Does anyone else think that the new WC format is simply too much football in a tournament that goes on too long? I need a water break, or, since I'm generally watching free in Spanish, una pausa de hidratacion.

Too much hydration = too many trips to the WC.

It's been pretty entertaining so far for me. Some really good quality on show. Although I agree, there's probably too many teams; basically, winning 1 game in the groups ensures you make it to the knockouts. Doesn't feel right to me.

Nicely done, Eric.

Let's not kid ourselves. They aren't "hydration" breaks, they are adorable breaks.

This isn't a tournament played in a desert like Qatar, it's in the US, Mexico and Canada.

The conditions typically aren't really anything more than you'd get throughout the season playing in Spain or Italy.
