imagine you live in a minority filled shithole with nothing to look forward to but sports, and the only shot you had at winning a championship were taken away from you
That's what being a Bay Area sports fan is like
Why don't people mention us as a tortured sports area? People pity places like Buffalo or Cleveland before this year but not us.
What the fuck is up with that? It's not like our lives are great either. Most of us only have sports

Tomlin 2-Run dinger, cause you gotta start the game right
At least the Cavs can win championships
Is this the most boring tournament of all time?
>>68741457
Possibly. We'll have to wait until it's over before concluding if it's worse than South Africa 2010.
The most enjoyable game so far has been a 0-0 draw between Portugal and Austria.
This format has been a disaster.

Short answer
>yes
Long answer
>pretty much
This tournament is ruined due to the expansion from 16 to 24 teams. Actually the smaller nations play with a lot of heart and dedication while the established teams seem settled with a fucking 2nd or even 3rd place. There haven't been a single team with a clinical finisher up front, which doesn't provide any hope for exciting finals either. World Cups are usually very solid tho. Can't...

There is nothing wrong with both.
Do you work for buzzfeed OP ?
May I seriously, unironically propose getting rid of the offside rule?
This sport used to be madly entertaining and magical. Let's face it, it became the most popular sport on the planet because of spectacular solo runs and dribbles, beautiful goals, magical players etc.
Right now it's practically a completely different sport. Apart from just a few players there's no creativity, no imagination, inspiration, improsivation, spark, magic anymore. Football looks like chess combined with trench warfare now.
I believe that a MASSIVE change of game...

Here's an idea- kill yourself.

Goals wouldnt mean shit then
>>68739500
Each team is allowed to add 1 player at any time for a 10min period once a match
So, they're still #1 right?
'16 Cavs
Saved by the Cavs

Not really. Even if they pulled it out they had a bad postseason. They were a completely different team the last two series from the regular season.
Aaron Ramsay has scored a goal

Reminder that this was rigged.
Look at the date on this video. This nigga called it before it started.

He even called the exact result game by game before it even happened.

And Stephen Curry's wife literally admitted that it was rigged on twitter (pic related).
Shut the fuck up faggot. They choked. That's it. Quit trying to pull some conspiracy out of your ass and take the L with some dignity.

hey
Coming home lads
Am I the only one who thinks that Portugal and England are both very good? And by very good I mean top 5 at the tournament.
Both of them created a tons of chances going forward and allowed very little on the other end while being fucked over by finishing. If the inevitable regression to the mean in this regard hits soon (you can't expect Donaldo to keep missing 4 sitters and a penalty every game), then they will be real threats to win the entire thing.
I'm unironically considering putting money on Portugal going to the semis at 11/2 and I'd do the same for England but they're likely to get refballed out by the hosts in the QFs.
At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the scoreline. You can have all the possession, set-pieces, chances etc. in the world, but if you can't finish then you're not going to get any results. In both our cases, we played against low-rank teams, we'll get demolished when we have to face teams that are actually good.
We've played more positively than France (carried by Payet) and Germany against decent opponents, but regardless we should be putting our chances away. Hopefully when we come up against teams who aren't just playing to draw we can catch them on the counter, something that's hard to do against teams like Slovakia who park the bus for 90 minutes straight.

Nice semen slurping sport you got here, yuros
>Team A beats Team B
>Team B wins the group
Kek, europoors.
That's it, we've fucking blown it. Could have been Hungary>Belgium>semi final and now we will most likely face France in the QF, then Germany in the semi final if we miraculously beat them.

give it up switzerland is gonna win it
