Qatar 2022 - The Shitshow
- Thread starter adam
- Start date
In the press conference last night the captain of Iran spoke out against the Iranian gov't in support of the protestors fighting for human rights. The entire Iranian team didn't sing the national anthem in an act of protest. All actions possibly putting the players and their families in the crosshairs of a regime that has shown they will kill people for disagreeing with them.
On the other side of the of the pitch, Harry Kane wouldn't even risk a yellow card for the cause he had stated he planned to support. It feels bad to blame the players for a problem created 100% by FIFA but its hard not to be disappointed by their lack of courage.
This is actually pretty awesome. $75mm of free beer makes one hell of a championship parade/party.

With 17 (?) games played, I stand by my original position. I'm a fan of offsides tech.
It has been very fast in every single situation except 1, the first time it was needed in the Ecuador/Qatar match. My assumption then, and even stronger suspicion now, is that the offsides tech was just as fast in that situation. The long delay was determining whether the play prior came from the keeper's punch or the striker's head.

Oh my god. Absolutely unbelievable. He was a brilliant reporter and seemed like such a good person. Unimaginably sad.
Assuming he is dead and I have not helped spread a bizarre rumor, I want to note there is no evidence he was killed.
Maybe he was. Maybe it’s related to the incident with the rainbow shirt. But all we have now is speculation by his understandably distraught brother.

would be pretty messed up if his actual brother ( no idea if it is his brother or not) posted an IG video saying he's dead and that he (the brother) believes he was killed.
sad if true. but even people who seem healthy can die suddenly for many reasons. it's easy to point fingers and speculate, but damn sure doesn't look coincidental considering his brother claims he (grant) was receiving death threats.
Right -- we need to wait for more information. Him dying is unimaginably sad. His wife, Celine Gounder, has "liked" a tweet of condolences on Twitter so by all indications it is true. If someone did kill him, it would be a massive international incident. I certainly hope that part of the story isn't true, because if it is, it's too horrific to even think about.
