June 18, 20188 yr Soccer is growing on me. There international component is so amazing, and the world cup is a great example of this. Mexico already beat Germany. Russia has the easiest pool in the history of pools. It was announced the tournament is coming to the US Mexico and Canada in 2026... so hopefully we qualify.
June 19, 20188 yr I’m surprised no one started a thread here before now. I haven’t watched any of the games, but was thrilled Mexico beat Germany ... I always like seeing the ‘under dog’ win. Hope there is more of that.
June 19, 20188 yr I'd certainly have the TV on, if it were over the air....Can’t one watch online? I thought you could in the past. There have been watch parties in my neighborhood.
June 19, 20188 yr Can’t one watch online? I thought you could in the past. There have been watch parties in my neighborhood.That would require me to know people ... And for those people to like me....
June 19, 20188 yr That would require me to know people ... And for those people to like me....The watch parties in my neighborhood were at neighborhood bars. You could just go and hang.
June 19, 20188 yr Author Is it? I looked a couple times. I'll keep trying! Thanks.They are early in the day because it's in Russia. Games Bounce between FS1 and fox.
June 19, 20188 yr This tournament has been full of awesome games so far. With my Azzurri failing to qualify, I thought i’d just pass on the whole deal, but it’s been great. Go Mexico!
June 20, 20188 yr I love World Cup, but I'm less enthusaied this time with the US failing to qualify.

It was announced the tournament is coming to the US Mexico and Canada in 2026... so hopefully we qualify.The USA will get an automatic berth and early indications are all three host countries likely will. The tournament is expanding to 48 teams by 2026, so that likely makes it a lot more feasible. It certainly helps Canada much more than the other two, lol.
June 22, 20188 yr I don't know much about soccer but it's cool that it's coming here in 2026 - I'd go to one of those games, seems like a fun atmosphere.
June 23, 20188 yr Author Anyone watch that comeback by Germany today? Fun game to watch. I really enjoy the world cup games. Germany definitely deserved that win.
June 29, 20188 yr Here we go, Belgium wins the final group game. Knockout stage is next. Who do you got? Seems to me Croatia has the clearest path.
July 11, 20188 yr Here we go, Belgium wins the final group game. Knockout stage is next. Who do you got? Seems to me Croatia has the clearest path.Been telling everyone that will listen that Croatia was my dark horse. However, now that they’re up against England, and have just slogged through two extra time games and penalties, I think “it’s coming home” for England, who have always been my team. That’s a full on jinx, obviously. Side note: if you want to see some of the best unintentional humor since the Super Bowl shuffle, check out the videos for the English teams over the years, with a special shout out to New Order’s video for the 1990 World Cup. It may be the worst video on the most levels in the history of music videos.
July 13, 20188 yr England got what it deserved. They didn't even try to score most of that gameThey also failed to put the game away in the first half. It should have been at least 2-0 at halftime. Harry Kane will be having nightmares about his misses.
