[I realize we already have an 'absolute state' thread, but it's mainly dedicated to clubs.]

We've seen the absolute clusterf*** in the buildup of the WC with the backdoor dirty money transferring, and moving a WC into the winter schedule built on the back of slaves. And with millions of people descending upon a small islamic country that only holds a few million, and the seismic culture clashes ensuing while the whole world watching, I figured we could funnel all potential "Fyre Festival" reports into this thread, and follow the hilarity.

Feel free to contribute.

Have we any plans to have Cup Contest wherein each of us lads prognosticates:

1. which sides advance to knockout from each group

2. Each stage of the knockout round through the final and the consolation match

3. Points are assigned to each correct pick (1 point for each correctly chosen team that advances, 2 points for first knockout round, 3 points for quarters and so on.

Fans accommodations cost $200 a night with no solid walls.

Just can’t seem to get excited about this one at all. Probably will watch but almost feels like a fake tournament.

Honestly, I’m not feeling the WC. Might watch some but not going to plan my day(s) around it.

The state of my local Fox affiliate beefing with DirecTV and cutting the channel off right before the World Cup. Guess I gotta fumble with the antenna again.

ETA whew looks like their streaming app still works
