IM GONNA WATCH THE FINALS WITTY. I GOT NOT FRANCE

Witty 07-14-2018 09:51 PM

France were my pick at the beginning of the tournament, and if they win it means I have successfully picked the winner of the last 5 international tournaments...but I'd like to see Croatia do it, simply because they are a very good team, and they're the underdogs.

Of course bro. T. Henry is a legend

what is arsenal

here in america its basically the team that casual soccer fags become fans of to pretend like they know the sport.

in all honesty maybe they do. i don't. but any american that mentions arsenal just comes off as a pretentious douche. if i was to name "football" clubs arsenal comes to mind first. then manchester united? is that a thing? then countries lmao.

so what is arsenal. is it a city? or just a name of a team.

enlighten me while my indifferent interest is piqued

Those are the only 2 teams I have ever heard of

Witty 07-15-2018 07:42 AM

Arsenal is a team based in London. They used to be very good, now they are just ok.

Witty 07-15-2018 09:24 AM

Manchester United are scum lol.

But have been incredibly successful. The premier league has existed for 26 years, and United have won 13 league titles...50% of them. That tells it's own story. They have been less successful in recent years, it has been 5 years since they last won the league.

uh-oh 07-15-2018 09:28 AM

the name chelsea popped into my brain

i know things

Witty 07-15-2018 09:32 AM

Chelsea were a decent at best club who got bought by a Russian billionaire sugar daddy who gave them unlimited funds, and they became a top team.

Manchester City were an awful team...and were bought by an Arab billionaire with even more money than the Russian guy, and now they win stuff too.

Money talks.

The background of the money in soccer sounds amazing tho

I actually watched this huge documentary about Escobar flooding money into one of the world cups back in his day......I think? Maybe it was noreaga? I forget

Use to be a big fan. Use to watch Arsonel games all the time. Should be a good game today though I didn’t realize he was the assistant coach

Witty 07-15-2018 10:18 AM

Nah he's an assistant coach for Belgium for some reason lol I bet he felt awkward when France knocked Belgium out.

It just gets crazier too.. Neymar was sold for 200 million... Ronaldo is 33 and Juventus just bought him for nearly 100 million, and are paying him £500,000 a week.

Do individual soccer players really have that much impact on games????

I don't pretend to know shit about soccer but it doesn't seem like players control games like say a bron does in basketball or verlander in baseball

Do you think I'm stupid? Same bet, basketball or baseball. You wouldn't take that.
