Follow on from the last thread.

He has that same weird torso as Musk

I like cricket and rugby.

We don't need to host basketball or American football.

Have you been marketed to enough yet? Buy buy buy.

They all looked like they were miming. Apart from Jennifer !

Will be switching off for the entirety of half time... load of nonsense!!

Well it is being hosted in America 🤷‍♀️

What a day for the mascots!

Co-hosted by Mexico and Canada but you wouldn't know

Ditto Robbie and the two women.
and what has Robbie Williams done to his face?

The Americas actually

Its not about USA.

Teams coming out. National anthems to follow.

Why would they?

Yes, where were their anthems and contribution?

Phew! Just made it. Go Spain!

The Americas

The commentators are hilarious. All giving glowing praise in the same way a primary school teacher uses euphemisms in a code way to describe the little shit in the class everyone hates teaching.

But they were singing and at least they held their mics close enough

An acknowledgment that they co-hosted?

Logging in! Didn't bother with the preliminaries, and the less I see of Trump the better.

The size of his trumpet !

Because they were co-hosts.

He moved to America and plasticised. It's in the water. Probably. Definitely not surgery or Botox.

🤣 yes that’s exactly it! 🤣

Spain has a lovely National anthem x

I didn't recognise him .

Filth.
