For me it was Oscar Perez cause I too was a <6’0” goalkeeper. Playing keeper as a short guy is all about positioning, soft hands to avoid giving up rebounds, and jumping and el conejo is the best.

If you say so. Like I said, honest mistake. I don’t think there’d be anything wrong with a player born in another country playing for Germany, I just didn’t realize there weren’t any, I just knew there were a fair number of Turkish heritage and elsewhere. But then I’m used to the U.S. team which has players born…

Yeah, I may be getting a little nostalgic for 2002 by giving them a decent shot, but you never know. Got out of the groups in 2010.

Yeah someone pointed that out to me. My mistake I honestly thought Ozil was born in Turkey and moved to Germany as a kid. Don’t know where I got that idea. I was just trying to point out to the guy above that Germany is pretty diverse as a team

Personally I’m rooting for Mexico. I’m not Mexican or even of Mexican heritage but they’re always a ton of fun to watch.

Well, I’d love for it to be Mexico that gets through.

Sorry. I’m not alt-right, I don’t care where the players were born. I honestly thought there were some German players born in Turkey or elsewhere. My mistake, I honestly though Ozil and Boateng had come to Germany as kids or something and never really looked into it. I was just trying to comment on the fact that…

I just mean they tend to upset their groups more often then you might expect. You would think that would take them out of oxymoron territory but I bet you most of the projections are gonna say Germany and Sweden.

I was gonna say, you’ll probably see more foreign born players on Germany, but I haven’t counted recently. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

I really can’t call Group F apart from Germany. My gut says Sweden but Mexico and South Korea are both pretty regular surprise group survivors.

This is what I noticed with that mobile Marvel fighting game. I had it for a while, got frustrated when I wasn’t getting the characters I wanted, and boom all of a sudden I was spending money to get them, or get more chances at them. I’d say I spent around $100, maybe a little more, before I went “Holy shit what am I…

This joker has never seen the Fox and the Hound.

The usual sorts of post Arab Spring instability. Political strife, threats from terrorist cells, etc. it’s not as bad as Libya but people have been trying to get out

Didn’t I just see a video of him telling a Moroccan woman seeking asylum that she had nothing to fear in her home country and she should go back, and oh sure you can visit your parents who are in France any time you like? What your visa and passport aren’t any good? Well bad luck

Hillary did too. I’m not a big fan of hers, but credit where credit is due, she more than anyone else turned First Lady into more than a ceremonial position.

Right because it’s turned them all into morons. It’s bad for the places and the people

The Cuomos in New York, the Daleys in Chicago. Democratic machine politics that have been built largely around single family dynasties often to the detriment of the places they run?

Almost like democratic machine politics hasn’t really been good for families like the Cuomos and the Daleys. Weird...

Chris Cuomo is just the fucking worst

Curious how much they introduce the actual kid to the source material.
