Football. Football will win. (By football I mean soccer)
what kind of nation should we build? a good nation? a nation of plenty? a nation of muffled joy?
It's just too bad that Neymar will never walk again.
It depends on who you watch. When I watched Liverpool those first five matches, it was like watching international matches for me. The vast majority of the international matches I've seen have resulted in me falling asleep or forgetting the match was on and doing something else. I'm not even kidding! The best matches I've seen tend to be CL matches, followed by PL matches. I think following Manchester United has helped in that regard, obviously. But yeah, I've seen a chunk of World Cup matches and they do tend to be far, far better than other internationals, but I still think CL matches are better.
Of course, I'm generalising. This World Cup has been one of the better ones and if the matches suited the times I was going to be watching TV then I'd be watching them more often. Naturally, I have no regrets about watching zero matches (let alone any TV at all) while in Thailand.
The one thing the last World Cup had, though, was New Zealand. I think that made it a lot more special for me regardless of the quality.
EDIT: Your curse still counts, Psy. It counted when Uruguay hadn't gone out (because Suarez was out of the side) and it can happen now as Thiago Silva misses their next match.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Odd, as my enjoyment of a World Cup goes through the roof as soon as England get eliminated. And Euro 2008 was great because England weren't there.
RIP Neymar, RIP that one guy who got a yellow card, RIP Brazil next match
edit: wait is he like actually paralyzed? I'm hearing different things.

I have Belgium in my work's World Cup sweep
Boo Germany
Yay Belguim because I love waffles.
Alright. Here's to hoping Psy's sig doesn't pull through on Belgium. Let's beat Argentina!

Enjoyed my boy Fellaini kicking the smurf out of Messi and standing on his crotch.
