2 changes soccer could make to make the game popular in the USA -

Yellow cards for diving and no passing backwards in your own end of the field.

Haha and the religious nutjobs in that ME chithole have banned alcohol sales from the games.  HTF all of the FIFA committee isn't in jail for corruption is beyond me.

It’s the beer ban that’s the story, not the slavery and death. Leftist media.

FIFA is the story for taking 300 million to let Cutter host. Disgusting.

That's focking depressing. You turned into me and I turned into you. I married and divorced. One kid. 4. I'm good with the kid. But I just couldn't take the wife. She focken drove me crazy with her dumbness. 

Good to see you man.   I spent most of my single life dating stupid girls, and by dating I mean focking.  Thankfully I married a smart girl.  Better luck next time around.

World Cup 2022: Teams scrap rainbow-colored armband plan after FIFA threatens ‘sporting sanctions’

DOHA, Qatar — Seven European teams have scrapped plans to wear rainbow-colored anti-discrimination captains' armbands at the 2022 World Cup after FIFA threatened them with “sporting sanctions,” the teams said in a joint statement Monday.

England, Wales and others had said months ago, and as recently as Sunday, that their captains would wear the “One Love” armbands, which are part of a broader campaign originally launched by the Dutch soccer federation (KNBV) against discrimination. “The colors in the heart of the logo represent everyone's pride in their own origin, color, gender identity and sexual orientation,” the KNBV said in September.

FIFA, though, did not respond to or engage with the European federations until this past weekend, on the eve of the tournament. And when it did, it was “very clear that it will impose sporting sanctions if our captains wear the armbands on the field of play,” the European nations, which also include Belgium, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland, said in their statement.

“We were prepared to pay fines that would normally apply to breaches of kit regulations and had a strong commitment to wearing the armband,” the statement continued. “However, we cannot put our players in the situation where they might be booked or even forced to leave the field of play.”

The seven nations, plus France and two others not at the World Cup, adopted the campaign ahead of the 2022 tournament, implicitly in light of Qatari laws that restrict, among other things, LGBTQ rights. Qatar’s penal code punishes gay sex and “leading, instigating, or seducing a male to commit sodomy or dissipation” with multiple years in prison.

It’s a very young team. I am hoping we don’t waste our time while we have pulisic

[Reality 2,710]

Had it on my office TV, got up to take a piss and they scored. So, missed that. They weren't very good after that.

Also, the foul that led to the tie was very stupid. No need for it even though he got ball.

the fact that the donk was shaking his head no when it happened, he knew he focked up. Should be benched for his stupidity

USA pissed that game away.  Should have easily won but had too many mistakes in the second half.  The officiating was pretty bad as well.

After they get trounced by England, they are in big trouble.

Celebrating scoring on a penalty kick, the same way you would if you scored a normal goal. This sh1t has got to go. No one is impressed.

I just watched the Argentina game (Fast forwarded through the goals)  they got screwed having their 2nd goal taken away. Was not offsides. The guy offsides was not part of the play. Terrible call

Bad take.  Celebrate every goal as they don't always come often.

Of course they are.  Goals are hard to come by and extremely important.  Getting a sack when losing by 21 is not worth celebrating.  Of all the things in sports that get celebrated, this is not the one to complain about.

Not impressed someone dove inside the penalty box to score a goal.

Now you save a penalty shot? That is worth celebrating

Messico will be taking on the pole in about an hour.

What is the deal with all the PRIDE gear stuff?   I understand Qatar won't allow it.  But why does everyone want to wear gay pride stuff and rainbows all of a sudden? Is it gay pride month?
