Is it a real thing? I see press reports of tickets for games featuring him going for silly money but I don't know how legitimate that stuff ever is. It's funny seeing old Messi completely boss things though when he's probably not even half the player he once was. It helps that the MLS is pretty shit. Nice just let Messi run past you in the last few minutes without going after him like that stupid

- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal (himself) to a troll.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never shown this video footage during any of his media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergencies (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.

It's a con-job from media, sponsors and the league. Astroturfed nonsense that will likely deflate soon, because soccer is a sport where by the nature of it nothing happens.
Giving Messi questionable free kicks in the last 3 minutes of a tied game so he can score another highlight goal will accomplish nothing

One of the best players in the world moves to America to play bums. I’ll be telling my grandchildren about it.
You guys are happy enough with baseball which is one of the slowest sports I have ever seen
Big crowd of people watching the game in times square. It's quite funny seeing so many people invested in such a crappy level of football. It's all a bit false and weird considering they were playing against a new York side. I get new York is a global city but I just can't imagine that happening in London
I wouldn't pay to watch tom Brady, labron James or whoever the biggest hockey player is play in the very shitty hardly watched leagues we have in the UK for their sports
Seems American sports fans are easily blinded by the hype than the actual substance I guess
NFL games in London sell out in seconds.
You don't get people turning out to watch washed up NFL players on a big screen in a local league in Trafalgar Square though.
He won the World Cup single handedly a year ago, he won the French league with like 40 goal involvements and he’s just won the MLS cup with 10 goals in 6 games lol
He’s not washed up at all. He’s the GOAT.
I think he's the best I have ever seen but he's way past his prime.
So what? He’s still probably going to win the balon door 2023, Americans value sports greatness. That’s why we all love video games player of the century American hero Billy Mitchell.
You may as well start a legitimate veterans league with 40 year olds then. Balon D'or and all those individual awards are absolutely meaningless bling to Impress the easily distracted. It's all about trophies as a side. Harry kane could've stayed at spurs and become premier league top scorer of all time but he went to win trophies as a side rather than individual awards
There's a lot of hispanics in the United States and even the ones from outside of Argentina love the guy. Could be wrong but I don't think he has any scandals and he seems pretty humble, unlike Ronaldo. When they played against France, you had a guy that married his high-school sweetheart playing against an arrogant cum-eating tranny chaser 
(on top of the other factors that made Argentina more likeable). Nobody watches MLS but with the shifting demographics and them pulling in all-timers like him, it might actually end up growing in popularity.

I think the Qataris are generally upright, god-fearing, humble people like Boq and for arguments sake I want to include their economic and political elites as well (Boq is the son of diplomats and merchants).
However I can believe that the Qataris saw great potential in tying Lionel Messi's name to theirs by Argentina winning the World Cup in their own country.
Messi and Ronaldo were adversaries at the club stages, each winning every relevant team and player award multiple times.
But neither ever had relevant international success representing their respective home countries before Ronaldo won the European Championship a few years ago. But Messi still had his Copa Americas and Argentina is not part of UEFA.
It still gave Ronaldo a slight edge because the EC is at least the 2nd best int. soccer cup, maybe better than a WC.
So this gave the Qataris a chance to actively create the ultimate soccer storyline:
At the last chance, Messi gets his final, missing piece trophy, while Ronaldo (who criticized Israel and made affronts against Fifa sponsor Coca Cola) also likely at his last World Cup, was eliminated early. In Qatar where soccer magic happens
Now the Americans use that for marketing purposes. Might be that Messi actually repays the Americans who made it possible via their Qatari Agents.

It's because of the novelty not because the Brits are rabid bucks fans or whatever the fuck team is playing. The fact is, soccer is growing in America. The old codgers that were told by their elders that soccer is boring but somehow baseball a game of stats, estimates, player ticks, spitting, no fitness, too much jewelry over a span of 200 games is somehow exciting is over.
Plus white people are still good at this game, so there is no fear of your kid growing up worshipping some ghetto criminal who can't speak his native tongue
Baseball is not a good spectator sport but you have to respect the fact that it's not gay like soccer. I'm not going to insult your intelligence with examples, everybody knows what I'm talking about
Baseball requires tools to play, you need gloves, bats etc. All soccer requires is a ball, a net can be 2 rocks, trees etc and can be played anywhere. Soccer promotes fitness, baseball is a lazy sport with moments of physical activity.
There's also people from the whole of Europe who travel to London for those games as it's far easier than flying to the US. I only know one person who watches/has a side in the NFL.
Why are there 8 referees, hundreds of laser cameras, 5 more video referees at a remote location, goal line technology and chipped soccer balls when I try to watch Parathikaikos vs Arsenal but it's such any easy game to play by yourself. Seems like the two aren't the same sport anymore. I get what you say about playing yourself but that's not what the sport has mutated into on the "telly"
