@___Colb___ @SBNation I don't like seeing this news. I'll miss you, Colb!

The best thing Alexi has ever said.

[Awful Announcing @awfulannouncing]

Alexi Lalas stuns Fox by calling James Corden ‘wanker’ on live TV https://t.co/gRZJcCwbVA

Enjoyable Canada vs Bosnia game. Ludicrous that the next match isn’t for another four hours.

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

Beautiful goal.

[mikey @mikey_747]

That was not the name I was expecting to follow the words “Uzbekistan manager”

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

Get used to saying that a lot.

[Bruce Arthur @bruce_arthur]

Man, that should have been a Canada goal

[Lucas Bourdon @lucas_bourdon]

@mookiealexander Me to everyone shocked at Jo David failing to put away an easy chance after watching him for 5 years.

Me during Nurkic’s 2018-19 season up until the leg break:

[boosie badazz boyfriend @scrohto]

I LOVE BOSNIA

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

Maybe not even that…

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

Even at full strength I don't think this Canadian team is particularly good. But they should be good enough to get out of this group. That's about their ceiling to me.

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

Willing to bet FOX put Owen Hargreaves on this game just because he's from there and opted to play for England.

[adam @nguyenxviii]

@mookiealexander there is truth to the idea that more/superior athletes choosing to play soccer would improve our player pool, but the real issue is a lack of skills development in US youth programs, too much focus on the athletic metrics rather than technical and mental ability

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

It's really ironic that Alanis Morissette is singing O Canada in Canada...

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

Michael Buble isn't supposed to be on my screen or heard singing for another six months.

[harry @hjsedits]

we need to start doing this the other way. peter crouch would’ve been the best small forward of his generation

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

There's this misunderstanding of soccer athleticism versus other sports and it's maddening.

[Rob Staton @robstaton]

@mookiealexander Why do so many people think that this is merely a choice of sport? That any of these players would simply be international level footballers had they opted for that? 😂

[Duane Rollins @24thminute]

The reason Ethiopia doesn’t win the Super Bowl is because all of their best athletes are in long distance running.

[Ken Foss @KenTFoss]

I hate to break this to idiot Americans, but the average soccer playing is 6'1 165-180lbs for a reason. It is the most tecnically demanding sport in the world with kids learning their craft for 10+ years before they ever see a professional field.

[Mookie Alexander @mookiealexander]

I’m begging American people to realize how much the average soccer player weighs.

[Frank Michael Smith @frankmikesmith]
