| 0:28.5 | Thank you. Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and our World Cup Group H preview. |
| 0:58.2 | Last but not least, we come to the group that contains the Portuguese, |
| 1:02.2 | featuring a man named Ronaldo, who may no longer have a club to please. |
| 1:05.9 | Portugal is stacked with talent, and they know just how to win, |
| 1:09.5 | using the kind of poop-housery other teams might |
| 1:11.8 | consider a sin. Also here, reping CAF is Ghana back on the main stage. The black stars will show up, |
| 1:18.8 | but this probably isn't their golden age. Two-time champs, Uruguay will be hoping to make a big leap, |
| 1:24.7 | but fans of Liverpool, Madrid and Spurs might be hoping they don't go too |
| 1:28.8 | deep. And finally, we have South Korea who aren't scared to commit, but their fate ultimately |
| 1:33.9 | rests on whether Hewing Min's son is fit. My name's Ryan Bailey, joining me today, a man who'll be |
| 1:40.1 | telling us whether Darwin Nunes is good or bad as he previews Uruguay, Taylor Ockwell. Hello. Yes is my answer. Hello, my friend. And because I am representing Uruguay, I must say, up front, technically four-time world champions, thank you very much. That's why they have four stars on their shirt. They won two World Cups, but then they won the Olympics twice before the World Cup existed. So they rep four stars. That would be the reason for that disparity. |
| 2:06.4 | All right. Sit down here, quite. Also, this, this happened. Like, every preview I read was like, |
| 2:11.8 | technically we've won it four times. Like, it happened on like every preview that I read. It was |
| 2:16.2 | in the comments section. So I'm just trying to preempt that right away by being obnoxious. And while I'm being obnoxious, I will also add, I know it is something closer to like Uruguay, as I'm supposed to say it. But I promise I will not say that for the rest of this episode. I will say Uruguay because I'm American. And I feel like that pushes the levels of pretentiousness |
| 2:34.4 | just a bit too far for me. Yeah, I appreciate you making that concession. Thank you very much, Taylor. |
| 2:40.4 | Joining us a man who was once known as the dictator of Porto, your friend of mine, who's going Portuguese |
| 2:45.9 | today, Joe Lowry. Hello. It's good to be back, baby. That's all I got to say. Portuguese, Porto. I'm ready to talk soccer. My subjects are ready. My people are ready. Ryan, let's do this thing, baby. |
