2014 WORLD CUP - SOCCER IS GHEY PART DOIS.
« on: December 06, 2013, 11:34:19 AM »

Given the U.S. draw this is going to be a short lived thread.

That's one reason.

That's one reason.

Another is any draw would make their stay in Brazil short because most countries are better at soccer.

Another, as Eli so coolly pointed out, is that SOCCER IS FOR QUEERDICKED TARDBAGS.

Anyway, this queerdicked tardbag thinks it's more fun to play the best teams so I'm excited.

I have no problem with soccer, just saying that it's not heavily discussed 'round these parts.

From the little bit I know, that last part makes sense. Seems like a fun narrative to go up against the best with the chance to pull off a huge upset. Like when the Rose-less Bulls beat the Miami Heat by 20 for some reason.

A bunch of TV shows that it seems like everyone who watches actually hates.
I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

The only time I watch grass hockey is during the World Cup. And it is awesome. Go sports!
You two wanna go stick your wangs in a hornet's nest, it's a free country.  But how come I always gotta get sloppy seconds, huh?

The soccer World Cup makes me wish the IIHF could finally get their shit together and do a hockey one at regular intervals. That would fucking rule.

In addition to the Winter Olympics? So you would have your regular seasons interrupted every two years instead of four? I'm not arguing against it but is that something you would want? How would you make it better than the Olympic tournament if you ran the zoo?

They had this non-Olympic tournament a few times under varying names and there was one in particular when the USA won it and I remember being extremely excited about it.

That's the ticket. Have a pre-NHL season tourney, while everyone is healthy.

Although, it's easy to want this as an American, since the US is one of the four countries (the others being Russia, Canada and Sweden) who are in the medal round of every international tournament from Juniors up.

I'm not sure what the point is now that Tore Vikingstad is retired.

We can always hope for Germany to mend our broken hearts.
