World Cup

Well, that could be interesting. She would be smart to wait and do that at home, that region of the world gets offended and arrests people if a woman doesn’t cover their head properly.

they seems to have relaxed the rules, or qatar wasnt as strict as others to begin with…. I have seen “gringo” fans of european teams wearing mock head coverings in team colors.

Argentina wins 3-0. Their approximate 40k fans sang most of the second half.

Croatia’s worst defeat in WC. A beautiful example when your MO is playing for a tie to reach PKs (AKA playing not to lose) it can bite you in the backside.

Messi will set the WC record for most career games played on Sunday.

good stat….thanks.
btw what is his height and weight? and not sure if they publish speed stats in soccer? at first glance doesnt seem intimidating, but eyes are often deceived

It’s his job. If a keeper touches the ball, 10 other people failed in their job.

Been watching Army-Navy and England-France. Few would imagine a soccer game with more scoring opportunities than any football game.

Go Navy! Beat Army!

thats what happens to football at military academies and recruiting in general under #BBB

first time under FBS system that Navy missed three straight bowls and only second time under FBS system (2011 was other time) that army and navy both missed bowls

Nobody can tell me Argentina didn't throw that first match against Saudi Arabia. Nobody. People must have made millions on that one.

I was saying this the entire game. (watched recorded replay)

Morocco is a great story but France v Argentina has a chance to be the most entertaining final we've seen in our WC lifetimes.

Watching Messi dominate that game yesterday, the way he did, at his age, was just... magic.

Magic would have been seeing Ms Croatia’s clothes disappear . . .

Tourists can “get away” with certain things in “zones” set up for the WC. It’s how much FIFA/Qatar will tolerate for a dollar. I doubt the WC will go to another Qatar like country. Budweiser is taking a unforeseen hit not being able to sell beer as they thought they’d originally negotiated. Ironic to see their logo on the sideline video board.

I’m watching Morocco and Spain just to see if there’s any magic in the whistle. A Moroccan win changes the crowd dynamics for a final, a major draw politically in Qatar.

Same theory you have about the Saudi win, but with whistles. Can’t picture France throwing the match.

Sorry Vic, she’s staying dressed.

[ZoomZoom]

France wins 2-0. Kinda sloppy at times. Won’t miss the whistling.

There was one jersey swap.

Croatia and Morocco play third place game, don’t know if Miss Croatia deal in play.

[ZoomZoom]

Well Vic, she’ll be there for the third place game…
