VandyDelphia Mike Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 The US better hope all those missed shots dont comeback to bite themAnd the cliche for any team that leaves points/goals/what have you on the table and off of the scoreboard early winds up ringing true.

Lights Out Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 USA, the Rory McIllroy of SoccerHuh? Rory McIlroy just won the US Open in record fashion not too long ago. If anything, the USA is the Greg Norman of soccer. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwabel Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 That was beyond funny.1-Pia Sundhage...VISIBLE mustache.2- Hope Solo. Don't "go rogue" four years ago saying that you would have won a semi-final, then choke four years later. You had a chance to be the next Skylar Diggins in terms of notoriety (and that does not last long). 3-Womens soccer, well you had a nice month now go back to the hinterlands of America's sports landscape. 4-Even more "cultural code" references.

Kevin W. Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Right on cue, all the bandwagon fans who are actually soccer haters are showing their true colors.I don't care what anyone says, I'm damn proud of everything this team's done and I will continue to be a fan for life.

dfwabel Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I failed to add that Julie Foudy is the female version of Reggie Miller. Lots of game experience and street cred, but just awful on commentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter Morgan Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Imagine they decided Game 7 of the World Series with a Home Run Derby. I love soccer, watched it all my life, but deciding the World Cup Final on penalty kicks is so stupid. You're deciding a game, with a different game.

Lots of game experience and street cred, but just awful on commentary.Yeah, but any ineptitude on her part (IMHO she's not bad) is canceled out by Ian Darke, who is easily the best commentator in all of sports today.

NEW.ERA Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I'm sorry but Soccer is a lot more endurance driven then Baseball, massive fields, these girls are human and they do get tired. I was bloody pissed last Summer with how the Dutch lost, but that is for a totally different reason then this. Japan played very well and showed that by being so resilient. But eliminating the Golden Goal, was the best thing FIFA has done in quite some time. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
