emblematic of the american culture of being pussies and too uptight everywhere

it's what holds us back in general, and more specifically relating to this in american soccer culture. the bad commentary, the pointless impartiality on international matters, etc

every single person in an outrage was american, the brit journos went and one of them even lightly mocked the whole situation talking about




hopefully ball gets press out of this, dude is a great writer than isnt recognized for it

more examples

Frustrated by the draw that placed his U.S. Olympic team alongside Argentina and Portugal back in 1996, coach Bruce Arena famously lashed out at the “nice Americans” who “don’t cheat” and who are “too stupid to fix a draw.”

Arena took some heat for that little rant and sure enough, the host U.S. finished third in its quartet and was eliminated from Olympic competition.

Still two years away from taking over the senior U.S. squad, Arena called soccer “the biggest cheating sport in the world,” implying – likely with tongue in cheek — that manipulation of those all-important plastic balls is par for the course at the game’s highest level.

you're saying USA couldnt have provided a couple mil and bought the world cup either???

not passionate enough to stoop to normal levels.

@Liu Kang do people say "rien mais filet" alot? Like "nothing but net" when they play basketball/football? And "tirer/tire a vue" is "shoot on sight"?

Nah we say "nothing but net" because the expression sounds good. Or we say "swish". The literal translation would be "rien que le filet".
"To shoot on sight" translates as "Tirer à vue". "A shoot on sight" = "Un tir à vue".

Plastic balls could be heated or cooled down to recognize them. Yes it's a known cheating practice.

Got some disagreements with the rankings but I'm convinced this is the strongest World Cup ever on paper.

Nigeria 20. Ghana 21.

duly noted
