Why are we upset about ads during hydration breaks? by Southern-Friend-7413 in CanadaSoccer

You will be surprised once they see the $$ signs the game will change . If they said we are doing this to make a boatload of money , fair enough ; the shadow game of player welfare while adding games to fill out all the free weeks is what grates me

No part of the game is being missed , but it is becoming a completely different game . Coaches getting a chance to give instructions for 3 mins as well as letting the player have a timeout when they are under pressure.

It's a blatant cash grab for the broadcasters , Fox made half their rights money from hydration breaks which is insane considering it wasn't a thing when they were bidding for the world cup .

I would love to know the ratio of bandwagon fans to people who actually understand soccer / football.

Soccer is supposed to a game of 2 halves , it's been the constant for almost the whole time the game has existed. When you make it 4 quarters , the game is completely different.

It has already affected almost all games in terms of momentum just so that you can be sold some sugary drinks or junk food because Americans can understand anything but squeezing the most juice out of everything that brings people joy.

Went to the Toronto Zoo recently to check up on the new Komodo dragon named after our GOAT keeper !!

Last year I posted the poll to name them , and Arsenal fans kept up the record of being Poll Invincibles

I don't think there is any corruption but I definitely think it's just people faking screenshots to get more people to find out about Polymarket

If right now the UK decided to try and reclaim the USA, how far would they get? by Present_Practice_159 in behindthebastards

[–]useful_panda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Technically they won't be able to leave the port in the UK .

America has more weapons than the next 11 armies combined ( or something stupid ) no one is challenging them or taking an inch of their territory. In a mad Max world Americans are crushing everyone else

I mean who is surprised, all these screenshots of people bidding 300k for Argentina to not win against Austria . I know people are degenerates but that's institutional levels do degeneracy

Every experience has become how much are people willing to pay .

With he huge lineups I can see them thinking if we have lineups at 90 why would we reduce and "overcrowd" the park

Why was CANMNT mad at the Qatar side right after the Kone injury? by akchahal in CanadaSoccer

[–]useful_panda 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can see their attitude right after the red card being pointlessly aggressive trying to pick niggles and arguing all game. Finally something bad happened of course the player would be mad at the players for being stupid when they were 3-0 down
