The big tournament starts in a few days so here is the thread to kick it off and keep it going all the way through. I think the times in this chart at ET. So who will win. Who will crash out horribly (plz France) and which players will light it up and then be signed by us. All of that in one thread.... wow.
Most of the kickoff times are brutal out here on the west coast. Damn. Will miss a fair few games. Some good ones too. 5 AM kickoffs. Shizzz.
I feel you Shay. I'm on MST now but at least I'll have summer vacation to fall back on. Looks like I'll be breaking out the Stoli for this edition of the WC at some early hours.
If it wasn't for me being in russia for a couple of weeks, I'd miss most games too. The time difference sucks Viva Colombia
Thanks @Shay Z was going to start one myself. And yes, all those times are EST. They're excellent times for me. Get into work and the first match starts haha
Valverde doesn't make the Uruguay squad. Very disappointing, was looking forward to watching him at the WC.
¡viva la furia roja! My plan is to buy a month of a streaming service with DVR capabilities (eg Sling or Youtube TV) and just watch the matches I want to see when I get home.
Yeah I plan on doing that, but I'm a teacher in Arizona so I'll probably have to murder someone to afford a month of Sling.
Are those times accurate? I can’t remember the last tournament that didn’t have both final matches of each particular group at the same time.
I hope Kovacic shuts down Messi en route to a Croatia victory over Argentina. Would be really nice if Argentina bombs out in the first round!
Looking forward to this match or against Belgium. I bought tickets for it, Is in Moscow. I hope is Belgium btw.. more talent on the field. James vs KDB/Hazard should be a great game or it could end up being Poland or Senegal
Hope Croatia are able to go far in the tournament. Last chance for Modric to make a mark in a World Cup, and the guy deserves to have a standout tournament and be properly recognized as a great of the game. Furthermore, it could help Kovacic breakout as a future great on the biggest stage. Hoping for the best here.
