Don’t know if I’m supporting Morocco at the World Cup or not. 
 

I prefer having teams I’m rooting for and against.  Neutral I want to avoid.  
 

im neutral on Norway. I want to be pro Morocco but I might be neutral.

I think it’s best to wait until you’re actually watching the games to decide. I’m already thinking I’ll support Iran but they might actually be a bunch of cheats

True.

Look just because we're launching missiles at Iran for no reason doesn't mean they aren't also a horrific tyrannical theocracy.

 

I would only root for Iran against the US, basically.

Brazil going into a World Cup without a rightback feels off. That being said, very happy to see Ederson getting a chance.

Absolutely sickening this mind, it should’ve been near the Sweden training camp.

I didn’t realize that the Leao red card was in a game vs Chile. Portugal and Chile in a mass brawl - it’s truly World Cup time.

Not being funny like, and it's terribly sad that it happens, but is this even news? I say that as a resident/immigrant/expat (however you wanna phrase it).

 

There are sites that report statistics for mass shootings (one example), and it shows there have already been 4 mass shootings since including one with 12 injuries and another with a death. It's madness like and pretty depressing if you ponder too long, but unless The Athletic is trying to broach a fairly deeper systemic sociopolitical topic than their standard fair I wouldn't really consider it newsworthy even if it happened in the same zip code as the England training camp.
