Players who play in Europe for 15 years often have a better life than fringe NBA players
I would actually say that a lot of players that end up doing the thing where they go to Europe and they play for 12, 15 years and they bounce around Europe all the time, they might have a better life than a guy that makes it to the NBA. Gets paid a shitload of money and maybe doesn't get, you know, doesn't sniff a championship. Maybe you're coming off the bench... going over and playing overseas in Europe or in New Zealand or Australia. That's probably a pretty good life.

No, that wouldn't surprise me either. But I think it was probably something wrong with it and when he went out there to try to fight on it immediately, just it told him, 'no, you can't do this.'
Norway was the better team but Holland is a one-man squad
England was a much, much better team. But... that guy that didn't pass the ball to Erling Haaland, give me a break. Haaland, you are a one man team and that's okay. Although their other guy had an awesome goal later on. But Haaland is like the best striker in the world. Give him the ball if he's inside the box and he's gonna figure out a way to score.
The World Cup being expanded to 64 teams is just a monetization play by Gianni Infantino

I think I will, I'll try to do that.'
