This is the most American article that’s ever been written about the World Cup
The relationship between football and the US has been notoriously stop-start (or maybe just stop) despite the best efforts of David Beckham.
But we’re grateful to @MikeElChingon for sharing the most American article about the World Cup you’ll ever read.
And it generated quite the response online.

They lost me at “Soccer is corrupt”. Well, they ACTUALLY lost me at “We Americans will happily continue to dominate the sports that are actually worth watching”, but those other three words, like, double lost me.

Change the words “soccer” to “the US” and “referees” to “the rich” and it’s basically America

Spare a thought for the author who had this to say.
It’s humorous in nature.

It was hard to distinguish this if this was serious or not because I know some Americans who legitimately feel this way
