World Cup!!!

Altidore was running in practice today. That's good news.

I still wish they would have included Donovan on the roster.

Donovan has been terrible and out of shape all mls season. I appreciate what he's done for USA soccer. But IMO the options that they have now are better than LD now.

Glued to this Brazil-Chile game. Watching the whole game not even knowing who I want to win . . .

Saturday market will have to wait

It would be hilarious if Brazil lost.

Does a shoot out involve actual gun play?

The guy has been so money for us in the World Cup though. You're much more knowledgeable about Futbol than I, but LD has always struck me as a guy who elevates his game at the highest level.

He def has elevated his game in the past for USMNT... But there are a loooooot of miles on those legs. He played a lot when mls was in offseason. He's still a good player but IMO the national play on World Cup level has passed him up.

I actually LOL'd.... Well played.

 

[Wheels]

OMFG that cross bar

SOCCER IS BORING!!!!!!

Given the venue, that would have been one of the most dramatic goals in world cup.

Who you for wheels?

 

[Wheels]

ID RATHER WATCH REAL HOUSEWIVES OF CUPCAKE WARS THAN THIS!!!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Watch, there will be 300 laser pointers aimed at the Chilean goalkeeper's eyes.

In this match? I can't help but go for Chile here. Overall Ned and USA

I love a good upset, but Brazil being the home team and the energy/drama they will continue to bring to the world cup, I'm for Brazil to move on. But major respect for Chile . . . can't say they don't deserve it if they win.

Yeah it's hard to imagine a world power losing this early at home. Crazy stuff. No better sporting event in the world than this tournament!

Announcer said soccer comes right behind oxygen as needs in Brazil (or something like that)

 

[Wheels]

Immense pressure for Brazil here at home for pks.

Yep and what a great quote!

 

[Wheels]

Nervous and I have no dog in this fight!

 

[Wheels]

Ho-lee eff!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

They should forget about playing the regular game and just do that shoot out thing. I'd watch more soccer if it was nothing but shoot outs.

I effing hate shootouts! So much of it is luck. With goalkeepers guessing which way to go cause how easy it is to score. Big time games relying on luck hurts my heart!

 

[3RA1N1AC]

i do wish they would just keep playing, maybe give them extra substitutions or something

 

[3RA1N1AC]

that first goal by james for columbia was amazeballs

 

[speeds]

Goes ahead of RVP's header as the goal of the Cup so far, IMHO.

 

[Wheels]

Mexico dominated that game until they scored. Holy crap what a cruel sport

 

[3RA1N1AC]

a couple mexican guys here had to go perform (jugglers) seconds after the pk went in, crushed

Robben the flopping Dutchman to the rescue!
