World cup of Soccer ( Fubol )

As the host nation to the world's cup, how do you like team USA's chances of advancing to the next round of play?



I am interested in this event. The USA women are the best. The men, not so much.



The game in my opinion needs refinement. The offside rule is silly. Confine it to the goal box and you will see more skill and scoring. Play your F'n man.


The faking injuries to draw cards is also silly. Often the man down is up right away if he does not get a card forced. If I want to see men flopping clutching their legs and covering up from free kicks I know where to go...


And on that note, GO USA.

 

Only time I follow the sport is World Cup. I root for Italy and us of course but don't expect much from men. Amazing World event. I live South of Philly. Philly getting some games this time. Always wanted to see a World Cup game but little to much for me to navigate at this age. Motels prices are insane and I imagine ticket prices will be too.

TBH, I don't understand the rules and don't understand the strategies but enjoy the WC. I do love they don't stop the clock. Suck on that NFL.

 

I just read about the offside rule. Odd.

 

Me too. I usually root for Cameroon but, last time, I was pulling hard for Iceland! I like the underdog/small countries.

 

Motel rooms in Philly hitting 400 a night. Not only World Cup but it's USA 250th birthday.

I was in Germany for our 200th and the descendants of the Nazi's threw us a nice party, fireworks and all.

 

Well, I have some good choices to see a game. I have Brazil/Morocco in North Jersey, Brazil/Haiti in Philly, France/Senegal in North Jersey, and France/Bolivia or Iraq.

Philly will be hosting a PGA Major plus it's 250 years for the good old USA. Gonna be busy all around me.

The cost of everything is through the roof. Only 70 miles away but we like to stay over. Motel rooms hitting 4-500 a night. Our resort town is 70 miles away but all Motels booked solid for the season.

 

I only pull for U.S.A.

 

I worked in Honduras for a while. My first night in the country Honduras beat mexico in futbol. I swear it sounded like a war had broken out.
