The Soccer Thread

[Buck Joe Fiden]

OK, this is an American site, with a majority American membership, so no hate from anyone for calling it soccer.

We've had the 'Beckham earns more than" thread as our de facto football thread, but I thought I'd make a more conclusive one where it is just an open board, as not to further derail that thread's initial point.

I'll start with this:



Haha. I have to quote the top comment:

Loving the World Cup Highlights

What is the weird psychological effect that makes it just about as good watching your rivals lose, than watching your favorite teams win... You could not write a better script, this entitled bunch of complainers who give you no reason whatsoever to root for them, losing on a penalty kick after almost getting bounced in the group stage, by their most insufferable SJW blowing a PK. Just... Awesome. Megan Rapinoe always campaigned for justice and she ended her career with that sweet, sweet poetic justice

A surprisingly less Burger King Kids Club Germany took a beat down from the honorary Aryans. Only a hand full of comments pointed out the similar degradation of former Western footballing powerhouses.
