44. I have to agree..the odds of defeating.
Sun Jul 5, 2026, 08:19 PM
Sunday

Belgium, Spain and then France are ridiculous.
And I'm moderately conflicted not to support the US team. But in as much as Cracker Barrel
Krasnov has tried to influence this. It would choice to see us defeated by Belgium..hate to be petty but just fuck this piece of shit excuse for a human being.
He wants to everything about him
I hope we lose..
