These third round games have been totally unwatchable. They have to go back to a 32 team system.

Anyone that thinks that scoreless soccer means it must have been boring needs to watch Columbia v. Portugal.

It is not that they "must be boring" however 9 out of 10 of them are indeed at least slightly boring and there would be more that are mind-numbingly boring than would be exciting.
At a world cup 0-0 probably means both teams are happy with a draw or one teams has parked the bus.

What's the aggregate boringness to the median boring soccer game?

I doubt they get past the winner of potential Germany - France 1/8 meeting. Seeding is crazy, only one teem out of France/Germany/Netherlands gets to 1/4. Brutal. They are well balanced, only that might not be enough to advance. Argentina has a walk through till Brazil in 1/2.

Every sport is boring if you don’t care who wins. I love college football but I’m not wasting my time watching Cal play NC State

This is the last World Cup that Fox has under contract for broadcast rights. 2030 is still up in the air.

Netflix has the Women's World Cup in both 2027 and 2031.

Is it real polish or American polish?

Like my neck of the woods is basically all German/Norwegian/Swede but other than our last names and physical appearances, you probably wouldn't notice.

The languages are now gone other than maybe in a few nursing homes. To quote Michael Irvin, "the young women today arent learning how to cook. We're losing recipes!"
