Yep. 3 pretty bad performances in a row. That isn't going to work against Mexico or Costa Rica.Cliffy6745 said:I know this game is meaningless but this is garbage

Jozy dropped from the team for the rest of the tournament. He can't be thrilled but sounds like it is strictly a fitness issue, though kind of surprising he isn't fit almost a year after the injury, if that's the excuse0

Yeah, he definitely didn't look 100% in the first 2 games that he played in. Plus he got yanked early in both of those games.Cliffy6745 said:Jozy dropped from the team for the rest of the tournament.

The bracket shakes out pretty well. Mexico gets Costa Rica in the quarters, US gets Cuba then Jamaica. Jamaica has apparently looked good but still, it's Jamaica. Should have no problem getting to the finals. Probably going to pull the trigger on tickets this weekend.0

Yeah, pretty nice draw for the US in the knockout stages here. As bad as they have looked, it's really hard to see them not making the final. And that works out nice for you with the final being in Philly.Cliffy6745 said:The bracket shakes out pretty well. Mexico gets Costa Rica in the quarters, US gets Cuba then Jamaica.

Yeah, man. Feeling pretty good about it. 7:30 on a Sunday night too. Should be a good fun day of tailgating.Indifference71 said:

Snagged my tickets. I have to figure a lot of people are assuming its going to be US-Mexico and they are starting to go pretty quickly it looks like.Indifference71 said:

I can't even imagine the potential atmosphere for a US-Mexico game for a trophy.0 -
Glad I got my tickets. Game is pretty much sold out. Figure after Sunday everyone is banking on US-Mexico.
Get it done tomorrow!0 -
That's awesome. I've still never seen the U.S. in person. Unfortunately they don't schedule many games for them in Chicago anymore since they never seemed to have the homefield advantage when they play here.Cliffy6745 said:Glad I got my tickets.

Early start time tonight. Shouldn't be much of a problem getting past Jamaica, but still can't be looking past them.0 -
AHHH...Fucking nervous about this game0

Tim Howard coming back after the Gold Cup0
-
I wonder if he'll get the same treatment that Donovan got after he took his break. I really like Jurgen, but still can't help but wonder if the World Cup would have went differently had Donovan been on the roster like he should have been. The move looked especially dumb after Jozy went down.Cliffy6745 said:Tim Howard coming back after the Gold Cup

Sounds like he and Klinsman have already talked about it but we'll see.Indifference71 said:

Yeah, would have been nice to be able to come in at the end of those games.0 -
Well....this is absolute aids0

Fucking kidding me0

Wasn't able to watch the game. What the fuck? Jamaica? Really? That's bad. Really bad.0
-
Just bizarre. One off a long throw in then Guzan apparently reached outside of the box when throwing the ball. When does that get called? When they scored I swore they were winning it, then they threw their strategy that was working out the door and just started tossing long balls. Garbage.Indifference71 said:Wasn't able to watch the game. What the fuck? Jamaica? Really? That's bad. Really bad.
Considering going to the 3rd place game, but people aren't terribly interested. Was able to get rid of my tickets for Sunday at a small loss.0 -
Yeah, I was just watching the highlights. They always struggle when they are constantly going for the long passes. And to keep doing that when they are down 1 and Jamaica is holding back is just plain dumb.Cliffy6745 said:

Nice that you got rid of your tix. The 3rd place game is at the small stadium where the Union play, right? Can't imagine that will be a very competitive game....2 teams highly disappointed (especially the U.S.) that they didn't make the final.0 -
It was so stupid. Bradley was wrecking havoc in the box. So many chances and all of a sudden they start just crossing it in and Bradley was essentially taken out of the game.Indifference71 said:

Yeah, 3rd place game is at the Union stadium. Someone then has to drive and all that for a game that is probably going to be pretty terrible. Assume I am not going, but tough to turn a USMNT game down that close.0 -

Well Rob does but we don't like to talk about it, it makes him sad.Anything you lose from being honest
You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.0 -
The way Rob feels about soccer is the way I feel about cycling. Can't think of anything more boring than watching a bunch of dudes in spandex riding bikes. Although the big pile up crashes are pretty cool.0

it is....they said they needed something like 3 miles of road to get 400 yards from one point A to Point B. took those frenchies something like 6 years to complete it in the 1940s.Cliffy6745 said:

So glad I did go to that garbage. Out shot by panama 25-5?!? They were all out in philly last night too.
Kinsman better get this team to the confederations cup. Have to imagine Howard is back in the net for that game0 -
Yeah, not a shock that that game was complete garbage.Cliffy6745 said:So glad I did go to that garbage. Out shot by panama 25-5?!? They were all out in philly last night too.

The 1 game playoff will be at the Rose Bowl. They might as well just play that game at Azteca....will be like a fucking home game for Mexico. CONCACAF just can't pass up a big payday because they know they'll sell out that place. What a fucking joke. If they wanted it to be fair, they should play it at a neutral site in one of the Caribbean countries.0 -
Man, jurgen makes it tough sometimes. Plays bedoya out of position and takes him out before the half...rough0
