Neymar's flopping is actually a profile in courage and bravery
I think it's so harsh on Neymar. I mean, I see him as a profiling courage and bravery. I just see the pain, the agony, I mean, just the savage damage that is done to his body... he loses limbs in the game... Neymar gets up when he's broken, had his leg broken, and he says, don't worry, lads, I'm going to brush this off.

I'm being totally honest when I say that I think [Jeff Fisher] will be a good announcer, and here's why. The best announcers don't really say shit.

It was erotic. Watching this team... we've always had the collective doginess, you know, we've been like a collective fist. But this though, it was stunning. I can't quite understand where it came from. The goals were ecstatic. The team play was transcendent. It was like Caleb Williams was playing and suddenly we don't fear the Packers.
Portugal is completely capable of winning the World Cup, but Cristiano Ronaldo is holding them back.
They can win this, they can win this tournament. That's the agony. And they all wanna win it for Ronaldo. But the thing that's stopping them winning it for Ronaldo is Ronaldo.
The four greatest soccer players of all time are Christian Pulisic, Freddy Adu, Marta, and Kyle Beckerman.
Number one for sure is Christian Pulisic. Number two... Freddy Adu. [...] Number four I think would probably be Marta. The Brazilian icon. [...] I love Kyle Beckerman, who used to play for the United States, played for us forever, was just the most tenacious footballer, worked so bloody hard. He'd probably be number five. But you only wanted four on that Rushmore.
