2022 World Cup

The last few minutes of the Iran game was as heart stopping as any sports event I’ve seen recently.

I left work early and was at Proper 21 for the game. The air in the room noticeably changed as we all inhaled and then yelled at the same moments.

Hope he recovers quickly without any complications.

I suspect the press release was a bit euphemistic. His nuts could be softball size right now.

I'm one of the minority of Chelsea fans who really rate Pulisic and wish we would start him more often at club level instead of just using him as a super-sub. He always leaves it all out there on the field.

Thankfully Christian didn't pulladick.

France loses.

France loses.

I'm guessing they didn't try very hard as they had already won the group.

My Office Pool bracket is falling apart, though. Who had Australia advancing? Also thought Ecuador was going through. Ugh.

 

[cross22]

Yeah France was resting their top players.

 

[beargonefishing]

Does anyone else hear "Ecuador, dun dun dananand dun dun" in their head every f-ing time you hear the name?
