I'm also balding

It's common to call bald managers "bald frauds" in soccer, Guardiola is a prime example.

Bald is beautiful my brothers in hairlessness!

Crap Summerville better not be hurt bad

 

[Skip Bayless]

Koné is ahead of schedule, should be training with the team any time now.

Well, Netherlands absolutely dominated Sweden. Won 5-1. That moves them into 1st place in their division. Sweden holds onto 2nd place.

Japan plays Tunisia much later tonight, so they could move into 1st with a win. It'll depend on goal differential.

I doubt they're dropping a 4-0 win but we will see

I think most people are all for Hydration Breaks when it's necessary but that just hasn't been the case which is frustrating.
You would think they could make a pre-game determination.

Yeah but how will they make ad money if it's not hot enough

Be prepared to sell a kidney to afford a ticket.

According to Gemini tickets should start at around $9,000 USD on the resale market. I'd allocated $20K for my potential pair, but, should the US team make it it's probably cost closer to 50K for 2. Yeah, I'm not dropping that. We'll see what happens, the idea behind attending is to partake in something historic on my home-soil.

Looks like it will start heating up next week, maybe teams should try this,

The USA would try to Americanize Cricket if they could.

They did lol...
150 years ago they did actually

And they called it 'baseball'
True story lol. Not even kidding
They did the same with Rugby / 'football' too

Can't say they didn't improve both those sports

 

[Scottish Hab]

Scotland is just not good enough.

Our manager is a miserable negative bastard

We lose a first minute goal, no shame in that against 6th in the world

But we have no way to respond because of the tactics and mentality he instills in the players

In the last Euros we needed a win in our last game against Hungary to qualify and he set us up to play for a draw

 

[Redux91]

Wow shocker!!

Ivory Coast looks better than their ranking. Playing more like a top 20 team.

Rugby is a great sport

Cricket is weird AF

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

first legit upset of the tourney on the way?

 

[Whalers Fan]

True but the U.S. has a solid squad

I don't think they are at the level of the elite teams, though. Argentina, Brazil, etc

Agree with that but they can beat those teams on a given day.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

is that a throwback Germany '94 jersey? memories of childhood...

“Drogbaaaaaaaaa!”

Bad timing

 

[Skip Bayless]

There.

 

[Redux91]

There you go

It was starting to get into ze Germans heads lol

 

[the valiant effort]

It is so funny to compare Nagelsmann to someone like Joachim Low who strolled the sideline head to toe in Hugo Boss

 

[the valiant effort]

That play brought to you by Bet365

 

[Skip Bayless]

If Ivory Coast loses this game, that guy will never hear the end of it.
