World Cup 2022

[Gargamel]

I know we’re generally a bunch of nerds and “ewwww Sportsball”, but cmon, there has to be some other fans out there right?  
 

How about those upsets in the group stage so far?

[Caerfinon]

I fear Canada should have perhaps sent the women's team instead...

US has been saying that for years.

Here’s hoping France breaks the curse…

Love to see another upset in the upcoming Crotia / Brazil match.    Right @Shpaget?

[Zozaf Kerman]

December 10th… 

France V England

The old rivalry has come back! Who do you guys think will win?

My bets on France…

[Aerodynamic Kerbal]

I feel like England has been not really playing as good as any other year, so...

Maybe France?

For sure!

We've never won against Brazil, so hoping for that to change. Brazil is excellent, but if Croatia plays as well as they did the first half against Canada, it's gonna be a fun match to watch.

I'm enjoying the unintended consequences of people seeing the crowd shots. 

Oh yeah, and the sportsball has been fun, too! 

[Gargamel]

Holy cow!    What a game!   What a comeback!

Wow, that was nerve wrecking.

[Zozaf Kerman]

I wonder what the chances are of it being France V Croatia in the finals again… ? That would certainly shake up a lot of things to say the least.

[Gargamel]

Clearly Morocco was fed up with their Iberian neighbor’s shenanigans.    

[Zozaf Kerman]

What a nerve-wracking game!

Watching this last week my wife and I did diagnose why Americans will never watch soccer/football. Its the diving. The diving is insufferable. And its so easy to fix. For the love of god drop all the the melodramatic rolling around on the ground and just add time outs. How have we not realized that players faking injuries for a water break is a fully insane state of affairs?

Agree. It's so stupid, and ridiculous. Women soccer is much better in that regard, apparently. Personally I dont care about either one, but I was told only the men do that silly diving stuff.

So on Sunday it will be... France VS Argentina?

[Shpaget]

Croatia wins the bronze!

[Zozaf Kerman]

And it starts!

[IsuckatKSP]

Messi has finally done it 

Argentina has won this world cup

[Zozaf Kerman]

Nooooo! 
 

Mbappe couldn’t clutch it this time…

[Nazalassa]

:(

[kerbiloid]

Like always, this hockey cup was great!

[Kerbal123_Furry]

World Cup?

What's that? A wine-brewing competition?
