I am very excited. It is on to the win-or-go-home stages!!!!!!!

When we drew with England I knew we could clinch the Group.. US has some of the best defense in the Cup, we play much better when the cards are down and are come-back kings thus far

except it's more important than the final

The Sun's probably already preparing it's giveaway Spitfire poster, in time for Sunday's edition. They're already at it. Tomorrow's backpage headline of The Sun: 'PREPARE FOR GERM WARFARE!'

Couldn't agree more about the Ads. I just recently got a deal on HBO and MAX before that I lived on TCM. The thing I hate about US Football is they have followed the basketball mentality in over hyping the stars. Of all the American sports football is the most team oriented. Lebron can go for 50-13-12 and the team will win. Baseball the pitcher can throw a no-hitter but Brady needs Welker on the other end of those passes as well as o-line to protect him and running game to ease the pressure

I read an LA times editorial which said that the bad calls and lost goals against the US team have "bolstered support for the US team at home; after all nothing galvanizes Americans like a perceived injustice."

I agree, the official motto of the American people is, "Fuck that shit."

when i came to 'merica i tried getting interested in the local sports but it was all 80% commercials 20% game so i said fuckit. i used to go see DC united at the stadium every now & then and that was lots of fun. here i'm close to regular mexico and there's not futbol stadium-- SHAME! there's only minor league baseball and i don't much feel like going. i went to a baseball stadium once (in baltimore) and it was dull as fuck, the only half-consolation was weak & overpriced beer-- no thanks! and the orioles lost, as usual. actually now that i remember it wasn't THAT dull, but futbol is way more fun & cheaper & worth the money & the spectators make a more fun racket.

Shouldn't that be The Daily Mirror?

HAHAHA! I read one of the English correspondents for ESPN say how the tone of the media coverage in the UK would immediately shift to an all out attack on the german team and heaps of praise for the UK squad! ha ha!
