Ok so I know most of you are Yanks who got a weird sense of what sports matter (except you my darling Faye, but I know your team isn't playing), but I can't be the only one whose super jacked-up these days can I?
Can I?

C'mon people, this is the World Cup!
This matters more than regular sports, more than politics, more than war, more than LIFE!

WORLD CUP, WORLD CUP!

Peru hasn't been to the World Cup in more than 20 years, I am  used to rooting for other teams :)
Have to say was sad seeing Japan get smashed by CdI yesterday (read lots of jokes about it and how they haven't got "fucked" twice since 1945, i have to admit I laughed a little) but everybody knew it was going to happen sooner or later.

Yeah Japan had it rough. Nice goal by Honda though.

Looking forward to Germany - Portugal later today.
Go Portugal!

I was amused at my friend's posts on Facebook. He's half Spanish, half Hollander.

And my brother's fiance is Brazilian, so most of my family is actually rooting for someone this year... which is really odd. None of us ever gave a shit about it before.

Am I correct in assuming that aside from Peru you hate all Spanish-speaking countries?
Title: Re: World Cup bitches World Cup

Everybody in South America hate chileans.
Everybody in Latin America hate spaniards.

Now if we beat Argentina on Wednesday and Germany in the finals this will have been the perfect tournament

Poor Brasil.
That wasn't a football match, that was a public execution

Post by: Faye Valentine on Jul 08, 2014, 09:09:16 PM
Germans were classy enough to let them score a goal at the end, as a goodbye gift.

national selection tshirt- 50 bucks
tickets to the game- 500 bucks
getting fucked in your own turf, 7 against 1- priceless

Oh no wait, that'd be 11 billion bucks.

I don't follow World Cup news but I kept seeing pictures of bawwing Brazil-fans all over the place.  Didn't know they got fucked that badly though.  WOW.

Is the US still in this thing?  Because if so, that's kinda fucked up considering how this country as a whole shits on the sport.
Title: Re: World Cup bitches World Cup
Post by: Rumble on Jul 10, 2014, 11:56:08 AM
No we're down to the final which is gonna be between Germany and Argentina.
And Germany is totally going to win
Title: Re: World Cup bitches World Cup

I'd love an upset though.  Oh well.  Dream the dream.
Title: Re: World Cup bitches World Cup
Post by: Rumble on Jul 10, 2014, 01:59:21 PM
The US got to the 1/8 finals where they got kicked out by Belgium.
The US never gets very far in the World Cup, in the end it's always down to countries from Europe and South America
Title: Re: World Cup bitches World Cup
Post by: Faye Valentine on Jul 10, 2014, 08:40:24 PM
Except Peru of course

Well it's not like Argentina has no chance. They havr Messi who is arguably the best football player alive today.

It's just well...
