2022 World Cup

[Texasmade]

For as ****** as the old BCS was for college football, their trophy was ******* legit. The crystal football that gets shattered because players drop it or knock it off the stand was instantly recognizable.

That's not the actual trophy, unfortunately. The team's owner is a video game company, so that's a special one-off just for their team. The regular trophy is less interesting

Still better than the World Cup One, though.

This trophy is still awarded to whichever team is voted #1 by the Coaches' poll.

"A priceless icon which can only be touched and held by a very select group of people" is coincidentally also how I describe my junk.

So something women don't care to touch but dudes love caressing.

Priceless icon or not, if you can’t drink out of it it’s not a cup.

Oh, it's got something you can swallow...

Very select group of people = one person = you

Fun fact in.... 2009 I think? I was at a press conference and they had the World Cup Trophy. I respected the protocol and only took a photo from afar but there were like two or three people who went up and touched it. The very concerned trophy handler (who wore gloves so as to not actually touch the trophy) didn't say anything until someone took out a camera at which point the whole thing was shut down.

Meanwhile the Webb Ellis Trophy for the Rugby World Cup gets abused for chugalugs and then punted around the winners' dressing room. Because ... rugby.
