    No Andy I am permitted to call this team a stinking pile of horsesh*t because thats what they amounted to..
    they claimed Europeans did not take them seriously..
    they claimed they were the ones that would cause problems..
    they claimed that their speed and undervalued talent woudl surprise many..

    simply a joke...Angola kept it at 1-0 and actually kept Portugal at bay for a while
    Trinidad tied Sweden
    USA was ranked AHEAD of most seeded teams and could not even manage to lose respectfully...

    I never watched or gave two sh*ts about US soccer because growing up it was invisible...I mastered my italian through Gazzetta dello Sport and soccer related shows...I grew up playing soccer and idolizing the Italian players and the italian game...US soccer offered sweet fvck all to a kid growing up in NY at the time and in return I extended the 'friendship'....

    I still thought it was a joke and the MLS was nothing more than a Serie C2 team 9at best) playing in big empty stadiums with has-beens ... I thought that the retarded theory of the Landon Donovan's to stay in the US was not really patriotic but would hurt his career because he would only be as good as the MLS allowed him to be..

    I was right...even though I started to believe otherwise...

    They must realize that the MLS will not spawn great talents ... they want to play against the world's best?? they better start understanding how they play and flourish under competitive leagues...

    Io non ho paura... didn't they make a film about that one?
    Yes they did, which helps. The book isn't written in easy language per sé, but if you watch the film first it should be well do-able. Just a thought.

    Il nome della rosa seems a tad too difficult at the moment. It wasn't easy in Dutch either TBH. I'll check those books out though.
    Yeah that one's not easy.

    Sorry andy, but the ?US got trashed. I was sitting in row 2, it was SICK. The players were a matter of feet away, and rosicky's first goal was the craziest shit ive ever seen live.


    IMO, italy should be worried. I thought their attack was alright but defensively they were full of holes.


    Tonight im going to brazil croatia, just bought a croat flag, purely out of hatred for the annoying yellow people :weee:

    But you hate the USA, which it is your right to hate whomever you want. All I ask is that you hate the USA for legitimate reasons. No, world domination is not legitimate, that is coffe house revolutionary idealism but not reality.

    Now, I rather like the USA, but there are things about it that I do hate. So, because I like you, I am offering you a valid reason to hate the USA (one that you will love):

    "I hate the USA because . . . Americans think that September 11, 2001 gave carte blanche to all those fucking Christian freaks to come out of the shadows and parade their religion around."

    And let us not be too critical of Francesco Totti. He did yesterday what he has done in every match in the blue shirt: Fucking nothing (except for take a shirt away from someone who might actually help). Totti can only play in the Roma system, and that is why he will be never be footballer of the year.
    Who said I hated the USA for some delusional American morons, such as your president, who think world domination is acceptable? I am more than aware of the fact that is not at all the way every American thinks.

    I do hate the USA for the reason you just named there among others, all of which are pretty valid. Nevertheless, I don't understand you all take it so seriously as me hating the USA does not mean I hate every American.

    I think the US are the greatest team at the tournament.

    We were so good against the Czeska Republika!

    I am in Duck Pado, so why not come over and eat Jenna's pussy while I have a brew and chill?

    I shouldn't. I'm taking 2 weeks at beach beginning June 24th. For now, it's just drinking beer and watching da futbol.

    Oh? Yes, I started to watch that match, but 16 minutes of mind-numbing Belgian tactics and my brain slipped into a coma that lasted 4 months. Doctors have warned me to stay away from Belgium matches on the television.
    Actually Belgium was quite entertaining in 2002 and not defensive at all. But hey, if you want to joke about Belgium's record in the WC, so be it. I couldn't care less really :D. I'd be the first one to agree that Belgium at the moment is nowhere near a WC spot though.

    and the what the fuck has Belgium ever accomplished?
    - finishing fourth in the '86 WC (beaten by Maradona in the semi's), while haven beaten Spain and the USSR
    - being raped by brazil and some jamaican ref who sure was high in the 1/8's of 2002
    - not missing a single WC between 1982 and 2002. Six world cups in a row whithout organising one: only Brazil has done better (they never missed one).
    - Belgium's best ever squad lost in the 1/8's against England after a David Platt goal in the 119th minute

    but for the record, the USA have beaten Belgium 3-0 in the 1930 WC in Uruguay.

    I don't care if you do hate every American or not, but I do get annoyed at your constant moaning about things the I know are untrue steroypes of the USA. All I am saying is that you should hate based upon the true evils, and not the false and perceived ones.

    And through all of this, I would still like to poke you in the poop shoot.

    How exactly is world domination an untrue stereotype? If you want I can name arguments on which I base that opinion. The fact I think the American government act like they're the police of the world is not the same as me thinking the American people are out for world domination though. Big difference.

    My Italians have also been in every worl Cup in the period you mentioned (1982 to 2002) and 10 others. 16 in total. If you want to compare World Cup pedigree.

    My point to Andries was that he should examine his Belgians record before pointing at a very similar USA record. Belgium does not even have the excuse that the Americans have of its best athletes playing in Basketball, Gridiron Football, Baseball and Ice Hockey. So, I was not slamming Belgium, just showing the similarities to the USA's record.

    a) It's not similar, ours is simply better.
    b) We're what, 50 times smaller than America?

    Don't tell me. Tell the Kosovars to just chill and let the Serbs massacre them.
