I hate soccer and won’t watch the World Cup Thread.

Let me stress that the pictures being posted post-match are from a single match. There will be 38 days of this! Thirty-eight glorious days of this. I can understand if this is too much for some of y’all to handle, no judgement. But let it be asked and answered: Who’s got two thumbs and is watching the World Cup? Me.
IF the US team makes it to the finals, and I know what day that is, I will probably might check to see what the score is. That is about as much as I could stand.

Two games so far today, two 1-1 draws. There was quality, but draws won’t help get stupid ‘Muricans to pay attention to futbol. Granted, I don’t have a solution other than one team winning in regulation. Shootouts are stupid horse-a$$, and you can’t have sudden-death overtime over a 38-day tournament in summer heat.

😞

Is it weird that my only interest in the World Cup is watching videos of Europeans enjoying the freedom of being an American (free soda refills made me chuckle) and Koreans making out with hot Mexican women? I have not watched a single game yet.

Not weird. I think we all have experienced enough circuits of the Sun to recognize weird, and it ain't this.

So you're saying that the US "never got close to winning a World Cup", and you define getting close as "I define final 4 as getting close maybe final 8"?

Wouldn't that mean that when we got to the Final 8, we were close? (or at least pretty close)
Yeah pretty close if we ever got there but clearly we have no sustained success. Maybe we do some damage this year.
