The Sunday Metropolitan section of the Times asked me to write about watching the World Cup in New York. With the help of some very good editors, I have this piece in this Sunday's section:
www.nytimes.com/2018/06/15/nyregion/watch-world-cup-new-york.html The Metropolitan section on line is also listing places to eat and drink and maybe even make merry, depending on the score, during this month-long World Cup: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/06/13/nyregion/where-to-watch-world-cup-nyc.html

Dear George: I think the Foley’s, the Irish baseball pub, is amazing. I would love to watch a game of Brazil there in 2026. Thanks for introducing us to this amazing place.

Always good to read what GV has to say. Once again, I am very upset about the terrible announcing by Fox personnel. They do not shut up. Stick to saying who is passing to whom and do not go into player bios or review earlier games during the run of play. Have they never watched how NBC Sports does it? Do they think US audiences require constant chatter?

There seems to be an interesting competition developing between the Wall Street Journal and the catch-up NYT. The Journal drew first blood with the opening match pub selections for supporters of each country. The Times needed you, George.

I need to correct myself. I was putting the Times in a competition league that was too high. The Times was not competing against the WSJ by weighing in on the World Cup pub/restaurant scene. It was actually trying to compete with the NY Post! I had forgotten I had picked up a copy while in New York and saw it there. Comments are closed.
