  1. And we're back! Diaby with the debutante goal.
  2. Great save by the English keeper to push over the bar.
  3. Multiple things can be true at the same time. - I support Team USA in international competition in whatever sport. - I am sorry for the ladies they are out. There's a lot of new talent that I'm rooting for. - I am satisfied that Rapinoe flamed out in such a poetic fashion. She is one of the most unlikable sports figures in a while for undeserved hubris. I'm not gloating about it, but karma was served there. - This squad was not as good as they (or the media) made them out to be. They were lazy (never seemed to step to the ball and were constantly beaten to 50/50 balls), they did not move as a team, and there were countless times where they just dribbled straight into traffic, thinking they could just wish their way through - but always just lost the ball. Watching any of the remaining nations still on the pitch show the difference. - The manager sucked, but there was still enough talent on the pitch for the US to have overcome. Am I glad they're out of this tournament? No. Was that a deserved exit? Maybe... maybe not. Was it representative of their play and effort? Yeah, I think so. The gleeful gloating at their exit is unbecoming, especially by those with a single focus... but not allowing criticism of the impacts of the unlikable factors in this edition of the USWNT on the rest of the team isn't a good look either. Multiple things, etc.
  4. This ref is letting the England girls get mauled. Colombia throwing full body shots.
  5. Just saw it... truly enjoyed it. I tried my best to avoid reviews ahead of time, as I knew most of the history and enough of the physics to be conversant, but I saw this and it made a huge Nolan-esque bonus viewing the first time that usually would've been a second or third viewing epiphany:
  6. Wrexham know how to take penalties better than the USWNT. They win 4-2 without even having to take the 5th round.
  7. Scoreless after 90 - to penalties we go at The Racecourse.
  8. Scoreless in the 60th against Wigan in the Carabao Cup.
  9. Justin Bieber wins it for Sweden.
  10. Are you shocked by that? I was expecting it.
  11. 5-3 final defeat... also FYI, Notts County had a rough start, too, losing 5-1.
  12. Season 3 of "WtW" is getting off to a rough start. Already down 2-nil after 10 minutes in their first league match.
  13. Golden Corral commercial with a Hispanic grandfather, mother, and 2 kids. Painfully over-the-top Hispanic accent from the kid actor, to wit: "... fried cheeeeken" "... you're from My-yammie"
  14. Through, but will lose the next match. No vision for any other victories in this tournament.
  15. Is Tony Robbins coaching Portugal?
  16. We're going to have 8-10 minutes of stoppage.
