Any podcast recommendations for the WC? Overcast gave me The Totally Football Show and The Football Ramble. Men in Blazers limited episodes.

The Guardian Football Weekly (daily during the WC). It's similar to the Totally Football Show, but a little more light hearted.

Hahah there is also some context here. Most of those on the Totally Show used to be the Football Weekly show, esp James Richardson. They started a breakaway company at the start of last season. I jumped ship too - enjoy the Totally show much more.

Ha, yeah. I like both, personally. FW is probably a little easier for a non-hardcore soccer fan to get into. It's a little less in-depth, funnier, and takes itself a lot less seriously. Gun to my head, I like FW better, but they're both really good.

Yeah agree that it is a matter of taste. It's a bit I love Jimbo and don't have time in the week for The Game, FW and Totally show.

Poor performance by Croatia, but I think they have so much quality, they could easily make the final , and I wouldn't bet against them if they did.


One side of the bracket is way open now that Spain is out. You got Russia vs Croatia in a quarter, and Sweden, Switzerland, Colombia or England joining them. 

On the other side there's Uruguay, France, Brazil, Mexico, Belgium and Japan. Certainly a stronger bracket, but there can still be upsets.

Neymar such a spoiled whiny brat. Selfish player. Not a fan at all. Needs to get slapped around a bit.

I can't stand this crap.  It is especially egregious coming so soon after the Stanley Cup.

Cleveland Hi-Bore driver, Maltby 5 wood, Maltby hybrid, Maltby irons and wedges (23 to 50) Vokey 59/07, Cleveland Niblick (LH-42), and a Maltby mallet putter.                                                                                                                                                 "When the going gets tough...it's tough to get going."

I don’t know anything about hockey but soccer seems to be the only sport where the professional level is a much worse example of integrity and sportsmanship. I played in premier leagues and then college and this nonsense never went on. The blatant lying/cheating ...such a shame.

We were just discussing this at work.  They need to take better advantage of their VAR in that situation.  The nonsense isn’t going to stop unless there are repercussions for it.  As it stands he was rewarded for it because they checked the replay for a foul, when they found none, they just played on.  (As an aside, I was very disappointed in the announcers not only not calling him out but actually thinking the guy deserves a red card)

What is like to see if the booth telling the ref β€œthere wasn’t a foul there in our opinion, but you should look at the replay and determine if you think Neymar deserves a yellow for diving (or whatever they call it).

Start punishing that via replay and it’ll get curved real quick.

As long as its not being punished, it will keep happening. Neymar will never have me as a fan with that attitude, but that doesn't matter to him. He's there to win matches and by diving and faking he may increase those chances. The Brazilian supporters has noticed too, but they'd rather have a Brazil winning with acting than not winning at all.

Some countries and players are a lot worse than others, and I can't say I've seen the majority of the teams like that, which is a good thing.

It’s a shame because my 7yr old is just getting into soccer..and his mom as well (watching) and as they’ve watched they’ve both been like, β€œwhat’s this nonsense with faking an injury....or are these pros all just a bunch of pansies?” So yeah, from another post when someone said how awful it is when Tiger curses...I couldn’t care less...just a chuckle...but watching professional athletes act like this is ridiculous.

This question comes up every World Cup. 

I've seen some performances this year that wouldn't cut it at a grade-school talent show. Gotta love the death roll, where the player hits the ground and then rolls four or five times more than is necessary. .

As silly and over the top as it looks, flopping and acting are simply a part of the game for much of the world. It's pretty hard to reconcile with American sporting values.

Yeah...wow.

From what I saw, Belgium dominated them in the first half...but then again, Japan beat my country (Colombia) in the first round.
