My daughters were into Rescue Bots (it's on Netflix) for a while. Now THAT's the very definition of low-rent.

I’m not exactly thrilled to see them go, even with the (much deserved) walloping they gave us in the last World Cup final. It’s always kind of bittersweet to see soccer superpowers flame out of the group stage but in such a short tournament if teams can’t produce results, there’s no way around it.

If you’re on the fence about this, GET. IT. It’s incredibly safe, silent, and you can do a ton of stuff with it. I love mine.

That’s what it was.

Good to know I wasn’t the only one expecting something about that match (rightfully mocking Neymar most likely). I know Deadspin doesn't give two shots about soccer but that was an odd editorial choice given the events of the day.

YES, thank you. That’s the appropriate take.

Brazil brought the boring this time ;-)

You can easily mistake him for a cockatoo.

Yup, it’s a very traditional, tried-and-tested way to hit the ball. The accuracy of such a precise move is iffy at best, just like you said, but the truly great players end up succeeding and scoring these impossible to defend goals.

Well, Wikipedia’s wrong - or I read the table wrong (a strong possibility). I stand corrected, thanks for pointing it out. I still agree with the video though: they’re booooring, boring, boring. I hope they go on to surprise us - every World Cup has its fair share of dumpster fire matches, and if they do well their…

Yup. Hate the man, have to applaud the skill.

I hate this dude as much as anyone can hate somebody but he truly is one of the greats. Only a handful of players can kick these curved balls so precisely (it reminded me of Ronaldinho Gaúcho in his heyday) and rise to the occasion when the team needed it.

Where The Anti-Vaxxers Selfish Impressionable Morons With No Understanding Of How Basic Science Works Are

They scored 7 goals and yet managed to win zero matches. Past performances weren’t very different, and if you follow soccer you know that teams get to the World Cup surrounded by their reputation and “aura”. Switzerland’s is just boring AF.

As a Brazilian, I second your opinion ;-)

God you’re right. Switzerland has got to be the most lifeless, boring team I’ve ever seen in action in World Cups. And it’s not even boring but efficient, they’re just... There.

I have very oily skin which is often flaky due to retinol use. Neutrogena’s hydro boost water gel is very light and gives my skin the proper amount of moisture. Vichy’s Normaderm Beautifying Anti-Acne Care is a moisturizer with salicylic acid and it also makes my skin feel moisturized but not oily. And their price…

Ah, but there’s a key difference: the inside of the Brazilian French roll is not the tastiest or best part of it, that’s the crust. I crave and miss pão francês for the crust. Bagels have no crust, and I personally crave bagels for how doughy they are. Totally different foodstuffs. I would always end up eating the…

You asked for it! Amy take the wheel!

You’re also sorely missed, boo! Sometimes I see your comments and I just feel like sending you a random Amy pic. Then I say to myself “stop it, don’t be such a weirdo!”
