@flannel-slut I had to do it as I looked here and saw that Canada was ranked 38 out of 48…I needed something to laugh about.

The Scots straight up embarrassed the American Irish of Boston. They outdrank their St Paddy’s Day efforts.

I would blame FIFA as much as America for commercializing the water break. What originated by necessity in Qatar will remain a fixture to make more people more money. I don’t see how you can see the corruption of FIFA and assign blame solely to the US for that. Enshittification is an international phenomenon, we just led the way.

I feel the same way as G about the Cup and FIFA’s corruption. And yet the games have been extremely entertaining as long as you mute Alexei Lalas or watch Telemundo.

After USA, pulling for England.

I've watched half of one, and loved it......

@mclaincausey did you see highlights of them at Fenway? I’ve been to a few playoff games where you could feel the foundation shake and it looked like nothing compared to what the Scottish (dodged that one) did during a regular season mid June game. Fucking awesome.

@goosehd even if you take the horrible injury into account yesterday's game should give you something to smile about
