Oh boy, hilarious. The possibly excessive coverage of the Cup has nothing to do with this post's joke about the least anticipated game of the day. But I have to hand it to you for making this unnecessary thread worth the read.

Yeah, he didn't post it as a snarky shot at soccer and he isn't mocking the hoopla around the World Cup.

According to my informal survey of this thread, about 90% of us care about the World Cup, with a 5% margin for error.

It only happens once every four years. And don't like it, don't read it. Don't watch it. Go back to your LeBron James twitter updates and your Landon Donovan poster. Jingo racist!

Whooooosh. Lack of awareness reagarding sarcasm is even more amazing. Either way, killer first half. Great counter by Ecuador.

Over-saturation only if you're a Norte American, living an insular life, unable to see that there's a whole wide world out there into the World Cup that doesn't care what you think.

You're right, they should go back to reporting about all the football, basketball, and hockey games going on.

Breaking: Sports blog posts lots of articles and photos about a international soccer competition that happens every four years.

The game has started, yet we continue waiting all day for you to get the joke.

whoosh

Trust me. Some of it good old fashioned internet snark. I get that. Problem is. I used to have a job where I saw women rationalize this shit and I got see the end result in the legal system. Women who dated and married felons for their looks. Judges, Bailiffs, Police officers and corrections officers who fawned over…

Yeah...I don't think commenting on a hot guy who got arrested "nullifies years of feminism."

I feel like most of the compliments he's receiving online are tongue-in-cheek and in good fun. Actually, I think this sad story is way more fun than it should be.

I think you feel very uncomfortable that this guy gives you an erection every time.

And Hugo Boss's uniforms were very snappy. Doesn't change that they both have some serious societal baggage.

Not a fan of his music, particularly, but he was surprisingly witty and charming on Graham Norton. I was expecting meathead tough guy, but he's actually a shrewd businessman with a decent sense of humour! Who knew?

Yeah, but hes been shot 7 more times than she has.

Oh no :( I stopped watching after Stabler left!

Brazil isn't the third world nor a shithole and that joke wasn't funny
