This ^^^ I'll talk louder to my shopping partner when this happens.

No phone on golf course !

Tomato sandwiches are great. My mom grew tomatoes in our back yard and we had tomatoes all the time. Plain white bread and mayo. My go to cold weather meal would be tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich. And yes, the sandwich gets dunked in the hot soup.

This is ridiculous. Let the 48 team format play out for the next 2 or 3 cycles. Then try 64. How much $$ does this "Non-profit" FIFA need anyways?

Substitutions used to be 3 until a recent change increased the number to 5 and 1 more for overtime. Way back in the day there were 0 substitutions. For tournaments each jersey has the date and the opponent sewn onto them. The Norwegian jerseys had ":England" on them. The corner post is used by the referees to see if a ball out of play is to be restarted with a goal kick or a corner kick. The post may not be moved while taking a corner kick. Unlimited substitutions would make the match last too long.

The last time USA beat Belgium in soccer was 1930. 0-6 since then. Those were the good ole days

Mexico at Azteca will be extremely difficult. 4 clean sheets for El Tri so far.

You must have really disliked the end of The Sopranos. Good luck to England today

Matches would be 3 hours in length. No thank you. Extra time rough rule of thumb. 1 minute added for a goal, 30 seconds for a substitution, 30 seconds for a card administration. Actual measured time for injury. And yes, extra time can be added during the extra time. In HS matches, the clock stops for a goal, injury and administration of a yellow or red card. When the clock hits 80 minutes, game over.

The producers of Ranch Dressing need to build production facilities in Europe. They'll make a fortune.

There can be a penalty for diving and it is called 'simulation'. It was actually called in the USA match vs Paraguay. Tim Reams was initially called for a foul, but after VAR review, simulation was called against the Paraguay striker. The restart is an Indirect free kick. I never made that call. But I'd call a diver "Greg Louganois", but they never understood that.

I thought my TV was broken when those vuvuzelas were in use. The endless droning of them was annoying.

When we went to Scotland in 2022, the locals recognized us Yanks and s-l-o-w-e-d down their speech for us. It was funny and we all had a great laugh about it. We had a wonderful time in the UK and ate fish & chips on many occasions.
