Now that was not only too cool - but too funny!

Fantasy football has been a waste of players today. Crespo is not playing, Borgetti is benched, Sanchez let the Portuguese get in goals (BEST FOOTBALL GK IN THE WORLD MY ASS!) and there was no Deco. What is football coming to? ;)

For the Brits (who understand little about football that has nothing to do with them aka- so similar to Americans it's a wonder we can tell them apart, aside from Brits having better English) - it's kind of a day like having no Lampard, Owen ( :( ), Rooney, Beckham or Gerrard, and then Robinson lets a couple goals slide past him. IT SUCKS MAJOR!

Or the dirtiest! Look at the number of fouls. Portugal must have come close to setting a world record of sorts right there.

Ladies, ladies,

Snoopy, GO GERMANS AND GO US !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S.: I'm a fan of Italy today. And I'll be furiously mad, if they draw against Chech Republic.

I feel a celeb story coming on ;)
 
Ok, the Chech got their asses handed to them by a not too impressive Italy. Two to nil. A mintute or two left.

Goddamn, those Ghana players are some beautiful men. *phew*
 
The US is not going to win the World Cup. In fact, the US is not going to play any more in this year's World Cup. Alas!

Yes, football is known as "The Beautiful Game" for that reason.

I'm one Americn that thinks Ghana richly deserved to advance. The US team might as well not have made the trip; they played badly in every game and couldn't score in a whorehouse with a fistfull of hundred dollar bills. :(

A cynical view might claim the referees decided the US's matches -- the questionable PK to Ghana certainly decided today's match in terms of the score -- but the US never played like they wanted to win in any of their matches.

Speaking of which .... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-E6weZIdG8

So I guess Portugal isn't that bad after all (especially after seeing the Netherlands play that poorly against Argentina).

Lets see how that Netherlands - Portugal match will turn out on sunday ... should be an interesting game.

:D @Imp


Weird Harold - I think you're right (nothing new there) and I'm glad (so far) no US Citizen has lynched me *LOL*

When is the portugal game on Sunday? I'd like to see it, but I'll be at mums - might have to sky plus it!

Exactly! The US did get shopped by the refs with that (more than) questionable PK, but they were like a team wihtout a soul in any event.

Looks like the Italians are overcoming the scandal (or else they bought off the refs again :rolleyes: ).
