It’s the ultimate form of self-deprecation, it was written 30 years ago about us being shit and is still being sung 30 years later because we’ve failed to win anything. It’s the opposite of arrogance, it’s about the triumph of hope over likely failure. It’s not hard to get.

This entire conversation yet again proves that Europeans do not understand just how fucking big the United States is. Guys, it takes 8 hours by CAR to get across one state like sorry you have to drive/take transportation to MetLife. Citi Field is there for you if you wanna walk.

Joseph from Piscataway going +80mph is not going to give a fuck about some Dutch fans marching over a 6 lane highway

Europeans during every other world cup: "We go to the world cup and experience local culture! It's beautiful." Europeans during an American world cup "This isn't European football culture and therefor wrong"

Why aren't any of these people irate that 2-star hotels are charging $1-3k a night during the event? We're fine with private businesses reaping huge profits, but taxpayers are supposed to cover transportation? And yeah, FIFA is "nonprofit" - but it pays its execs millions

New Jersey taxpayers are footing a $26 million bill, only for FIFA to brand it the “New York World Cup” while every game is played in New Jersey. Why should we the taxpayers, fund false advertising while we’re already suffering NJ’s high costs?

Mark O’Hara was just able to commit a professional foul when Celtic had a 3v2 counter attack. Why? Because he wasn’t booked after literally catching the ball in the first half.

And Gov Murphy is part owner of Gotham FC. He has a vested interest in trying to get people more excited about soccer. But he never had the right to put a tax burden on NJ for it.

It’s kinda funny that despite England inventing modern football, the majority white former English colonies are some of the only non Asian countries where football isn’t the most popular sport. Even weirder is that they all have an even more popular sport they call football

The extraordinary thing here is that mass transit actually has pricing power for the first time since the automobile If FIFA won't share ticket revenue to fund special World Cup service, & Meadowlands doesn't allow parking, then NJT can charge its own access fee for admission

ERIKA KIRK: “If you look around the world right now, Europe has surrendered itself to third world criminals — and under the Biden administration, we were on track for that for ourselves. But President Trump came in and course corrected."

Amazing to be informed by local residents that the concept of walking to a stadium from a train station is so alien that it is in fact illegal

It’ll be proper funny if Falkirk win the cup and Hibs catch Motherwell. Greatest team in their history and they get nothing . The media love in has been ridiculous
