The_Admiral Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Watching people support Mexico that are Americans is absolutely revolting. Mexico is a rival team, why are we rooting for them just because they are our "neighbors". Sure, if you come from Mexico descent, that makes sense, but I swear American soccer supporters are just downright stupid sometimes. At least half the soccer fans in America root for their ethnic backgrounds over the U.S. Mutant Ninja Turtles. We're like the Florida Panthers of the world. However, there was a fleeting groundswell of overwhelming support for the team in the Deep South. They then quickly lost interest, saying "ohhhh, it's Klinsmann." ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marble21 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 We have not even finished the 2nd game and we are already talking about officials more than the games themselves. Not good. UBI FIDES IBI LUX ET ROBUR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DS729 Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 I swore that penalty yesterday was a fluke, I guess not.It's like we got the NFL's replacement refs out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorinK92 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I just hope this doesn't turn into another tournament of awful officiating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berlin Wall Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Justice! Now Mexico has to win this. I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twi Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 The dilemma of the sports better; picked Mexico to win, but personally would rather see the Yankees and Steelers win the next 10 titles than see the Mexican team have any success. Gotta separate that heart and mind sometimes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berlin Wall Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Croatia against Mexico will be fun. I'm really looking forward to that game. I would still give my bets to Croatia to go to the knockout stage. I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010.

Midway Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Iffy officiating again but 3 big points for Mexico. Tying up Croatia will be key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crashcarson15 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Those two disallowed goals could prove big for Croatia and Mexico in going into that last match—if Croatia take care of business against Cameroon, they might just need the draw.

NEW.ERA Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Time to get a little revenge on Spain. Everyone's against the Dutch and meh, who cares.

Billy B Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Croatia against Mexico will be fun. I'm really looking forward to that game. I would still give my bets to Croatia to go to the knockout stage.Yeah, I still like Croatia to advance. I don't see them slipping against Cameroon and like Crash said, those two disallowed goals could make that third game a lot easier for Croatia.

Soarindude Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 It's never good to see refs screwing up two major calls in the first two games of the World Cup. The Brazil Croatia game would've been a very different game had that penalty not been called.Spain doesn't look like their dominate side they once were after watching them the last 20 minutes. It also sucks not seeing Torres in the starting 11, as his antics on the field are always amusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still MIGHTY Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 That was no penalty. Definitely not a penalty kick. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
