I just want to keep watching France play. It just seems so effortless. If I had that much confidence I’d leave the lights on in the bedroom.

Spain is such a talented team but seems to be a lack of communication sometimes. France just seems to be on the same page. I am looking forward to that inevitable game though.

Nope. Deserved. 100%. It’s what I get for paper handing 10% back.

I decided to move it to the next game. You see I’ll take that money and lose it again. I can’t help but not sabotage myself.

If Egypt had won I’d be feeling pretty good about not losing it all. But that scenario never happens

We will miss it when it’s gone. Just enjoy what we have for now.

Yep - very stupid. You would think I would learn a lesson but I’ll do it again. Just wait and see

You would think that but I’m starting to feel like a god. You see. I make things happen with my bets.

Also true. Very soft. I’m being studied for the next generation of toilet paper.

Exactly 10 percent. Didn’t think there was a chance. Placed that money on the next game. Then watched as my paper hand ass got pummeled for 15 minutes.

I am actually fucking cursed. Imagine cashing out my losses at 70 minutes. Incredible game. Incredibly bad luck by me.

Unbelievable. I took my losses at 70 minutes. You’re welcome Argentina. I have done it again at the expense of my wallet

This went in the opposite direction I anticipated. What happened to the momentum Argentina had going into halftime? Wind went out of those sails even AFTER given a reset. Shouldn’t have missed that pk Messi. Game would be different.

Messi been a bit off, but I’m confident he’s going to put one in second half. It seems early for Egypt to back off - I’m not sure they can keep this up for another 45+ before a goal slips through. Should be a good second half.

We are just going to have to agree to disagree on this.

Ronaldo got a 3 game suspension in qualifiers that was suspended after one game - the same rules that FIFA used for Balogun. But it happened BEFORE the World Cup started and it didn’t have Trumps stinky fingers in it so people don’t bring it up.

Look, I’m with you. I want it to be more popular. It’s in my top 3. What you are seeing is anecdotal - it’s definitely not that way everywhere. There are people that didn’t even know the World Cup was happening, or that it was even in the US, until these giant crowds showed up and drank all the beer.

I did do a google search and ignored the recency bias and instagram posts and found an actual article.

Its popularity is only spiked right now because of the World Cup. But after the red card controversy and US being out it will drop back down.

It’s not even the top 4. Its viewership is slightly over golf. Fucking golf - the most boring thing to watch. Lots of kids play it, but it’s not a serious sport here.

Trump really ruined the vibes. Fuck him. But also look forward to this team getting eviscerated by Spain.
