2014 FIFA World Cup thread, v1

[Tobago Jones]

I'm gonna try my hardest to go to the Olympics, at least it'll be more peaceful.

 

[Kadafi]

I would love to have gone to Brasil, I am in South Africa working during the WC openers and will be home in the US for the finals. SA has a ton of football fans here. A lot of Liverpool fans.

 

[COTUR1@43]

Is the US v Nigeria kickoff at 6pm EST or does pre-game broadcast start at 6 with kickoff at 6:30?

A couple of friends are backpacking their way to Rio.

I would like to go. But the riots and protests aren't the dealbreaker. It's that stuff is stupid expensive.

 

[GracieMMABarra]

I was going to go but I decided I've already been to Brasil (Loved it) but I rather spend time somewhere new.

 

[DangDaGawd]

I just wish that the next two World Cups weren't in Russia and Qatar - two places I have no desire to visit.

Let's hope Fifa don't act like the corrupt idiots they are, and actually have a revote. Everyone can see that Qatar bought their votes.

The sailor in his whites drinking out of a flask...

USA USA USA!

 

[edgekiller65]

Now look at Moses besmirching Murrica's defense.

Wow, it's really packed at Jacksonville.

 

[xtramob]

Oh god. this back line..

 

[edgekiller65]

With all those Don't Tread on Me signs at the American Outlaws section, I wonder if there will be a Zeb Colter cameo.

 

[illclint]

Juanfran's passing wasn't very crisp. Carvajal would have been.a better choice. Horsing alba is a weak link too. But that midfield is so stacked they've got a legit shot to win. Pique and ramos paired well too.

 

[CardonaLJ**]

Had to quit watchdogs to watch the game. US making stupid passes so far

 

[xtramob]

Jesus. Every critical pass has been off.

 

[Mcx]

god england are shit

 

[CardonaLJ**]

Jesus. Every critical pass has been off.

Yep. Putting too much power on em. But making costly mistakes

 

[xtramob]

Everyones passing is off today.

 

[Chules]

Rooney is crap, wtf does he do ? Won't win anything with him, doesn't offer anything.

For all games, bench him and put on Lambert instead.

 

[edgekiller65]

So...Altidore's performances can be blamed on the Ghanaian witch doctor?
