Even if Qatar made a massive loss they still come out ahead. UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi etc (rich oil/gas states) all have suffer from small man pissing contests and Qatar beat them all.

Number 1 Bullshit
Plus out of all this Qatar is getting nothing but positive propaganda in the US because they apparently paid Fox enough to do nothing but boost them.

I think we can all agree having the WC in a country of 3m people of which a much smaller percentage are actually “people” under the law is pretty stupid and that a World Cup in Morocco, Egypt or hell even Iran would own bones

the thing about the jews is,

right ok. this is good. the bet has actually been split into 2:

1) How many times will saurez bite tomorrow?

2) how many PEOPLE will saurez bite tomorrow?


highest accuracy bracket player at the moment has:

1) three bites

2) two people (one person plus himself)

Chiefly to talk about how poo poo Qatar are, how much sportswashing sucks, to lol at the various failures that come to light during the tournament and generally try and have an interesting discussion.

You yelling that Qatar have indeed spent money and probably more than they'll take in on ticket receipts over people pointing out that they're in it for the aforementioned sportswashing and political capital they will gain from this, is not, in any way, interesting.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

There's no need for cliques or identifying someone as any particular type of poster. There are plenty of other people that post in cspam posting about the world cup no problem at all.

I feel like a cspam poster, I feel like a SAL poster, I feel like a TRP poster. Of course, I am not a cspam poster, I am not a SAL poster, I am not a TRP poster. But I feel like it, because I know what it means to be discriminated, to be bullied, as a poster in a foreign subforum. What do you do then? You try to engage, make friends. Don’t start accusing, fighting, insulting, you start engaging

If you want to criticise, come to me. Here I am, you can crucify me, I am here for that. Don’t criticise cspam, don’t criticise the posters, don’t criticise anyone, criticise the mods, criticise me because I am responsible for everything. How many occasions do we have to unite the forums? Do we want to continue to spit on others because they look different or they feel different? We defend poster rights. We do it our way. We obtain results. It’s a step-by-step process, help us in doing more. Don’t divide, don’t split.

On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog.


A world cup thread should be posted in CSPAM. It should be posted in FYAD. If they’re interested it should be posted in coupons. I actually went to coupons some years ago to post an interest check for a World Cup thread: Inwas not successful obviously but I would post it another 100 times if I thought it would help unite the forums
