Bigger disappointment? France or Italy not advancing out of the group stage?

France, for me. Why do you bring a manger to the world cup that know he will be fired after the cup and doesn't have the respect of it's players.

looks like thats it!!!

 

[Colonel Ronan]

That's it, Slovakia and Paraguay advance.

He wasn't going to be "fired." Most national team managers typically only last 1 tournament. Dominech had already planned to be done with the team after the WC. It just so happened that his reign ended in a complete implosion.

Can't wait til tomorrow. The US has a real good chance to advance to the round of 8. Oh man!

Ghana was one of my favorite teams in the tourny other than the US, though. But I think they are one of the best teams we could have played that advanced to 16.

The world cup is great.

Spain and Chile is turning into a good game. 2-1 so far, Chile pulled one back with 10-men.

Yes a decent chance to advance which is awesome!!! Who would they potentially play next? I have yet to find a round of 16 bracket that doesnt just have all 32 teams, and potential round of 16 matches.

[LameR]

Anybody in the Portland area watched any of the games at a viewing party of some sort (bars, etc.)? Any recommendations for the future?

 

[Colonel Ronan]

How about yes?

Yes.

 

[Minstrel]

Yes.

I don't trust your flippant betrayal of Spain.

 

[Colonel Ronan]

I don't trust your flippant betrayal of Spain.

They have beautiful women.

Findley really should of scored that... And Ghana almost go 2-0 up.

 

[Colonel Ronan]

Half-time, 1-0.
