cougarbart Intervention Needed

Yup. It’s a game, not a war.

Messi in the WC is about as close as anything in sports comes to making me care like I do for BYU. A sport that is irrelevant in the US isn’t going to force me into some obligatory rooting scenario. In 4 years if they play again and Messi is done, it’s a no-brainer for the US. I probably wouldn’t give 2 craps about the WC if not for serving in Argentina so yeah.

We all already knew you were an idiot, but thanks for confirming it to all.

Got to get through Netherlands first, and who knows maybe Australia upsets

I like Messi and all, but no.

I couldn't care less about Messi, and still no.

It’s a game bro

cougarbart

It's a sport. Phase 10 and Mancala are games.

reagan21

Oh stop. Messi's legacy won't be affected either way.

It could be Jimmer playing for Argentina and I'd still not root for them to beat the U.S.

Yeah. No need to be sacrilegious.

Can you imagine if Jimmer would have played soccer instead?!?!?!?

How far out onto the pitch is Jimmer Range?

I’d prefer Pulisic and Co. get a World Cup.

If it’s BYU vs Alabama, I gotta pull for Saban. Him getting a natty trumps my school loyalty.

I think soccer is stupid and even I think your take sucks

Well I guess in a couple of years you can watch Messi playing for LA Galaxy.

Don't be a doofus. Messi isn't going to win a World Cup. And that's OK. He can

I’ve watched Messi play way more than the US

cougarbart

11/30/22 2:17pm

The fact you are uninformed about soccer doesn't support your position.

Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia. America lost to no one. Suck it!
