erm is it too late for old guard soccer questions? Nicky is into Italy as every proper Italian should be but well .... which club is his favorite you think 👀

DIFFICULT QUESTIONS, DIFFICULT QUESTIONS. Serie A fans, Italians, residents of the lovely city of Genoa, I am asking you to pitch in here bc I am pulling things out of my ass!

I don't know if Luca Marinelli has a club he supports; he was born in Rome, but I don't want to assume Roma or Lazio just because of that! It's maybe a little more reasonable to assume Genoa CFC or Sampdoria for Nicolo, since he predates the literal country of Italy and might be more likely to have region-specific loyalties, but I also don't know anything about those clubs and their history! For all I know, Nicolo Di Genova supports a massively obscure Serie D club that hasn't existed since the 1960s and bitterly hates all other clubs for being Flashy and Modern and having bad ownership, I don't know!

(also sorry to any Juventus girlies out there, I truly cannot see Nicky as a Juve fan I just can't. I feel like he would be a bit of a snobby hipster about Juve's popularity and its marketing outside Serie A for some reason).

JOE was absolutely on his knees in front of the screen crying and yelling during 2022 Morocco WC run. Some things are just beautiful, you know?

#the old guard #my posts #football #andy refuses to engage with Sports. not bc she doesn't see value in activity or community bonding she's just So Jaded about it all #NILE actually was briefly on her highschool's soccer team but never got to the level of getting a scholarship for it #i would LOVE to say that she's a fan of femeni but given how we met Nile she probably has starry eyed nostalgia about the USWNT #i need to go back to the scene where booker and joe get attacked bc they were actually watching a game #and if i go frame by frame i might be able to see what they were actually watching #i CANNOT see Booker putting emotional energy such that he gets visibly and verbally excited into any club at all #EVEN FRANCE NT. like he was HAPPY with the WC i think but booker just has such constant depression brain #i feel like he just looks at whatever game Joe puts on and is like 'GAME'S GONE' no matter who is playing or how well they're doing #joe...SEE AGAIN i don't want to assume that Joe has necessarily picked a european club #as opposed to like...some extremely obscure side that got booted out of Ligue Professionelle 2 in the 1960s #and is now basically a sunday kickabout consisting of a bunch of nostalgic old Tunisians and maybe Joe if he's around #BUT JOE IS SO WEIRDLY TRENDY IN SUCH SPECIFIC MOMENTS maybe he has! WHO KNOWS.#marwan is dutch so heck...maybe Joe is this massive cruyffista and has followed Ajax for forever. MAYBE JOE IS A CULER #WE CAN CLAIM HIM THAT'S ALLOWED. ON ACCOUNT OF I LOVE HIM YOUR HONOR #that means i'm claiming nile too bc if she hasn't followed football since she left highschool #she doesn't know barca femeni is the greatest and most winningest sports team on earth and now she is immortal she has time!
