Wholesome British hooligans love The Londoner in Arlington, happily shocked by all-you-can-eat sirloins at Golden Corral. “Team England fans got a taste of home before their game yesterday against Croatia. The Londoner, a Dallas pub with locations throughout the Metroplex, held a soft opening at its new Arlington location just in time for the game. The wholesome hooligans were out in force …” Read more at https://bit.ly/FWW_LondonCalling.

World Cup Update

(The Vozinha Edition)

For one week, Gio Reyna’s goal against Paraguay silenced the noise around him. “On Ted Lasso, the British made fun of Ted for thinking that soccer matches are divided into quarters like American football games. This World Cup, the hydration breaks that come midway through each half have effectively divided the matches into quarters. The Americanization of soccer continues apace. We have the skinny on USA’s magnificent opening win and many, many other doings …” Read more at https://bit.ly/FWW_Vozinha.

World Cup Sparks Curiosity

BY RUSH OLSON (JUNE

The World Cup sparks curiosity about soccer and maybe more. “What made the Samurai Blue? It’s not a riddle, actually. It’s a question people like you might be asking right now (kinda). See, you may have picked up on the fact that the Japanese men’s national soccer team calls itself the ‘Samurai Blue.’ That’s because the word that there’s a big tournament in that sport going on in the United States right now (also in Canada and Mexico) has spread rapidly. And Japan drew the first North Texas game of the tournament, so they have been especially prominent in the news in that region …” Read more at https://bit.ly/FWW_SoccerCuriosity

World Cup Update

It’s the USA Own Goals Edition!

BY KRISTIAN LIN

If our country had been facing Australia in cricket or men’s rugby, I’d have been bracing for a beatdown. However, since we were playing them in the sport that both they and we call soccer, our guys came away with an easy 2-0 win. That clinched USA’s spot in the knockout rounds with one game still to go, and a few hours later, Paraguay’s 1-0 win over Türkiye ensured that USA will finish top of the group and that this week’s final group-stage match against the Turks will mean nothing for either team. I’m here for the lack of drama and for answering your questions about the second round of matches at the World Cup.

What other significance does the win over Australia have?

Our press is making much of defender Alex Freeman scoring a goal on the same ground where his father, Antonio Freeman, caught a touchdown pass for the Green Bay Packers in Super Bowl XXXI. However, the international community noticed that Christian Pulisic was injured. Since he’s the American player whom most foreigners know about, Team USA winning so easily without him shows that the squad is more than just the AC Milan playmaker.

Is that all?

I noticed the “0” on Australia’s side of the scoreline. This is only the third clean sheet that USA have kept at the World Cup since 2010, and it’s particularly encouraging, since it testifies to the U.S. players’ ability to keep their focus and defensive

intensity after taking an early lead. Beating inferior sides while allowing them to score consolation goals is generally not a recipe for a deep run at the World Cup, so let’s see Coach Mauricio Pochettino and his players keep things tight.

What was odd about USA’s win?

We reaped another own goal. Australia’s Cameron Burgess turned Folarin Balogun’s cross into his own net for USA’s opener, making our guys the first team in World Cup history to see the opposition score on themselves in two straight games. Own Goals has now scored five for the Stars and Stripes at World Cups, which ties Landon Donovan for the all-time lead. (The only country that Own Goals has scored more for is France.) I’d write a fight song celebrating it here, but Own Goals can turn on you in a heartbeat, so I’ll just quietly appreciate Own Goals’ performance in a USA jersey.

What happened with the Turks?

I had them rated as the most talented squad in Group D, and I still have them rated that way, but they are now a dead team walking, while Cape Verde, Curaçao, and Qatar are all still alive. (Let that sink in.) Contra other pundits’ predictions that Türkiye’s defense would be their Achilles heel, it was their offense that failed to break down two opponents who sat deep and bunkered in. That’s inexcusable, especially considering the fact that

they spent the entire second half against Paraguay playing one man up after Miguel Almirón’s red card ejection. The international broadcast showed one Turkish fan giving his team the finger as they walked off the pitch, and you could see his point of view. Türkiye captain Hakan Çalhanoğlu has now received a harsh and very public lesson in keeping his big mouth shut.

Why do you get a red card for covering your mouth?

This rule change was effected after a Champions League match this past spring, when Benfica player Gianluca Prestianni put his hand over his mouth to shout racial slurs at Real Madrid’s Vinícius Júnior, whom you likely know is Black. Ordinarily, that offense is punished immediately in the modern day, but Prestianni’s suspension took longer to be handed down because video replays couldn’t show his lips moving. (Also, Prestianni denied making racist remarks and said instead that he was making homophobic ones. The Argentinian player said the latter was perfectly normal, which it might be in Argentina.) Anyway, Almirón concealed his lips against Türkiye and duly got sent off, and now Paraguay will have to face Australia without their playmaker.

I’m still traumatized by Ismaël Koné’s broken leg against Qatar. Has a worse injury ever happened at the World Cup?

Oh, yes. At World Cup 1982, West Germany goalkeeper Harald Schumacher tried to decapitate France defender Patrick Battiston, knocking out several teeth and leaving him temporarily in a coma. Incredibly, the referee called Battiston for the foul, and Schumacher went completely unpunished. (For that reason and many others, everybody hated the Germans that year.) Not escaping punishment was Brazil winger Leonardo at World Cup 1994, when he elbowed USA’s Tab Ramos and fractured his skull. Ramos was America’s best attacker at the time, and he was never the same after that. The Brazilians didn’t even wait for a suspension, sending Leonardo back home immediately, and they proceeded to win the World Cup without him. As for Assim Madibo, the Qatari player who snapped the Canadian midfielder’s tibia and fibula, his immediate reaction showed that he wasn’t trying to injure the player, but I doubt we’ll see him again at this World Cup.

What is xG?

It stands for “expected goals,” and it’s an advanced statistic that can be measured for a team or an individual player. The formula for computing xG takes in many variables and is more complicated than I care to explain. I bring it up because Tunisia managed an xG of 0.05 during their 4-0 loss to Japan.

I didn’t know a rating of five one-hundredths of a goal was possible, unless a team spent the entire match standing still with the ball. Granted, the Carthage Eagles were in the position of adjusting to a brand-new coach in the middle of the World Cup, but that’s putrid.

Speaking of putrid, what about Ecuador?

After Cape Verde’s historic draw, Curaçao said, “Hold my blue curaçao.” The Dutch possession in the Caribbean is the smallest nation ever to compete at the World Cup, and they managed a scoreless draw against Ecuador. Imagine if the city of Denton had a team in the World Cup that pulled off a similar result, and you’ll understand how big this is. Curaçao goalkeeper Eloy Room tied the record for saves in a World Cup match set by USA’s Tim Howard against Belgium in 2014 (15). Take nothing away from Room, but the Ecuadorians’ poor finishing doomed them. I had the South Americans down as a possible dark horse, but between their lack of goals and their final game against Germany, La Tricolor may be out of this World Cup soon.

And what about Cape Verde?

The Blue Sharks continued their amazing run with a draw against Uruguay. At this point, who would bet against them beating Saudi Arabia or advancing out of the group? If they can do this, why can’t our team put together a run to the semis? (Japan’s probably thinking the same thing, too.)

How will Pochettino approach the dead rubber game against Türkiye?

Pulisic will almost certainly be given additional time to rehab his mysterious calf injury. Beyond that, it bears watching to see if Poch benches all, some, or none of his other regular starters. Resting the ones who have picked up yellow cards is an option, too, because a second yellow in the last group-stage match will draw a suspension in the following game and yellow cards will be wiped clean after the end of the group stage. Players currently on a yellow are: Balogun, Tyler Adams, Chris Richards, and Antonee Robinson.

Will the Turks even bother showing up?

You never know how a team will react to an early elimination. Some teams in the past have indeed thrown in the towel, but others have thrown everything they had at their remaining opponent to salvage some pride. In World Cup 2002, Poland crashed out after two losses but roared back to beat USA in the last group-stage game, a result that could have eliminated the Americans. We’ll see what the Turks do. l

Gone Too Soon

Taking action to reduce premature male death could be the biggest and best opportunity we have to help America and Americans.

BY MARK HENRICKS

An American boy born today will on average live almost five fewer years than a member of the opposite sex born today. In addition to directly affecting in the most profound and personal manner the 1.88 million boys who will be born in our country this year, this burden also weighs heavily on society at large.

Male premature death imposes enormous economic costs as well as incalculable emotional and other damage on families, friends, employers, and others. Basically, it affects any person or institution that cares about or relies on men.

Racer Kyle Busch’s death last month at 41 is a timely and high-profile reminder of how often and tragically American men pass before their time. The winner of more races in the top NASCAR divisions than anyone in history collapsed and died from complications of pneumonia less than

a week after winning his final professional race. In addition to his wife and two children, ages 11 and 4, Busch was mourned by countless motorsports fans, sponsors, team owners, and other drivers.

Like many people, I’ve been personally touched by premature male death. Twenty-five years ago, my father died aged a few months younger than I am now. He passed because of a fatal embolism to which smoking and alcohol use likely contributed. My son, Brady, died almost 10 years ago at 16 of suicide. Suicide is one of the major causes of death in America, and 80% of those who die from it are men.

And it’s not just me and some race fans. Virtually every American has felt the loss of a father, husband, son, or other man who left before what would have been his time if premature male death were reduced. And even those without personal male attachment can be significantly affected by broad societal effects of so many tens of millions of people dying so much younger than the rest.

Men make up almost half (about 49%) of the 342 million Americans. This group of roughly 167.5 million is larger than any other cohort affected by a similar life-expectancy deficit. Two top causes of early death — obesity and smoking — reduce life expectancy for millions, but neither condition is nearly as common as being male.

The loss in lifespan is also massive. The magnitude of male premature death varies over time — more on that later — but currently sits at nearly five years. This exceeds the three to four years of reduced life expectancy for a smoker who puffs half a pack of cigarettes a day. It’s similar to all but the most severe forms of obesity. And maleness is not something most people choose. It’s mostly chosen for them at birth.

It’s easy to see how losing a father, husband, son, brother, or friend can affect individuals. The social impact is perhaps harder to discern, but, once you look, it is massive. To get an idea, let’s look at the economic effects. They may not be the most important, but measuring them is relatively straightforward.

When you add it up, male premature death probably has an economic impact of at least $300 billion every year, using the most conservative estimates. A midrange estimate would put it at over $2 trillion, year in and year out.

These estimates are necessarily imprecise and use figures like the statistical value of a life which are not completely standardized. However, when considering lost earnings to families, lost productivity to employers, higher healthcare

outlays, and other costs, it’s clear that few, if any, social investments offer potential for more broadbased rewards.

Of course, before you try to change something, you need to ask what causes it. The answer’s not simple. Male premature death has many causes. A brief list includes biology, behavior, occupational hazards, mental health, societal roles, violence, and war. All these and more cut men’s lives shorter than the average.

Looking at the details, when it comes to biological factors, men tend to have less robust immune systems. This can make them more susceptible to infections such as Kyle Busch’s fatal pneumonia. Men also tend to have more testosterone, which may incline them to risky behaviors such as driving too fast. Men are more than twice as likely to die in traffic accidents.

On the social front, men are far more likely to work dangerous jobs — more than 90% of the 5,000 or so fatal on-the-job accidents each year kill men. Male social roles also draw them to lifespan-reducing choices such as smoking and drinking. Similarly, masculine stereotypes discourage seeking medical attention for physical and mental health conditions.

A variety of causes calls for a variety of solutions. Fortunately, we can choose from proven effective approaches. Even biology can be overcome. It’s not set in stone by nature that men will die younger. Several pieces of evidence support this view.

First, consider how male premature death shows up in different countries. In Russia, for instance, men die an average of almost 12 years sooner. In Nigeria, the difference is just six months. Since Russians and Nigerians are biologically interchangeable, the variation suggests that culture and society are as important as biology in male premature death.

History also makes it plain that biology can’t fully explain male premature death. In 1880, for instance, American men actually outlived women. This began to shift in large part because of better maternal care following labor and delivery.

Before washing hands and sterilizing surgical instruments became standard practice in maternity wards, mothers often died from childbirth — a biological factor if ever there was one. By 1933, the effects of better medical care for mothers and other factors meant American men died about 3.6 years sooner.

That trend of increasingly premature male death has generally continued today, with occasional spikes. One occurred during the pandemic, when men represented a lopsided share of COVID deaths. A bigger one happened in the 1960s and 1970s, as American men died on average nearly eight years prematurely due to war, smoking, drinking, and accidents.

Since biologically based female premature death was reversed by social change, it follows continued on page 16

that social changes can, in principle, reduce male premature death. The recent introduction of the 988 suicide crisis hotline shows that this is not just theoretical. More than 4,000 fewer American teens and young adults died from suicide in the first few years after the hotline’s national rollout.

Because suicide is so lopsidedly male, this mostly benefited men and shows how relatively small, inexpensive initiatives can help reduce male premature death. In the case of the hotline, the federal government has budgeted $231 million to fund its national operations for five years. That is a cost of about 15 cents per year for each American. Other promising low-cost moves include campaigns like those encouraging mammograms, which would prompt men to visit their doctors more often, drink and smoke less, and even choose less dangerous occupations.

There are predictable objections to any effort to reduce premature male death. One is that it won’t work, that there’s nothing we can do. The evidence that cultural factors influence male premature death show this is not so. We can’t change biology for the most part, but we can change culture.

Detractors are also sure to say that this would redirect resources from other worthwhile social goals. This isn’t about taking from anyone. We can do this without neglecting other pressing needs.

Today, virtually no money or attention is directed at solving this problem. Because so little is being done now, even limited and low-cost

produce significant improvement. Resource constraints are not the issue.

Any widow, fatherless child, or bereaved parent probably doesn’t need to ask whether

success here would be worth the effort. Others could consider the benefits of having two-income households later in life, expanded grandparent involvement in childcare, longer

marriages and friendships, and more multigenerational family experiences. More pluses include a better return on investments in education, the availability of more mentors, and improved institutional memory.

It’s not going to help only the men who would otherwise die, or NASCAR fans, or my family, or my late son’s friends and relatives. It will improve life for virtually everyone by ensuring that half the people in America don’t die five years sooner than the other half when there is something we could do about it.

Premature male death is as big an opportunity as it is a problem. There probably is no other preventable health risk that affects as many people, or as large a portion of the population, in so many profoundly meaningful ways. If we can reduce premature male death, we’ll all be a lot better off.

So let’s start now. Let’s first recognize that premature male death exists. Let’s see it has large, lasting, and nearly universal effects. Let’s get our heads around the idea that it probably can be meaningfully reduced even if not eliminated. Then we can discuss practical paths to change.

For Men’s Health Month this June, look at a man near you whom you care about — even if it’s yourself. Now think about what it would be like if they were gone, finally, completely, and irreversibly. Wouldn’t you like something done to keep that from happening? I would.

Writing this article is an effort to do something by starting to shift attitudes. It may take a while for that to happen, and it’s too late for my beloved son Brady, Dad, Kyle, and uncounted millions of other men who died before their time. But, hopefully, it’s a start. l
