It Just Matters More In The South: Fans Sing And Chant Messi's Name In Front Of His Grandmother's House Deep Into The Night In Argentina

What a scene. Hundreds of people showing up to some little window in Rosario, Argentina to celebrate an abuela's gene pool. When there is a direct line to the GOAT you celebrate the entire line. Someone passed through her legs, which led to Messi passing through another woman's legs, which lead to him putting the ball through a million people's legs. Now an entire nation is grateful. And they should be. 

I think this video is enough to get me on board with Argentina. Fuck Mbappe (this has nothing to do with him not helping me cash a bet yesterday). France already has their World Cup in this generation. Argentina and Messi needs his moment. Which is crazy to say. Messi has done EVERYTHING in his career except win the World Cup. I want it to happen. I love a good ride into the sunset. A lone gaucho carrying the World Cup trophy. He deserves this moment. He left Argentina at 13 years old. That is also a crazy thing about this sport. Some scout saw this kid pre-puberty and was like "sign him to a contract, take him away from his parents, and send him across an ocean". Fucking wild sport. 

And it's all been worth it.
