Ok, it’s been a pretty good World Cup so far
It’s only been three days, and we’ve had an absolute classic between Spain and Portugal, Messi missing a penalty, and a lot of controversy in the France game.
And we’ve still got a lot more to come.
But one of our favourite things to happen so far, hasn’t been on the pitch. It hasn’t even been in Russia. It has been Ice-T’s tweets about the tournament.
Yes, Ice-T. The golden age rapper who had ’99 Problems’ long before Jay Z ever did, and has been spitting rhymes since 1981. In 1992, he terrified America with the notorious track ‘Cop Killer’, with his metal band Body Count. And he’s known to a whole new generation for playing a NYPD detective on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
But he’s been letting his feelings known on the World Cup.
For instance:
Oh shit! Ronaldo is really that MF!

Same, Ice. Same.

You should watch it more, Ice. Football is great.
‘WorldCup Announcement’ 💥 People that feel the need to tell people from the USA that the sport is called Football and not Soccer.. Get the International DUMBFUCK award 🥇 … We already know that.

To be fair, that one ruffled a few feathers.
Ok… Do you feel better now….? https://t.co/mocKYbYric

Seriously though, next time you’re in this neck of the woods, hit us up. We’ll watch the first round of the Carabao Cup with you. That’s real football.
