@AriMeyerPGH Literally made this point about the difference before, baseball grounds have everything fans over here cherish about old historic grounds, along with the design features (tiered stands, on top overlooking the field, aesthetic etc).

@divaUTD_ It’s not even hard, think of baseball stadiums like Fenway Park and Wrigley Field, stadiums which have character and history that make you feel that as you arrive there and watch the game. Old stadiums in football are just like the Jewel boxes in Baseball.
Honestly people just base claims from mindless assumptions and can’t seem to figure out that 99% of people saying “it’s coming home” is a piss take.
Everyone I’ve talked to has said we’ll progress but get knocked out.. Talk about whose the deluded ones in this.
Which country has the most deluded fans going into the World Cup?
England fans already acting like it’s coming home.
USA fans think Christian Pulisic is about to recreate prime R9.
Scotland fans think qualifying counts as a deep run.
Who’s the worst? 😭
@feacrone@shriverist Okay, now he needs to make the argument to 70mil people on why he thinks they should pay more for food, whilst also arguing to raise their taxes, destroy our economy via deficit spending whilst supporting policy to break up the UK making everyone even more poor in the long term..
@timchodz I think the only thing that is completely wrong is the fake pitch argument, as far as I know all the World Cup pitches are being played on real grass.
Funnily enough, it’s caused some fuss over your ways cause teams are wanting to keep it due to poor quality of turf pitches!
Thomas Piketty and a large team have just proposed a worldwide tax & economic revolution:
⦿ Cap rich-nation growth near zero
⦿ Cut work hours in half
⦿ Cut material consumption by 1/3
⦿ 10% of GDP going into a global fund
⦿ Tax wealth to essentially end it
It's potty.
@nijineko33@TBeetles@CaolanReports Ireland neutrality is absolute NOT like the Swiss at all.
The Swiss have a standing army, mandatory service, a military doctrine and defence plan.
Ireland literally does nothing, a tiny army and a navy which may as well be a few fellas shouting at bombers from a Mastercraft.
@NoticingPrimate@Europoorupset Most of you yank whiteboys out here talking about preserving culture and tradition, but literally use a coliseum probably designed by a twink to shit on us. You’ll never understand, you’re LARPing eternally.
@st3vat@divaUTD_ Aye but that would be too hard and opportunity to turn down, the US is too economic brained to do that, they didn’t get that rich for no reason!
@SE25EZE@st3vat@divaUTD_ Just different cultural values which are bigger than sport, the US is happy knock down and build new to progress further, whereas Europeans are likely happy to preserve and cherish, pros and cons to both!
A nice new stadium which keeps to historic designs is always good though.
@sirguywhosmiles@welsh_pain Barely anyone eats eels, thousands of Irish people however eat this monstrosity though.
Has mammy got boiled Pig dick for dinner yeah?
@supergutman We’re hosting the Euros in two years time, we can make the assessment of if we can be trusted then, especially when it doesn’t coincide with being locked indoors under restrictions for two whole years.
