Hey Canada and Mexico! I’m really sorry about the person who’s moved in next door.

Unfortunately, you can’t choose your neighbours!

You have the sympathy of the rest of the western world.

I'd forgotten that.

Oh shit yeah!

tomdedelta.bsky.social•22 days ago

Oh wow totally, never thought of that 🍿

AND the 1936 Olympics Part 2

tomdedelta.bsky.social•22 days ago

Wow, I mean you’re not wrong at all. Really didn’t occur to me 😬

jenbren.bsky.social•22 days ago

It's all set up perfectly for them, isn't it?

tomdedelta.bsky.social•22 days ago

Literal history repeating itself. It’d be hilarious if it wasn’t real.

Olympics too.

jenbren.bsky.social•22 days ago

Well that's just gonna be 1936 Berlin again.

🎶Dream of Californication

It was destined to be a mess before all this. Final match at the football stadium near me in Jersey, which hosted a Super Bowl that was a logistical disaster for fans.

But now…whatever countries bids were rejected should be reconsidered.

It was a ridiculous idea in the first place, even before all this

mmch.bsky.social•22 days ago

Jesus, I’d forgotten about that. BTW, I’m going to Mexico next month, so watch out for my wildly inaccurate hot takes on the situation.

jenbren.bsky.social•22 days ago

And the Olympics.

Would be funny if USA and Mexico meet and Mexico get a cricket score.

jenbren.bsky.social•22 days ago

We can only dream

stuwaldy.bsky.social•22 days ago

Imagine Mexico gets a free kick and then USA have to make a wall

mikebaldwin.bsky.social•22 days ago

Will Mexico pay for it?

bapbor2.bsky.social•22 days ago

Don’t worry Infantino’ll relocate all the games to the US to please Trump.

I don’t know whether FIFA might impose their own transnational tournament laws and tariffs, but Scotland’s men are probably failing to qualify, sorry, boycott it again

jenbren.bsky.social•22 days ago

They've a better chance than Ireland making the *cough* 48

2026 World Cup might not happen if World War 3 gets in the way 😳

Looking forward to the government getting the Jeremy Hunt treatment at the LA Olympics, too.
