First of all, let me clarify something. Football is football. There’s no sport called “soccer”. Football is football. The sport is played by foot, thus the name.
Okay, now I get to express some more feelings. I’ve noticed that around this time every 4 years, everyone around me becomes a World Cup fan and a football watcher. No. I will burst your bubble. You’re not.
If you don’t watch “soccer”, you don’t deserve to be the commentator of the FIFA World Cup series. Period.
Please don’t argue and discuss football history if you are one of those people. If you watched the World Cup last time, and 2002, and 1998, and as far as you could remember, that doesn’t make you a football expert, nor a fan. That makes you a bandwagon. Yes. That term doesn’t only work with switching towards winning teams, but also switching towards popular sports at the time.
Now that I let these feelings out, I can get to talk about the games and the teams.
Brazil fans, where you at ? =)
England, Spain, Germany, Italy, and all of these amazing teams we’ve been so used to, but what can I say, these teams switched up every 4 years, and you have these big teams leaving early, and me having to explain to my high school teachers why I missed specific days for these games. Let’s not talk about that now, though.
College, this is going to be tough, but I choose the World Cup over you. Yes, I did say that, professor.
Fellas, and a few ladies, let’s do this. Count down time:
