Well, I could root for Brazil, but that would just be wrong.

this is a testament to the Dutch in qualifying.

I will flip a coin and pick between Mexico and Brazil as to which American team I am going to root for. USA is out already.

Can you tell him from me to switch his radar on for Friday's game? He could have had a hattrick against S&M, and that's killing my pick for the Golden Boot.
Signed, unhappy of Cheltenham.

US should replace Donavon with this guy.

Yeah, but has he got the ball control needed?
If so, why not sign up him for the NZ soccer team - then they'll qualify for the WC in 2010.

at first I thought we were dead again Italy, then I thought that we could potentially tie them and the Czechs to get through...then when the scandal broke and towards the end of qualifying I thought the Czechs were tougher, then I discovered Luca Toni and I went back to the tie theory...

now Ive just confused the **** out of myself, and expect little hoping to get a lot.

If we beat Ghana and show up well against Italy, it won't be a total loss. If we beat Ghana and at least tie Italy it might even be a slight gain.

(BTW, USA down 1-0 to Czech Republic as I write this.

)

And after a 3-0 pasting add football to the list.

We need a guy with big balls to lead. The players who choose soccer in this country tend to be too gentle and refined. We need a guy who can impose his will on a game and dominate.

And we also need a new coach. its embarrassing that as rich as we are we have Bruce Arena coaching us instead of Gus Hiddink.

Except for when he spear tackles Brian O'Driscoll on the Lions Tour.

To be honest, we're probably more like the 20-25th best team in the world. I mean, if the rankings were legit.
