bankroll at $900, not interested in playing today's game. feel the game can go either way. going to play france to advance tomorrow.

not idiotic to me at all. different positions call for different skill-sets and you have 10 outfield players + 1 'keeper and it's napoleon, on a hill, deploying his forces of different skill-sets (cavalry, canon, infantry, grenadiers) and telling them when and where to attack and defend and counter.

as far as the $$ - decent tournament, so far. the last playing day: took a chance on england, failed. played heavy favorite portugal against morocco and that killed the bankroll.

that's great. a degenerate because one bets the world cup? betting on the world cup and national leagues has been legal in europe for decades. it's a national pastime in england; pink floyd 'money'. you don't understand the sport, you lump everyone in with yourself - if you bet it, you are a degenerate? you're right, if you don't understand a sport, why bet on it?

You wear cargo shorts? What the fuck is wrong with you?

I've bet Argentina as well at -220 to qualify (whether that's in regulation, extra time, or PKs). That's more emotion because I'd like to see Messi win a Cup. For whatever reason, I haven't been impressed watching France that last few games. Mbappe is amazing and fun but I wouldn't be surprised with Morocco winning tomorrow. I'm just a novice soccer fan though.

France racistly took that game from Morocco.

Wasn't all that impressed with Argentina in the tournament until the semifinal. They did have something like a 36 game unbeaten streak before the loss to Saudi Arabia, so it wasn't like they limped into the tournament. They almost blew a 2 goal lead to Australia and did blow a 2 goal lead to the Dutch. But they seemed to put it together against Croatia and fate (or FIFA, take your pick) appears to favor them.

France appears leaky on the defensive side and losing Kante to injury for this tournament could haunt the French against Messi. While I respect Messi the player I just can't cheer for him. His petulant actions during and after the Dutch game didn't help any, in my eyes. But while I will cheer for France I think Argentina takes it 2-1

I thought this tournament was going to be a shit show, but the play on the field has been mostly entertaining. And now we have a dream matchup for the Final.

Messi vs Mbappe!



As one of the longest running Messi fans in the entire world I am definitely rooting for Messi.

I hope my once in a lifetime dog Lionel who passed away in 2018 is watching the game up in doggie heaven as he cheers on his namesake.

That's how long I've been a Messi fan. Named my dog after him when I got him in 2005. Messi is 35 years old now so do the math. He was 17 when I discovered and started grooming him.

He was 17 when I discovered and started grooming him.

thank Christ the ass-kissing of morocco will end. if bayern sign bounou of morocco, the worst german partnership since italy was their junior partner during the war. i don't believe it for one second and i'll bet that derek rae doesn't either - but, you MUST compliment morocco and it's players at all times. hakimi, the best right back at the world cup? right. he failed miserably on one vital cross, where he had an unmarked teammate in the 6 yard box. hakimi put the cross 2 yards behind him. world-class right backs don't put that cross 2 yards behind the CF's head. expert ally wagner didn't break down that massive fail.

the referee was poor, 100% penalty for croatia not whistled, not even looked at. i hope psychologically scarred red-head infantino can add that to his "best ever world cup".

just really sick of fifa's and fox's patronage of morocco. they are decent, they are not 1982 brazil.

thanks to croatia and the over, picked up a cool $1k and on to the final. bankroll at $2.5k.

Who cares about Morocco. It’s like Chicago fans being convinced Joe Buck hates them.

I’ve been playing Football Manager since 98 when it was still called Championship Manager and just text, although I don’t feel I need to get it new every year.
