Pssshhhh please, I come from an entire region where they keep saying they’re gonna “rise again.”

Would have been better if he had missed and hit Ed Sheerhan

Show some goddamned respect

Guy here. No hugging. Whatsoever.

It’s one of those things that is likely informed by good intelligence. But to your point, it is merely theater when we’re being “protected” by the TSA, who is woefully ineffective.

These are....creepy.

You are one of the laziest sports “journalists” in recent memory.

Being a great athlete is 10% of being a great soccer player. Soccer is so much more about technical refinement than raw talent and athleticism.

Intentional trolling is not journalism.

Does that mean we can start calling Mexico a middling soccer nation then? Because while their entire population actually cares about soccer, their national team has achieved exactly the same as the US, arguably we’ve achieved more.

Population has nothing to do with soccer success. Uruguay has only about 3.5 million people, and is one of the best in the world. Russia has 145 million people and they suck at soccer. Portugal has an amazing team with a population around 10.5 million. China and India each have over a BILLION people and also suck…

No they don’t. They barely have any history here in NYC. People remember Pele. That’s it.

Did those movies cost over $200 million to make, have a Hollywood a-list veteran, and were supposed to be a key part of a studio’s attempt to make a mega-franchise?

Old School came out 14 years ago. Jozy was 13. A large amount of soccer fans in this country that grew up watching him are likely pretty young. By the time they got to college, they probably hadn’t ever heard of Luke Wilson.

Ouch! Watch out people, this edge is sharp! You’ll cut yourself if you get too close.

Maybe, but having Obama for 8 years only made them more incensed as well. There’s no winning with them.

My biggest hope of course is that he becomes an all-star player for the NY Giants and Francesca has to interview him.

But but...he’s in great shape! And he’s got pace!

What is even the point of your 2nd sentence?

Regular reddit, like r/pics, r/funny, r/technology, etc are pretty chill. It’s those “other” subreddits where it starts to get hairy.
