No, I’m not watching. It seems to me that every game has ended in a tie! So, no one is eliminated? How is this interesting? How is this fun? Tie?

I thought it was funny that hard times had the us vs Iran game on every tv and blasting the sound from it through the sound system for what amounted to an empty house. They should've run a special on potatriotots and freedom fries or was nobody going to gaff anyway?

Everyone knew the US got lucky to make it to the round of 16 in the first place - yawnfest.
I've been finding it very hard to watch shit like the world cup or olympics anymore - find myself thinking about the corruption and abuse of the athletes more than the competition itself.
Hard to watch the Bejing Olympics without thinking about the brutal regime going on in the background and how restricted anyone was from mentioning it - felt like Berlin in the 1930's, when you couldn't mention what Hitler was doing to the jews behind the scenes.
And even in 'civilized' countries like Japan, Canada and England, the amount of waste and disregard for people's lives was brutal - Vancouver cleared out whole swatches of low-income housing and homeless encampments so they'd look picture perfect to the world. So did England. And promises were made that the facilities would be open to all afterwards, and the Olympic villages would become affordable housing that never happened. But lots of people and politicians got rich, you can guarantee that for sure.
