  1. Bulgaria concedes an away goal to Czech Republic, so Denmark might make it without the 9 goals now.
  2. Denmark converts a penalty in the 11th minute to go up 2-0.
  3. Denmark and Malta are under way...and Denmark scores right away. 1 down, at least 8 to go.
  4. Jozy Altidore named captain for tonight's game.
  5. Well, at this rate they could play the return leg with 6 Ghana players and still qualify. 6-1 Ghana in second half injury time.
  6. Egypt drew a penalty in the 41st minute and converted, but Ghana scored again.
  7. Ghana shredding Egypt's defense early, 2-0 twenty minutes in.
  8. Another fun scenario is that Croatia doesn't even qualify for the playoff if Denmark can out-win Bulgaria by 8 goals today. Denmark is home vs Malta.
  9. So for those scoring at home, root for Poland, Turkey and Slovenia (and the US, obv) today.
  10. Here's what needs to happen for the USMNT to get a seed at the World Cup: - USMNT win at Panama - Netherlands loss at Turkey - Switzerland loss v Slovenia - England draw or loss v Poland - Three of Spain, Uruguay, Portugal and Croatia fail to qualify for World Cup. If all that happens, the US would pass the Netherlands, Switzerland and England in the FIFA ratings (to be 11th), and three other teams ahead of them (Spain, Uruguay, Portugal, and/or Croatia) would be out of the draw. Odds of all that happening...about 1 in 27,000. Guaranteed seeds in World Cup: Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Germany, Italy, Belgium
  11. The Western Conference is 26-8 against the Eastern Conference so far this year.
  12. The likeliest scenario at this point is that Mexico loses and Panama wins. Mexico is going to have to root hard for the US, or hope that CR doesn't care.
  13. If Panama beats the US and CR beats Mexico, Mexico still finishes 5th and misses the playoffs, unless they outscore Panama by 2.
  14. USMNT wins the hex! Also 5-0 at home with a clean sheet.
  15. There's two.
  16. Finally put one on net.
  17. Ouch, Denmark.
  18. I guarantee you there will be behind the scenes shenanigans at FIFA before 12/06 to get "appropriate" countries seeded :roll: I was referring more to the 6-1 score of their match more than FIFA related shenanigans.
  19. Netherlands apparently really wants a seed.
  20. Croatia 0-2 Belgium at the half. If that result holds, it would bump Croatia out of the top 7 in FIFA in place of either Netherlands or Belgium, pending the result of the Netherlands game later.
  21. 8 WC Final berths can be clinched tonight: Belgium, Germany, Russia, Switzerland, Honduras, Chile, Colombia, Uruguay.
  22. Have you seen the NFC East this year? The entire division has nails in coffins, and yet someone will make the playoffs. Washington is a half game out of first at 1-3 and probably has the best intradivisional win.
  23. I changed my mind... Bears 55 Giants 13 Cutler 6 TDs, 3 to Marshall, 3 to Jeffery Forte with a rushing TD, 2 FGs by Gould.
  24. The original article is a good read: http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2013/10/10/blackfeet-elder-says-rick-reilly-misquoted-him-wants-redskins-banned-151696
  25. I'll go with Bears 41, Giants 9, because [expletive] pessimism.
