Their group is amazingly weak. They won't advance far IMO

Of course the fact that alcohol isn't looked upon fondly either.

Saudi Arabia would be fun to live in if it wasnt so strict, hot, and religious...and oily.

And the lower tier leagues are basically even.

I think the top MLS team would hold its own in the Copa Liberatadores.

in the CONCACAF Cup Mexican teams usually dont have a problem with us, though the tide is changing somewhat lately.

My viewing has nosedived since coming back. Not helped by the fact I work every single day this week

And ESPN has AWFUL telecastes.

Besides the Englishmen and Irishmen their announcers are painful to listen too.
And does it not bother our American friends with all the constant zooming in and out and in and out?
I get motion sick by halftime.

Good thing I shell out the money for Setanta sports. I get very low key German language announcers and a camara that simply swings back and forth.

ya I foudn whoever hey have for the announcers with sportsnet are pretty good too. And the picture is jsut awesome.

[rudel.dietrich]

I am also a bit worried about Germany

If they tie tomorrow they would be second and thus probably have to play England.

Then again, with how the English have been playing that might be a blessing.

[rudel.dietrich]

ESPNs one saving grace is games in HD which are nothing short of amazing.

Besides the sound it looks not very different from when I was actualy there.

[piperclap]

Just wait until you ahve to sit through a game with balboa as the announcer.

My god, he is stupid.

a good quarter of my posts have been complaining about the commentating...but the camera angles dont bother me.
