[QUOTE="RickBB, post: 1820032, member: 244628"] I don’t think I’ve ever commented outside of the basketball forum but here goes. Even though I played a couple years of soccer as a kid in the early 80s, I’d typically been of the “soccer is boring” until my kid starting playing and I started coaching her. Which led to countless games of FIFA on PlayStation so I could teach her what offsides was. Since then, I’ll regularly watch Premier League games and international Friendlies whenever that are one. I’m excited about the games, but I can’t wait to see the covers ups that occur when things don’t go as planned with thinking you can keep thousands of crazed soccer fans happy when drinking is such a part of their match routine. Already videos out of foreign press just doing a report and some guy comes along and shuts it down with the guy saying “you invited the world to your country. We have all the credentials to film here.” I just think as the tournament goes, it’ll be a powder keg waiting to explode. [/QUOTE]
