7 Darnell Dockett World Cup Tweets That Ask The Important Questions
One of our favorite tweeters (and he should be yours too) is Arizona Cardinals defensive end Darnell Dockett. While he's no soccer aficionado, he really takes a deep look into the 2014 World Cup in Brazil by asking the all-important USMNT related questions. Dockett really is the voice of the American people as we navigate through this confusing period where futbol soccer takes over our TV.
This weekend, Darnell Dockett took on USA vs. Portugal. I know, I know...sore subject. On the bright side, the USMNT are still alive.
7 Darnell Dockett World Cup tweets that ask the important questions (@ddockett):
7. Everyone across America.
I don't watch soccer , but how is the USA doing?
— DARNELL DOCKETT (@ddockett) June 22, 2014
Because soccer isn't really our 'thing'.
6. At one point this was a rhetorical question.
RT @JacobASpace: @ddockett play Portugal today and they won their first game vs Ghana!----- is Portugal good?
— DARNELL DOCKETT (@ddockett) June 22, 2014
Group G, or as it's been fondly referred to as the 'Group of Death', has tested Portugal.
5. Patriotism.
Gonna watch this whole soccer game.. I have no clue what's going in but I'm gonna see how this works out.. GoUSA!!!!
— DARNELL DOCKETT (@ddockett) June 22, 2014
Not a question. More like a thought, but I digress.
4. The 'I need to know who's best' question.
Who is the best player on USA and the red team?
— DARNELL DOCKETT (@ddockett) June 22, 2014
Hands down, the USA answer is Clint Dempsey. No comment on the "red team."

3. The 'When can I pee?' question.
Dog.... How long is a soccer match????
— DARNELL DOCKETT (@ddockett) June 22, 2014
Answer: When the players leave the field. Two opportunities: at 45 minutes (+ stoppage) for halftime and at 90 minutes (+ stoppage), so hold it in.
2. As if we weren't already devastated enough, now math.
Damn so what do the tie means for USA?
— DARNELL DOCKETT (@ddockett) June 23, 2014
A tie means we earned one point and if we won it would have been 3 points, but if Ghana and Portugal tie, each team will earn 1 point and if we...over it. Get a breakdown here.
1. Because now we can't get enough.
