I love the world cup. I cant wait to drink 10 beers in a dark bar on a perfectly sunny day while surrounded by people who talk funny. Awesome!
Well we have talked about this yesterday. I think the US is in a pretty good group. The blogs and sites I am following are all regarding the US as a force to reckon with. England is pretty obvious. They have improved their game under their new coach Capello and I think are a hard team to play. I believe the US meets them first, so the have to be ready from the first minute. Slovenia did knock Russia out and are a dangerous counter attacking side, but not impossible. Algeria I know not much about. I think second place for the US is absolutely possible.
As for The Netherlands. I think it's a great draw. Not too easy and also not too hard. For dangerous Groups I look at Group G (very hard) and Group D... Spain one of the favorites has it pretty easy and so has Italy. Can't wait for the tournament to start...
i don;t think that is actually rein, soviet imposter. prove me wrong,. what is the name of the austalian football club?
The semi-colon gives you way, Tom- drunk posting again.
guilty, wes from the golden boys and the spider bags were in town for an early show yeterday. though i still think i have a valid point when he says "the US as a force to reckon with."
no, he said a bunch of rags are saying that. He knows the US sucks and will only disappoint again, no matter how easy our group is. And Holland will probably gag as well in the later rounds. Why can't life surprise us more often, unless you count a miracle Raider victory yesterday, but the same peacock wouldn't shut up at last sinterklaas dinner, once again confirming that all attention must be paid to him now and forevermore, so free will is a myth and we are merely playing out the determined string genetics and conditioning have laid out for us.
And that's your morning happy thought.
What is the Australian team name, anyway?
socceroos
whoa
I know pretty damn lame... All teams in Australia have animal names. Don't ask me why. I still stand by that the US should get second in that group... After that anything is possible. And yes, The Netherlands will choke again in further rounds... I am with Ken a few surprised would make life a lot better.
