Of course it does. Senegal's odds at advancement definitely go down without him in on the pitch. Those odds are inversely proportional to the odds of the others in the group to advance. One would think that Senegal still has more talent than Qatar, but Ecuador could be the surprise beneficiary here. Abdou Diallo and Kalidou Koulibaly are better than anything Qatar can throw at them IMO. But who will score the goals?
No worries - in the executive boxes they'll still have beer, spirits, and sommelier catered wines for the rich and FIFA members.
Qatar bans sale of beer at World Cup stadiums in about-face
Qatar has banned the sale of beer at World Cup stadiums. It was a sudden U-turn on the deal the conservative Muslim emirate made to secure the soccer tournament only two days before the opening game.apnews.com
I feel responsible in a very small way.
Will be fascinating to see what happens and how many get jail time.
How many times have we said this about Italy in group play and they always seemed to squeak into the next round?
It's a **** move, mostly. For those who follow this stuff, though, it really cements how corrupt FIFA is.
Yeah, until they cut you off at 4 beers, which was the max anyway. Of course, to enjoy yourself you were always going to have to willfully ignore the black clad morality police just wandering aimlessly through the crowd looking for who knows what.
I don't think Italy advances out of their group this time. Just too tough.
Agreed, but their midfielders are still quality. Big Benz is gonna get his cup.
Yeah. I like beer too. Alcohol sales were banned at Champions League for years and you can only drink on the concourse in England. It's annoying, just isn't in my top things bad about the Qatar World Cup list.
Still got feel bad for our supporters in Qatar who have to watch the USMNT sober.
I remember Bradley's lackadaisical defending on their first goal. It was infuriating how often that squad gave up uncontested shots from around the top of the 18.
Get out.
Wow, I've never seen it from that side of the field so i was confused onw hat goal it was lol.
The vuvuzelas should've helped jog your memory lol.
Pretty awesome - never seen that one. In the category of hype videos this is the best video I've seen compiled of that and stands as a good blood pumper for Monday.
I have box coming tomorrow, loading up the book with my son tonight from random packs. Got a blue Neymar, but nothing super rare yet. I'll be down for trades by next weekend. Who else is doing a book?
Both my kids have a book. We bought them in Colombia so they are the south American edition. I think there are fewer rare cards in those. The stickers have no border and the background is orange. There are only 638 stickers to collect instead of 670 in the blue edition.
No dog in the fight, but IDK who is more corrupt - FIFA or the Olympic committee. It doesn’t surprise me that Qatar did this.
) and just want to see some entertaining games.
I can't believe I've never seen that. It's perfect.
We went 20 years ago. Even then it was super American...TGIFs, Starbucks and tons of bars/clubs. It's a party there and it's not a secret. We also have a lot of gay friends who go for work and pleasure...not like Pakistan where they have to hide it (travelling for work)...or at least hide it as much.
That’s commitment. Bought and paid for. Watching the fifa documentary, it was amazing to me how committed to their hypocrisy the main characters were/are. The qutari dude was amazing. The acting and absolute conviction was impressive. Dude deserves all the Oscars.
That was cringeworthy. He forgot that he feels rich from all the bribes.

I was going to mention this also. I’m not sire you want to mention you feel gay in Qatar. The off the field stuff at this tourney will overshadow the play.
