Messi Had One Heck Of a Swollen Ankle Against Colombia Last Night

Damn, that's pretty bad. Tough dude. Most keyboard warriors on the rant would probably be off computer for 3 days with an ankle injury like that.

Who?

yawn. I honestly have tried to like soccer over the past couple decades, but the rules of the game are so flawed that I just can't embrace it. Change a few rules and the game could actually be interesting, but it's a dull, slow slog right now, where games are often decided by a random bounce of the ball or, even worse, penalty kicks.

I am mystified by the effort to get America to embrace this commie game and its global superstars.
