So the Americans are sort of correct after all then? Except for the ball part

Apparently so. But by the same token you could call tennis or cricket, football

Great wee player. Now doing a great job as the head of a charity for homeless people.

Swedish pundits are arguing over if the third red card was correct (DOGSO) or should have been just a yellow (SPA). Thoughts?

The kilts who came to Boston are welcome back anytime. Coolest fans I’ve ever seen and the interviews on the local news have been outstanding. And they can sing and drink with the big boys. Everyone here has been so impressed.

I took Amtrak Penn to BBY Friday afternoon and there must’ve been about 40 scots, half in kilts, onboard. Awesome energy

Cheers mate. Boston is a lovely city. Everyone has been great and stopping to talk to us and taking photos with us. We’re here for a little bit longer playing Morocco on Friday then off to Miami for the Brazil game.

Fenway Park was rocking tonight with all the Scots at the game. They have become beloved around here in a short time. They are wicked pissah. I wonder what the US Open golf is gonna gonna be like if they make their way over there too.

Unbelievable there was no line on lukaku to score because he wasn’t in the lineup. They put him in and by the time I picked up my phone to bet he would score, he scored immediately

I thought it was an own goal. Did Lukaku get credit for it?

When he grabbed the ball immediately I thought for sure he scored . I watch on the Spanish channel even though I don’t speak Spanish at all. Even on the replay I was sure he got it. I don’t feel bad anymore. I even bet draw so it’s a win win situation now. Any other English speaking people watch the Spanish channel instead ? Or is that just a boomer thing ?

 

[BKisback]

I do both. Love the energy on Telemundo and Univision for big games.

Another one here—when there’s a big moment in the game, I want to hear Andres Cantor on Telemundo

whip being an excessive overstatement here

You're making us all proud.

No Scotland, No Party.
To say that the Scot’s have taken Boston by storm is an understatement. They are everywhere and have been totally embraced by the people here. It’s been delightful. Everyone here can’t wait to go on vacation to Scotland .
