  1. LOL. That was the VAR of the disallowed Colombia goal, but they drew the Colombia line (Red) ON THE WRONG PLAYER!!!!
  2. This rant is good
  3. I think the biggest part is our emotional investment. And us losing 2 games - one of which was a disaster - SUUUUUUUUUUUCKS. But the real thing, at least to me, is the fact that in a lot of the games that are not the US you get to watch two well coached, well disciplined teams. A lot of the stuff we bitch the US doesn't have? Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, etc have it in spades. Watching 2 great teams is fun. And the US games already lack 1 great team.
  4. They aren't going to advance, but Costa Rica might hold on for their win in Austin. They just saved a goal line attempt by Paraguay in a 2-1 game.
  5. This is from the same place. He scored the last one. Let’s see what he does here.
  6. We would have drawn Colombia and they skull fucked us last time up.
  7. Christ Alisson! What was that!?!?!? They didn't make him pay on that boner, but they did score not long after.
  8. So it's a modified U-23 tournament with 3 players over that age limit allowed. But it's also not a FIFA tournament - so clubs don't have to release players for it, in fact they can restrict them from playing. That brings us to the team we're sending and how UNSERIOUS we are, the US was asking for Jordan Morris. He's 29, but has the knees of an egyptian mummy:
  9. Yeah, rooting for Colombia. I gotta say that looks like a foul/penalty to me.
  10. Jesus Dellacamera! He wasn't "pointing at the keeper"!!!! He had his arm up signalling OFFSIDES!!!
  11. I think it was during the England game Sunday we mentioned free kicks. I mentioned how poor CR7 is at free kicks: His good numbers were from early in his career, but he hasn't been good at free kicks for a long time.
  12. A player was clearly offsides, but he wasn't the player who scored (Sanchez). I can't tell Sanchez for sure - to me that's off, then again this could go to the strange line machine.
  13. Colombia scores, but iwas called offsides. I am curious how this check plays out.
  14. Colombia has advanced. Brazil advances with any result. They will also advance with a loss so long as Costa Rica does not make up 6 goals of GD. Costa Rica needs to win and for Brazil to lose and make up 6 goals of GD. Brazil just scored on a beauty of a free kick about 30 yards out. 1-0.
  15. Holy shit. 7’ and CR is already up 2-0!!!!
  16. Because we fucking qualified. It’s a U-23 tournament so think of it as youth training at a high level tournament.
  17. This was the exchange that prompted that first tweet
  18. As salty as Wynalda is, the whole John Harkes thing is starting to make a little more sense.
  19. Never forget this. They could have brought in “the next coach”. But they identified failure and went out and got the best coach.
  20. My mistake - Al Trautwig
  21. Warren Barton is a fucking beating. I can't think of anyone in the both in any sport that likes his voice more than he does.
