ABC, ESPN and ESPN2 have the rights to air the games. All are in HD too...w00t! David Beckham's goal was awesome!
England are gonna win this World Cup...mark my words! Brazil won't because they quite simply cannot defend, so just forget about all the endless Ronaldinho hype. Although we played crappy today, without ever really getting going, we still won in what was an awkward game that could have gone alot worse! I can't wait till Wayne starts playing again, heads are gonna roll! The Sweden Trinidad game was brilliant to watch! The ref was a disgrace but congrats to Yorke and his boys, nice upset The group is playing out well for us. 5 games watched, 59 left to go
I know very little about what each country has to offer this year, but I have heard that USA has it's best shot in a long time to make it far. Stephen Colbert was talking about how sweet it would be if USA won a sport that we didn't even care about, and that it would make up for math. Anyways, yeah, I'm sure I'll be watching a lot of games.
I was glad to see Mexico beat Iran today. The game started a little slow but got really good after that. Acutally I was flipping back and forth between that and Formula 1 on CBS
did u know the only guy who never made any goals while playing pro soccer for 20 years str are the goalies..
I wouldn't go so far to say badass.. The US has not charged the goal, but 5 times, they are barely running to the ball, they are super slow, and don;t really seem to care.. boom, goal czech republic... thats 3! US you fucking suck.. last time I buy the hype.. What a shitty US team. EDIT: Scratch what I said about Czech, yes BlueTwo they are badass.. friend was telling me all about them. "czech republic consists mainly of champions league and nearly champions league players.."
Yeah. But people who love the game said they really only had a chance to put up a good fight. Maybe they'll win next time. I think they gotta play Czech again and then it's Italy's turn.
I hope T & T makes some moves. First match was a draw, if they can win the next two its on to the 2 round
Yeah.... I'm not really banking on the US team doing all that well, even though I'd like for them to. The rest of the world..... they'll probably laugh when out team flops but what can you do? I'm more just hoping some of my other favorite teams will win.
I'm rootin for England or any underdog that might have a chance....I just hope USA wins one on European soil...since it's never been done before :sx:
aren't we ranked 5th in the world going into this? I hope we can pull out something in the next two games.
England and Trinadad & Tobago are dukin it out right now. No score yet though with 34 minutes into the game.... England keeps getting so close man! Come on guys. Give it to Beckham again.
keeping up with the game online at work...T&T is really holding it down so far...they have lots of yellow cards though....
Its all good. If they can pull out a draw and a win the next match they should move on to the second round
THEOBALD Densill (18') 9. WHITLEY Aurtis (19') 15. JONES Kenwyne (46+') 1. HISLOP Shaka (47') 8. GRAY Cyd (56') yowsers.. T&T better slow down
Argentina is walking away from Serbia right now..... 5-0 with 5 min to go..... Saudi Arabia and Tunisia was an excellent game the other day....... Tunisia with the tying goal in injury time, 93rd minute...... Never mind, Argentina just got their 6th goal in the 88th min..... wow........
Ghana looked pretty solid today for sure!!! USA : two red cards? are the refs getting some sort of incentive for each card they give out?...damn well we still tied Italy 1-1...still want a win though, but a tie is a start, hopefully they can get a win next match...
It's funny how here in the US, most people don't seem as excited about the WC as folks across the pond. I was in ecuador when they won the first match and damn, the whole country partied like I have never seen! Glad the us could tie it up. Sad i missed the game though. We should get together and watch a game
It was a good game, US was a much better team than they were last week..... and with only 9 players by the end of it! I was at work but I was able to sneak away and find a TV Now if the US can beat Ghana and Italy beats the Czech Republic, we'll have a shot at the second round....... :sx:
They do, and they're gonna be tough to beat if they play anything like they did against the Czech Republic...... and the US has yet to score a goal of its own....... sigh.......
Anyone watch Korea and France today? Even though a wanted Korea to win, France should of. They got robbed by the officials on one of there goals. The goalie definitely blocked it behind the line. Other than that and a few other shitty calls, it was a really good game.
Italy needs to win also. and i'd HATE to be the keeper for Italy. those Czechs have got to be pissed off. how the hell am i suppose to get my resume done with soccer on all day every day? job hunting will have to wait :fawk:
hehe yea i have a job interview tomorrow at 12 and i am debating how i am going to make this all work
