    Fuck no. I’m boycotting the shit out of that event in every way possible. I’ll just watch Villa reruns of them winning Europe

    Nope, I plan on going out of my way to make sure I have exactly 0 exposure to that crap.

      i don’t even have to work that hard to avoid it. there’s no soccer here. the local school doesn’t field a team, there isn’t a youth soccer program either. it’s either hockey season or conditioning-and-training for next hockey season.

    I ended my world cup interest back in Qatar.

    you have to be a complete ignorant asshole to support FIFA.
