Hey, Molly, did you know that the World Cup of Soccer is here in the United States this year?

I vaguely knew about it.

And I even looked into it just a tiny bit to see about going.

But the-

Going?

These tickets are so insanely expensive.

It's unbelievable.

My brother is a lifelong, huge soccer fan. And he was the kind of brother who would

get up early to watch or follow World Cup, depending on where it was, you know, throughout the

globe. He's not one of these late comers to soccer he was he was playing soccer

you know in the 70s and early 80s so um so everything i was about to say i didn't want to insult

your now i'm going to be insulting your brother basically i don't mean to do it i just think we

have a patriotic duty not to follow soccer or like soccer it's just I agree I love my brother but I agree what is it it's a terrible sport it's very boring there's no scoring but especially I dislike it because Europeans love it so much and mock us for not calling it football and for not following it.

Do you not?

What is it?

Hold on. I have a World Cup exception though. Like I don't think we need American teams.

I think the fact that all the kids play soccer is pretty lame.

They should be playing baseball or other real sports.

But when it comes to World Cup, I actually do enjoy country versus country.
