So i posted this earlier but it was during heat of battle and I wanted to see what the soccer guys think On a scale of 1-10 how much of a victory was drawing here for the US? Conversely, how much of a disapointment was drawing for England?
-
I didn't realize the Sox made a blockbuster trade last night. /hahaitssofunnytomakejokeswhenfreemakesatypo -
So basically with 1 point here, we only need to get 3 more points to feel really good about advancing. There's going to be a lot less pressure to have to beat the other 2 teams than there would have been if we took 0 points here. I don't know if the less pressure is a good or bad thing, but whatever.
-
And the USA is still undefeated lifetime against England in World Cup history!
-
Any doubt MOTM is Howard?
-
A draw!!! Nice showing.
-
I wish the NBA could institute a running clock and quick restarts after fouls and out of bounds plays. Would really help reduce all the referee bickering that drains the game.
-
Were probably goin to see a lengthy stoppage time aren't we Edit: yeah 4 mins
-
I'm surprised we didn't see a booking there. US is getting a little pushy. Altidore is out.
-
Stop showing the damn T-Storm warning. I've lived in Chicago most of my life and I've never heard of Newton county, so shut up about a T-storm down there.

On a scale of 1-10 how big of a success is a draw here for the USA? An 8? Conversely, how big of a failure is a draw for England? Maybe a 4-5? (with 10 being biggest failure) Obviously not as big to England because they are going to advance, but still not what they wanted here. C'mon USA.
-
USA looks tired and is getting beaten to a lot of balls. There we go. Findley with a nice showing but this is a good move for the last 15 minutes of a tied contest against a superior team.
-
Seriously, it almost seems bizarre that he hasn't subbed anyone yet.
-
Prediction: By the end of the World Cup, Robbie Findley is going to be a name that the casual US sports fan is familiar with.

I've been way too into the Blackhawks lately...after that one went in my brain instinctively queued up Chelsea Dagger and it began playing in my head. I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm actually kind of sick of that song right now lol. Every replay that show of that goal, it looks worse and worse. That's just embarrassingly awful to give up in the [expletive] world cup.
-
GOOOOAAAAAALLLL!!!!!! Demp!!!!
-
please be ok.
-
Well the US has been able to keep possession quite a bit, but whenever they advance the ball too much it looks like England clamps down. Also, while England isn't being extremely aggressive offensively, they are getting much better chances looking for breakdowns in the American D and then making their move.
-
Complete breakdown. We knew this would be a weakness but geez.
-
Fudge
-
So if the Cubs and Sox are playing for something called the "BP Cup", does this mean that the Cubs are now in the lead for it after losing today?

I'd argue that's a big part of what makes championships fun. Of course the winning of it is the biggest, but interactions with rivals are up there. -

Just because its not your cup of tea doesn't mean you have to rain on our parade. This is something that we enjoy doing. You have other ways you enjoy success. I actually do this constantly all year round for all sports. I always want to know what the opponent's fans are thinking and saying. I've been given crap from Wings fans constantly over the last 10+ years...it's nice to be on top for once. -

I didn't see it yet, but I'm fine with booing him. He's worthless and his contract (though admittedly not his fault) may hamstring the team for the next few years. Meh, it's a day to celebrate, not boo. I am fine if people want to boo for performance during games and whatnot, but during a championship celebration just be happy and if you don't want to applaud him, just do nothing. I'm sure he feels shitty enough about his crappy year. -
