries in just over a season while he was there
I love that Zlatan Ibrahimović and Thierry Henry are both being vocal about how this game was ultimately about minutes.
Zlatan: “Somebody has lost before in the group & won the world cup”
Henry: “We all remember Argentina lost against Saudi Arabia [in 2022], Spain lost against Switzerland [in 2010], and by the way, they were still not qualified.”
“Something happened tonight — MINUTES. Nobody gets injured. Carry on the momentum.”
