serious question

who here is really boycotting this world cup? like tuning out, avoiding it as much as possible, and come back when the club season resumes?

we're 12 days out and for the world cup and euros i usually would be hyped right now. trying to decide which portugal kit im going to wear for the next month and planning things out with my boys. but this one sucks.
I plan to boycott but will post when England loses and when the WC champ is crowned as a fan of theirs.
 
article from a couple weeks ago regarding the situation with moukoko. recent reports in Germany say dortmund have made progress in him signing the extension after his birthday. let's see what happens

Come on now
It’s the Greatest sporting event in the world.
 
Morally I feel like I should because there were thousands of people who lost their lives and all the corruption involved makes me sick.

On the other hand, this is probably the last one for CR7 and Messi so I feel like I need to pay my respects and see if either one can make a legit push to win it.

Might have to DVR like 90% of the matches, West Coast time is gonna be brutal.

I feel what you’re saying. It doesn’t feel like a WC is about to be played at all.

Thankfully Speed dropped a World Cup anthem that’s a banger.

Now the fever is starting to hit. :pimp:
 
This World Cup feels almost like an obligation. I’m sure the players want to win no matter what, but the human rights issues, terrible scheduling, and the higher probability of players being overworked and injured before and after the tournament really took a toll on a lot of people’s excitement.

There were a lot of issues with the prior few World Cups too, with Russia’s human rights issues and Brasil’s economic corruption, but they still ended up being able to provide a festive atmosphere that had fans tuning in weeks before the games even started.

I am, won't watch any games.

Greatest sporting event in the world indeed, absolutely love it, way more than championships, CLs etc and was kinda looking forward to **** on y'all selections on here.

I do hate slavery more than I love football tho
