😂 I'm just here to pretend I know anything about soccer when the truth is I'm just looking for a reason to drink and scream U-S-A🤷🏿

I am surprised by the teams that didn't make the cut: Italy,  Costa Rica, Chile, India, and China. I bet the Italians are seething they choked in the playoffs.

Pundits say Spain and France are so deep they can field two World Cup teams equally dominant. USA no excuses left. No less than Quarterfinals is the expectation or we blow it all up from youth soccer on up in this country.

The Italians are seething that they were even in the playoffs.  How the mighty have fallen.

I sent you a message but wanted to make sure you saw this.  I have an extra ticket for the Japan vs Sweden game in Dallas on the 23rd if you are interested.

This World Cup has been pretty entertaining thus far. Greatest sporting event in the world by miles.

And what about this?

France vs Senegal should be one of the best games of the group stage.

It's not possible lol. Not with the way the bracket is set up.

All of the Europeans have quieted down for the most part since they're realizing how incredible this World Cup has been and will be.... But I can't stop laughing at them complaining about what time the games are for them. During the Tokyo Olympics, I was up at 3 AM watching Water Polo and averaged like 3 hours of sleep. They just don't want it bad enough

I'd have Summer Olympics 1st personally but World Cup is 2nd.

I did not know how much I needed this FIFA World Cup. Been incredibly entertaining. And reading and watching all the interactions and travels of people from other countries visiting America has been heartwarming, funny, and good for my soul. And I remember the 1994 FIFA World Cup...and it was not anywhere near as entertaining as 2026 has been thus far.
