The World Cup was supposed to be messi's tournament, but he could win it a second time, in fact he had no presence in the match until the last 5 minutes. What an overrated player.

But Ronaldo on the other hand shined as bright as the brightest sun in the universe when it came to his tournament, UEFA Champions League. He won it 5 times and among those 5 times, 3 times were back to back.

Unlike Messi, Ronaldo ended his career as the UCL top scorer as well as the top assist provider. Messi could never accomplish such a feat with 3 amazing Argentina teams. What a shame, what a sham.

Germany needs to be more like France and start developing African players instead of giving opportunity to whites, Blacks are more athletic and better at football, if they don't they will end up with like Italy and England. Open the borders now!

So, if your government discriminates against our tech companies by unfairly taxing them, then remember we also got our "economic nuclear button".

What's DSAs opinion of decolonizing New Caledonia, Greenland and French Guiana from European Imperialism.

SoFi Stadium is obviously a closed roof stadium and thus would be inadequate to promote US militarism so instead they went for the outdated MetLife Stadium.

Mark my words, the military flyover in the World Cup Final will be the most grotesque display of militarism.

Every Azteca defense boils down to the same two things. Two World Cup finals and Maradona's handball. Fine, those happened there. But that's a coincidence of scheduling, not something the stadium did. You could swap in any other big stadium from that era and the moments would've happened just the same.

What actually matters is what it's like to be in the building. Azteca is an old, outdated stadium. The concourses, the seating, the whole layout feels like what it is, something from the 60s that's been patched up over and over instead of built right the first time.

Mercedes Benz Stadium just works better as a building. The roof opens and closes so weather's never an issue. The video board is massive and it's overall a better stadium.

I get that "it's old and stuff happened there" feels like it should count for something. But that's nostalgia talking, not an actual case for the stadium itself.
