Uh, hello? You wouldn't get the Canucks supporting the Yanks would you?

YA but......this is different!.....somehow...

Of course, we could all be totally wrong and the US could beat Italy 5-0 and Ghana 7-0 and advance through. I would not put cashon that outcome though

But they don't have to do that to advance. They can beat Italy and Ghana 1-0 each and still advance if Costa Rica wins out, right?

Yes, but it's Czech Republic, not Costa Rica - they are in Group A and out today.

Yes. But he's probably not reading the OOTP forums at the moment
