We are a few days away from the tournament starting.

I think the USMNT will be lucky to get out of the group.

Our play has not been good lately.

Regardless that’s why you play the games.

GO USA!!!



If all you want to do in this thread is bash soccer, please just move along.

Thanks.

I will never forget Brazil getting smashed in 2014 against Germany. I was at Sam's Club and they had the game on most of their TVs, I saw the score and did a triple take. It looked like a football score. And to see the Brazilians crying! Big Grin

It's going to be hard for me to support the USA team since they've become woke.

Check out the new team logo:

I love watching the World Cup. I wish it wasn't in Qatar, though.

I'm not happy with the change on the USMNT uniforms either. They're trying to make a statement after a Qatar World Cup ambassador told a reporter that homosexuality was "damage to the mind." I wonder if they're going to bother protesting Qatar's treatment of foreign workers used to build the soccer facilities...?

Husband and I were watching that game with a bunch of Germans. It was great. My second favorite German player, Miroslav Klose, was on that squad. Keeper Manuel Neuer is my favorite German player. I imagine this will be his last World Cup.

Seeing how that logo is a giant middle finger to the Arab World, I will have to disagree with you this time and support the logo.

I'm a huge soccer fan, albeit primarily Bundesliga, and I am done with US Soccer given their un-American logo.

In my humble opinion, protesting does NOT belong on the field.

Not a good enough reason IMHO, USA belongs in red, white and blue.

My attention span for soccer is good for about 6 games every 4 years. I will watch Argentina, Portugal, Netherlands or Germany play.




I have a few SIGs.

Yup. Fuck that. Red white and blue respect the flag or go fuck yourself. I hope they get fucking steamrolled every fucking game. Did I mention, fuck them?

Admittedly, I hadn't looked at it in that regard. I'm still on the fence about it though.

As the resident Argie I just want to inform everyone that i don’t know the first thing about soccer / futbol and have never cared about it.

Used to play Rugby as a kid and was too skinny to make a difference. I sucked at it.

Sorry if disappointing .

I have to say that I’m very disappointed in the crest.

It should not be changed whatsoever.

FIFA is corrupt to the core and this World Cup should have been played here in the USA.

Lots of votes were bought and paid for to get the games played in Qatar.


This is the result of woke propaganda bullshit.


Regardless I’m going to root wholeheartedly for the USMNT.

The players have nothing to do with the uniforms crest.


That being said. GO USA!!!

I have played competitive soccer all my life (when soccer wasn't cool) and still hold records at my college (I am 50 now).

I have given up watching/supporting MLB, NFL, NBA for all of their woke shenanigans. All I have left is the NHL and USMNT.

I am going to have to re-evaluate my support of the USMNT.

I am rooting for the beer tents, although the sponsor is Budweiser. Yuck.

Fuck the islamo-supremacists and dhimmitude.

I hope that a South American team wins as their play is usually fluid and skillful.

European - Germany, Americas - never bet against Brazil.

I'd like to see USA do well, but I'll be surprised if they get out of the group stage, given the draw they've got. England will choke in the semi-finals (if they get there), as always.

Les Bleus and the Azzurri seem to be rebuilding but they're always a threat to do well.

Brazil, Argentina, France, England, Spain, Germany are favorites in that order. Croatia is fun to watch. Danes because of Christian Eriksen clinically dying at the Euros less than 18 months ago yet returning to play at the highest level. It will be another strange World Cup without the Italians though Frown

Meanwhile Cristiano (I refuse to call him Ronaldo - there was only one Ronaldo) has to steal the headlines from the World Cup buildup with his Piers Morgan "interview/"toys from the pram" rant" guaranteeing he will never play for ManU again.
