Copa Centenario Thread: Chile made Messi's ass quit

Yeah but it got me front row in Chicago 8)

 

we got 4 in row 6, but my buddy's computer timed out and he is back in row 18.

 

I wouldn't care that much about a few rows but the $9.25 service fee is robbery. then they "recommend" you insure your tickets for another $6.99. get the fuck out.

 

row 4 in Chicago

 

Hi

 

Yeah they're legalized felons

 

My friend bought the tickets. Im 90% going(starting a new job next week) already looking at hotels once I clear it with them.

 

Trying to spoon?

 

Possibly. One of our friends is either gonna stay with us or another friend. So not sure if we have 3 or 4 right now.

 

I didn't mean literally, I'm staying with my friends. But I appreciate the Midwest hospitality

 

I got picked up at the Phx airport by a man I hoped was Lou Holth and stayed at his place for one night on my Fiesta Bowl trip. So Im used to weird things on this site.

 

I'm glad this is a thing others do. I picked up Skrouse and let him stay at my place for the US/Mexico Qualifier in Columbus a couple years ago. My wife thought I was insane

 

Supposedly the big time South American players will be pressured into skipping out on this tournament. And apparently Peru are considering sending an U-21 team. Way to hurt my feelings you CONMEBOL jerks.

 

That sound you hear is resale ticket prices going down the toilet.

If true.

 

Supposedly the most likely to not come is Alexis Sanchez and Vidal because Chile have the Confederations Cup the next summer and neither ever get any kind of extended rest. I bet a lot of American Arsenal fans are/were planning on attending a Chile match just to see Alexis.

What matters most to me

 

You should send Adidas a thank you card for paying him an ungodly amount of money to be their poster child.

 

That's going to be such an amazing week. I'm so excited and hoping he doesn't get hurt, lie to me or go to jail

 

draw is Sunday. at what point will we know that matchup dates/locations?

 

at the draw. they'll pick a team as "A2" and we'll immediately know they'll play USA in SF on 6/3, then Pasedena, then Houston

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copa_América_Centenario#Group_stage

 

so possibly dumb question, if I'm getting US vs. A4 does that mean I'm definitely getting a team from pot 4?

please say no.

 

yes :[

 

fuck me

 

I guess the good news is it will be the last game of the group and possibly very meaningful.

 

or meaningless

hth

 

you know what Ace

 

zeberdee

Pot 2 will be the highest ranked CONMEBOL teams ( Chile, Colombia, Uruguay, Equador)

Pot 3 will be the highest ranked CONCACAF teams ( Costa Rica, Jamaica, Panama, Haiti)

Pot 4 will be the remaining CONMEBOL teams ( Paraguay, Peru,Bolivia, Venezuela )

 

Our CBs probably think Uruguay is worst case

 

I don't care who we draw, I'm just excited as shit for this summer, however it would be really great to get through group play.

 

We're better then all the teams in pots 3 and 4, not getting out of the group would be a huge failure. Not sure we make it past the first knockout round though

 

Group A
USA
Colombia
Costa Rica
Paraguay

Group B
Brazil
Ecuador
Haiti
Peru

Group C
Mexico
Uruguay
Jamaica
Venezuela

Group D
Argentina
Chile
Panama
Bolivia

 

Updated through Pots 1 and 4

 

lol

 

So we get the toughest draw possible basically

 

God damn you

 

wow that's brutal. arguably best team in each pot.

 

Fuck

 

I hope Suarez bites a Mexican

 

brutal draw

 

literally laughed out loud

could see that coming a mile away - both federations pissed at Loretta Lynch

 

Well zeberdee you should see a decent match and it should have meaning

 

maybe Roque Santa Cruz will play.

I'm happy I get to see fun games. US/Costa Rica and Argentina/Jamaica

 

My buddy is pissed. He's holding tickets to Haiti vs. Ecuador. Gonna have to go into the Ironbound to get rid of those things. Of course he also has tickets for what will amount to Brazil vs. the #2 team out of group a.

 

Same here. I'll take a loss on the first game of it means I get see Brazil/US somehow.

 

Brazil vs USA should be a hot ticket though
