2026 FIFA World Cup megathread (6 Viewers)

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

I don't know what the appropriate number of comedy sketches starring Rio Ferdinand is, but I'm pretty sure it's less than two.

 

[QuizGuy66]

The funniest thing is all the extra time is not larded with product placements. I mean that would be understandable.

Anyway rooting hard for a draw screw up fiasco at this point

-QG

 

[Sammy3469]

Again...who knew Rio could act.

 

[Eephus]

oh no

 

[Capella]

this absolutely has to be what hell is like.

 

[bagger]

popcorn is more Pot 2 for me.

 

[NewlyRetired]

This is truly impressive

It shouldn't be that hard...everyone is dying to find out which teams are in which groups

Pick the darn balls and show some cool highlights of each team during WC qualifying and everyone would be happy

I mean 1 hour total and every would love it.

This, what ever the hell this is, is non stop cringe. Now we got kids explaining the rules that only QuizGuy understands

 

[QuizGuy66]

Oooh Penn and Teller show up at the end and make all the ping pong balls disappear. Perfect!
-QG

 

[Sleestak]

Watch this to kill time and regain the love of the game:

Brazil 1982

 

[QuizGuy66]

I approve of the fact that they are making this more confusing
-QG

 

[Sammy3469]

Rio better have this Harry Potter stick for the real draw

 

[bagger]

If an owl comes in to drop off the ping pong balls to the kid this will all be worth it.

 

[NewlyRetired]

the best part about this is that at least 50 different people must have signed off on this disaster thinking "people are going to love this"

Being handed an envelope helps to get things signed off.

 

[NewlyRetired]

95% of the audience is "who the **** is Aaron Judge"

 

[Sleestak]

Brady - of course

 

[B Maverick]

And WTF do Brady, Shaq, Gretzky and Judge have to do with all this?

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Give me 20 minutes and the Muppets and I will deliver you the greatest draw of all time.

 

[Sand]

Shaq is a national treasure.

 

[QuizGuy66]

Funeral suits. Very appropriate.

Swedish Chef Pot 1.

 

[QuizGuy66]

Mickelson wasn't available
-QG

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

We all tuned in to hear Shaq mumble unfunny jokes. Here we go.

 

[El Floppo]

just getting here...so I assume the draw is about done.




stop!

Fergie time!

duh, duh, duh, duh... duh duh... duh duh.. .can't watch this!

 

[QuizGuy66]

Hart got a promo in for his show. Bar is raised for Shaq to get his product placements in.

[NewlyRetired]

And WTF do Brady, Shaq, Gretzky and Judge have to do with all this?

They seem to have chosen a huge name from each of the big American based sports. Brady is the only one with a tie to the sport.

 

[Sleestak]

3 of these teams are not like the others...

 

[QuizGuy66]

We all tuned in to hear Shaq mumble unfunny jokes. Here we go.

Lucky 13 was a flawed game show premise and he was terrible as host but I still miss it.
-QG

 

[Eephus]

Rehearsals?

 

[QuizGuy66]

All that and they cannot announce the names of the countries lol.
-QG

 

[B Maverick]

Rehearsals?

Nah, that would mean less money in other envelopes...

 

[NewlyRetired]

1:27 before we actually started

 

[QuizGuy66]

FINALLY A PRODUCT PLACEMENT!
-QG

 

[TLEF316]

Even shaq's shenanigans can't save this

 

[Eephus]

mingle the balls Tom

 

[NewlyRetired]

Oh come on, no shot of Gisele for Brady drawing Brazil?

 

[GregR]

Actual drawing started.

 

[QuizGuy66]

Okay a top 4 team has to be in group L
-QG

 

[GregR]

Who are teams in pots 2, 3 and 4 to hope to avoid?

 

[QuizGuy66]

And a top 4 team to I
-QG

 

[B Maverick]

The 3 times runner up. OUCH

 

[NewlyRetired]

I still don't understand why we have to wait until tomorrow for the matchups? They are placing the teams in slots 1/2/3/4 today so we should know every game today.

 

[QuizGuy66]

So England or France in I
-QG

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Rio is just such a funny choice as MC.

 

[Sleestak]

I would have glued one of those balls shut

 

[QuizGuy66]

The other of france and England in K

L for not France/england

-QG

 

[QuizGuy66]

England L
Portugal K
Oops
-QG

 

[B Maverick]

I would have glued one of those balls shut

That's what she said?

 

[NewlyRetired]

Who are teams in pots 2, 3 and 4 to hope to avoid?

Every team in the Group A is hard except for the 3 hosts. Everyone wants to draw one of the 3 hosts

 

[zoobird]

I still don't understand why we have to wait until tomorrow for the matchups? They are placing the teams in slots 1/2/3/4 today so we should know every game today.

Amazingly, I still don't 100% trust that anyone knows if this is the case or not. I'll be pissed if it turns out that we've known all along which games would be the 1 vs. 2 match-ups and just didn't realize it.
