so tired of seeing all the euros posting stuff like WoRsT wOrLd CuP eVeR and clowning on the venues, etc.

I've been to most of the "top" PL stadiums and as a diehard gooner worship the Emirates, but those stadiums are absolute ****holes compared to our NFL stadiums. They're honestly ****holes compared to Kyle. More history and character...sure, but ****holes.

There's simply no way you could see Mercedes Benz or AT&T, Sofi, etc. and not be in absolute awe as a sports venue. But, they'll keep regurgitating the same nonsense from their keyboards from countries that don't give them the opportunity to earn enough to see them in person.

sorry, rant over.

Nou Camp, as a building, was not anything to write home about or special

They had to cover every parking lot pole banner at AT&T stadium because it had a Dr Pepper logo on it. You're talking 40 plus per parking lot.

I am soooo pumped! Boston has been a blast today!

One more sleep!

I'm thinking driving down to Houston from ntx with daughter to watch Saudi Arabia v capo verde (cheapest tickets out there) to simply see a WC match without breaking the bank (she really likes soccer, her favorite sport)

I'm so jealous. I couldn't get Scotland tickets and i already had sank quite a bit of money into the British Grand Prix in July

I'll be in my kilt and kit watching from the fan fest tomorrow

Nobody will care about my degenerate gambling ways, but I officially took the worst beat of my entire sports betting career tonight.

Bet a measly $30 on the final score to be USA 3-1 to win $600. Sweated out 7 minutes. My idiot buddy high fived me six minutes and 30 seconds into stoppage time and said "we won". I said "chill. It's not official yet".

And then USA after kicking the ball back to the defense and to our keeper ends up scoring after 7 minutes at the end. Never witnessed such a kick in the soccer balls.

Other than that and after vomiting, very impressed with how good we looked tonight and can't wait for Juneteenth.

Just think, if you had bet the score to be 4-1. Probably an even better pay off and how that would have been the happiest moment of your betting career.

Thank goodness for Birthright citizenship

Feels like a missed opportunity to not have an early match today.

Welp just off the phone with my mom (who is from Glasgow and in here 70s) and she asked if it was possible to still see a Scotland world cup game. So now I'm looking at tickets for the match in Miami. Uf she had just said something like 2 days ago I could have bought last minute tickets directly from FIFA.

This is not going to be cheap

(If you are just visiting board for WC and don't recognize them, don't worry about it)

Very interested to see the turnout for the Qatar-Swiss match. First non US match in the United States featuring smaller teams. How full does Levi's Stadium get

Did I need McDonalds at 11pm last night? No.

Do I regret that decision? Also no.

I have a feeling last nights big game might have sparked a lot of FOMO for people who didn't get tickets.

The now almost universal disdain for Lalas has been my favorite part of the tournament so far, aside from the US win. I've always hated that guy and never understood why he keeps being propped up like Mr Soccer USA.

The game in Boston v. Morocco looks a lot cheaper.

She can't make that game. She is coming back from Branson, MO the day before and thats too fast of a turn around for her.

Anyone watching pregame right now that doesn't know Zlatan just got an introduction. When talking about Qatar's chances against Switzerland:

Qatar will need god today, but I am here.

Scotland vs. Brazil tickets secured!

The Alexi hate is amusing its not his job to be vanilla or have had the experience of being the best in the world or whatever. His role is to be Charles Barkley (although not even to that extreme). He's by far the best of any of these type guys for an American broadcast. Its no accident that no matter what network it is, Lalas is a fixture while every other option comes and goes. If Fox had to fire two of the three they have had for our broadcasts it would be Henry and Zlatan kicked off.

He beats Landon "Velvet Monotone" Donovan for me… at least there's something interesting going on even if it turns out to be a train wreck. (Donovan is the clearly better player, but… as a pundit, he has a vocal delivery style that is … let's say, better suited to newspaper).

When global sportswear conglomerates swap out centuries-old national colours for corporate, trend-chasing palettes like lime green, it is frequently interpreted as a deliberate attempt to dilute national pride and untether the team from its traditional cultural identity. The argument is that by reducing the national flag and historic colours to something secondary or entirely absent, the institution of the national team is being globalised and stripped of its distinct patriotism.

Swiss kits are leftist poo and their roster is not Swiss.

This post brought to you by a bot.

First time I've seen someone create a sock for the soccer board.

Live update from Boston ....

For our train to the stadium it said to arrive between 2:15-2:45 for group A boarding.....Got there at 2:20 (mind you - kick isn't until 9pm local).....the line to get to the start of the actual queue was SEVEN blocks long. An hour and twenty five minutes later we sat down on the train.

In-between, we sang about Super John McGinn several times and did a couple of renditions of Flower of Scotland. At one point I was FaceTiming with the man next to men's daughter while he was wearing my hat.

No Scotland, No Party!

The restaurant/bar area bu the stadium is COMPLETLEY overrun....it's a zoo.

We walked about 1/2 mile from the stadium and found an Olive Garden and sat down in the cool to get some normal human food

Secured tickets to the Netherlands vs Sweden in Houston for the family. I finally pulled the trigger when I saw a lot of the tickets on my watch list moving up in price.

Anyone got any advice on what to expect on logistics? I'm hoping after the Germany game we can learn where is best to park etc.

It's on my watch list for ticket prices. We may do that game as well if the tickets stay low going into next week.

It's so inspiring how FIFA makes them call MetLife Stadium "New York/New Jersey Stadium" so as to avoid a commercial entanglement.

It's good to know that there's still one organization in the world that doesn't care about money.

Congrats - your opinion is shared by legions of 15 year old Reddit communists. Well done telling on yourself by admitting you've always hated him, even when he was playing for our nation.

People loved the Spin Doctors and somehow got confused.
