Contentious C Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Well, at least the QF game is on Saturday, so my boss (English) and our staff scientist (Swedish) won't have a fistfight in the middle of the lab this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Congrats to you @The Natural . I'll just say this, Andres Escobar jokes, which I've already seen some places, will earn the jokester a few days off. I'm pissed off enough as it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks to hear Andres Escobar jokes doing the rounds. A life is bigger than just a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 I'm really hating how much this tournament seems to be sculpted to allow Russia a path to the finals. Going Vertical, anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirFozzie Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Penalties is a horrible way to decide the winner of a World Cup Knockout Game. The problem is, it's much less horrible than asking teams to play till a winner, or replays, or pulling names out of a hat/coin toss (Spain missed out on the 1954 World Cup due to drawing lots, and a 1968 European tournament SEMI-FINAL (Soviets vs Italy) was decided in a coin toss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirFozzie Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 I dunno, that's a soft PK to me. I mean the call, not the kick. The kick was DEFINITELY not a soft PK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Edwin Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 What a great performance from Griezmann today. Loved his respect for Uruguay and his Atleti teammates by not celebrating his goal and also him breaking up the little scuffle when Pogba went after Nández.
