@larsiu watch the run where he gets fouled. Too strong for Kane to knock off the ball. Nuts the next guy. Then as he’s preparing to go around the last guy he chips it a little to get by. Him and iniesta are like nobody I’ve seen. Ronaldinho didn’t even do that. How they can go full speed and with their move lift the ball a foot or so off the ground. It’s nuts
He's precognitive on a football pitch. There is no one in any other sport I've seen be able to literally see the future. Maybe, MAYBE, Roger Federer in tennis. I've stopped asking how? and just focus on the art itself.
Gretsky, bruh.
And he did it on skates where someone can actually hurt you.

this is the only good comment you've made in this thread. Thank you.
@bradstevens gretzky is probably closest to that touch we talk about but hockey is such a little niche sport. maybe a million and a half people in the world playing. the beautiful game probably 300 million
@larsiu i mean when you say messi is the goat you're probably talking about a guy who over the last century is better than what? a billion people who have played soccer during that time at all levels. @snarlcakes imagine that? more than a billion people. this isn't like baseball where a kid from bandera texas needs to be better than a kid from valdosta georgia. he has to be better than hundreds of millions. from the jungles of africa to the favelas of brazil, to the suburbs of paris, to the tundra of iceland, to overland park kansas. wow wow wow. let that sink in @snarlcakes. the bravery to even try!

Well, somebody has to be the best. Whether it's being better than 1,000, 100,000, or 1,000,000,000.
@noodle yeah kind of like a smaller build but same. Good call. Freakish lower body strength. Your wingman enjoying the cup? My minion is still too little. He doesn’t give a shit

Any sport where the best player can't ride all the rides at Kings Island isn't a sport. It's a cute game and good exercise. I hope Norway wins it all.

He is. Though he still likes going to games in person a lot more. We went to the FC Cincinnati v. Burnley about 10 days ago. Sparse crowd but had fun.
