  why would anyone spend money on a ticket to a #USMNT game? they couldnt get a draw against trinidad and tobago and missed the world cup lmao, if you support them financially you're encouraging failure

  I feel #blessed for my first American-free WC. Hope the MLS folds soon.

  "Just a couple of weeks after Brazil legend Romario suggested to Gabriel Jesus that he has 'a lot of sex' before the World Cup next month, Germany manager Joachim Low has taken the complete opposite route."
  
  I like my Krauts this year.

  Only a few more days. 2014 was my year of poverty and also the one time I actually watched a lot of the World Cup because that's what poor people do. Kick a ball in the dirt then watch pros kick a ball on grass. Exciting stuff
  
  Mexico got robbed, the US lost and it was like Nazi Germany or Holland all over again

  Flying over Monday...will be there for basically the entire Group stage. Should be fun, but don’t think it’s going to compare to Brazil...that was a bit nuts.
  
  I’ve bet on the Nazis in my pool...

  Just noticed Australia, Senegal and Egypt all made it as well. Japan too. This is fucking embarrassing.

  Tunisia didn't have to play a ranked Trinidad and Tobago.

  Betting on Germany was a bad idea. Our inability to win in Russia is well-documented.

  Senegal and Egypt are both pretty damn good. Japan, as well.
  
  In fact, they all have at least one player that would be the best player on our team.
  
  If the US had to qualify out of Europe, they would almost never make the tournament. The fact that they missed out of one of the weakest regions is very satisfying to someone who hates American soccer fans.
