What hypocrisy?
We live in America.
We call the sport we pay attention to once every 4 years-soccer.
Soccer is played in America on what’s called a field.
No one is impressed because you watch the premier league and the announcers call it a pitch.
If I was British and couldn’t make it in cricket and took up baseball and tried to sound better and used diamond but criticized for using field or pitch THAT would be hypocrisy.
It is consistency to be American and use American terms.

That’s an innately American sport using American lexicon that you are trying to insult on the Fourth of July to support a sport made by the bloody British while trying to sound like a Brit.

Was there some big explosion or something?
If not why would you think to tell “I told you so” to letlow voters this morning on this subject?
Believe me I guarantee that Fleming made sure EVERYONE knew where she stood on the issue.
It was literally all he campaigned on.

re: My biggest problem with following soccer or the World Cup.

Like clockwork.
Instead of acknowledging that it s a silly, completely arbitrary rule that puts WAY too much power in the hands of the officials they go out of their way to defend it in the most smug way possible. Meanwhile trying to use alternative English vernacular for words used daily in America acting like they are the official soccer words for it when majority of the world playing soccer speaks Spanish.
This is coming from someone who actually enjoys watching the World Cup.

I honestly don't get why you think that way. The average American soccer fan absolutely only likes soccer because it's "different" and 100% makes it's part of their personality and you can see that in how desperately they latch on to cringe European sport culture as opposed to trying to assimilate the sport into accepted American culture
Agreed. They average “real” American soccer fan is smug in general everyday life hence they decided to follow soccer.
Hence why they LOVE the World Cup because it gives them their opportunity to be smug when the average American sports fan tunes in and states the obviousness of dumb things like stoppage time. “Oh you dumb rednecks its actually SMARTER”
Don’t even get them started on things like relegation.
