For an entire month every four years, the FIFA World Cup dominates the sporting spotlight. And for both diehard or fair-weather soccer fans cheering on their country (or another one if theirs didn’t make the cut like the US men’s team), it’s an electrifying four weeks.

Here’s what you need to know about the World Cup 2018:

And ties in soccer are only in the Group Stage, they go to OT in the knockout stages.

Rooting for Russia today. Cant stand the Saudis...

As usual I think it will come down to Germany / Brasil / Argentina / and question mark in the end.

Then go watch the NFL. That all-American display of patriotism.

Or you can try to cheer on our national team. Wont ki you.

Or you can try to cheer on our national team.

And their fag jerseys.

You know, that's not a bad idea! I still consider Deutschland my second home, as I lived in Traben-Trarbach over four years (77-81). Sadly, I've forgotten most of the German I learned during that time.

Next summer will be the 40th anniversary of one of the greatest summers of my life, where I was on temporary assignment to the anti-aircraft range at Todendorf.

Their wha?

Dude, ok. You get you FR virtue signal gold medal.

Just dont get bent out of shape when the left cramps all over something you rather enjoy.

[dfwgator]

You approve of this?

Goal Russia!!!!!!

At least you don’t have to suffer knowing Michael Bradley’s game. If he plays in the 2022 WC, please shoot me.

I don’t get this notion that a draw is a reward, it’s dropping two points essentially. It now takes three draws to equal one win.

Each team gets one point for a draw, as opposed to zero points for a loss. Therefore, the one point for a draw is a reward for not losing. In my opinion, both teams to a draw are losers and neither should get a point.

You should have an issue with the NFL and NHL which award overtime wins the same as a regulation win. Ditto for College Football, they should go to a points system where a Regulation Win counts more than an overtime win.

An overtime win is still a win and should be treated as such just like an overtime win in soccer.

[dfwgator]

So a team that wins all their games in regulation should be considered equal with a team that had to go to overtime to win some of their games?

It’s based on speed and accuracy. It’s called practical shooting as most gunfights between perps and cops are at the distance used. There are also farther distances.

I actually just wanted to show animated shooting. I have shot These type matches. They are not for me. I tend to take my time and try to put bullets into the same holes as previous bullets I have shot.

The ONLY way I would watch the World Cup is if they tied me to a chair and glued my eyes open, like something out of a Clockwork Orange.

I would think practice at 10 meters would be sufficient...............

[EEGator]

Thank you for your awesome addition to this thread.

[Reno89519]

Nah, I think I will go to the range.

[Red Badger]

I prefer Crescent Wrenches at 10 paces................................

^Why I’m not watching, despite being a fan of soccer and the WC in particular. That and no USA.
