it's over they had about as good a tournament as one can expect from this team they are just not at the level of the top tier teams yet maybe they can build from this but who knows 2018 is far in the distance ....
Thank you Tim fucken Howard! U represented your country with pride/honor. Wow, team in front of u should've done more for you. Unreal, my hats off to you.
Wow. What a game. I could not be possibly be prouder to have this team represent us, especially as someone who grew up playing ODP.
Honestly, incredibly sad this is the end for a lot of these players.
If this is the end of the line for Dempsey. THANK YOU! My god, Thank you. My favorite player in US history. That goal against Ghana goes down in the books. As does the "winner" against Portugal.
Beasley was never my favorite, especially coming into this world cup, but he proved himself as one of the all time greats for our country. HE PLAYED ONE HELL OF A FUCKING WORLD CUP.
Tim Howard. DO NOT LEAVE US. Please keep up this form. Is it possible? Top 3 keeper in the world as we speak, hands down.
Bradley will be back for his best world cup to date in Russia. Had a few errant touches today but I thought he was phenomenal.
Beckerman & Jones need to get a lot of love for this world cup. Played phenomenally. The Jones goal was some kind of beautiful
the US win hard and lose hard too. it was a good run, lots of hope for future with the young guys. Not sure why Beckerman did not play today, he and Jones have been phenomenal.

That was a heartbreaker, but so proud of the way this team battled.
Very sad that this is it for a lot of these guys....hard to see Dempsey still here in 4 years, but you never know. Beasley showed up pretty big in his 4th world cup...definitely one of the best US defenders of all time. And Howard...my god what a performance. He's one of the best keepers in the world....I could easily see him being in Russia in 4 years at 39. Not sure if he wants to though...I pray that he does.
Definitely a lot to be excited about for the future with guys like Bradley, Altidore, Johnson, Yedlin, and Green. Absolutely loved the way Yedlin came in and played yesterday. Loved the way Fabian Johnson played in this tournament as well.
Wondo is going to have nightmares about that shot for the rest of his life...I think I might too. Brutal.

Yeah, man. That was tough but the better team won. Would have been incredible to steal that though.
Agreed on all accounts. I would love to see Howard back. He is awesome.
Oh, man Wondo. That doesn't get easier to swallow overnight.
Was watching the game with a teammate from college. That Wondo miss brought us right back. Had the number 1 team in the country (D2) tied with just a couple minutes left, we were not very good. Almost an identical play and put it over. They scored about a minute into extra time.
I am a man with no country (pride) I am from Canada, and sure, I love it, as I also love being here in the US. But just because I am from a place, or love a place, does not mean I need to support everything that comes from said place/places. Because I live in the US, I can't support Italy? its too weird? does not make sense to you..really?
Anyway, Canada and The USA are made up of many people from many places, I myself speak over half a dozen languages, been around the world (almost), lived in a few countries, I play many sports fairly well, baseball, tennis,golf,football, rugby, cricket etc I should surely be able to pick whatever team/country I like to support, for whatever reasons.
I dont care too much for all that Country pride stuff. I care about people doing their best. That's why at the end I always say, I just like to see 'good games/matches/races etc.
If that makes me a sports fan fraud, Then so be it. -

2-1 is very limited damage. Nevertheless,
what a great sport, football.
The next few world cups and I think the US will be able to field a team that truly is top notch.
Honestly, incredibly sad this is the end for a lot of these players.

Here is a thread for you
http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/121118/are-you-a-sports-fan-fraud/p1
The Americans went 1-3?
And I am supposed to be excited for this team?
Am I missing something?
I would rather watch flies fuck, than watch soccer.
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Agreed on all accounts. I would love to see Howard back. He is awesome.
Oh, man Wondo. That doesn't get easier to swallow overnight.

Definitely a lot to look forward to.
Then go for it.
The Portugal game was probably my favorite sporting event in a very long time.
