OMG.....OMG......OMFG.... I cant believe we scored in the 91st like that.....Im sitting here at work...my heart is breaking more and more with each tick....Im getting ready to punch the computer because it was streaming like ****.....and then.....a ray from heaven and a goal. Guys...I litterally had tears building. What a huge win for this team, and our country. Sat 2:30....looks like either Germany or Ghanna...but I believe this team can win it all. I truly do.....it will be an upset for the ages, a biblical win only matched in magnitude by the Miracle on Ice. But, aint it weird the similarities.....both times our country was hurting bad.....and could another huge under dog pull off the win and shock the world.... Wow....all I can say is Wow..... Oh yeh...and F all of the obvious bull crap refs who must have taken the cash, because two goals that were so obviously good...got yanked away and WE STILL WIN THE GROUP.
really how can anyone hate Landon, he's one the US's most likeable sports figures. I've never met anyone more humble than landon. Props to the US team and Landon, but how about that friggen throw that Tim Howard made to get landon the ball. He threw it as far as some keepers kick it.
Nice Bro... For me, a trip to the Elite Eight would be all I could ever ask of this team. IIRC we have only been there once before, in the 30's wasn't it? And cheers to the English for advancing, Soccer is much more life there and a loss would have been a kick in the crotch ye merry olde...
I don't care about USA anything (no offense)... but since I watch the NBA and only the NBA when it comes to basketball for that matter, then I guess you can say that. I didn't lose any sleep in 2004, and I wasn't overly excited in 2008. I think I was more excited about Wade's come back performance and HIM getting a gold medal than I was with USA getting gold. If Wade isn't on the 2012 team then I will watch just to see a bunch of stars playing together. Won't care about the outcome though. Not "anti-American" BTW. I simply do not have an American bone in my body. That is all.
LOL, that makes me like him even more. Speaking of Donovan, the 50 or so minutes I watched of the game while at work he was tremendous. Great game, great creativity throughout. Bravo, Landon, Bravo
This. He just seems weird and annoying to me. Something about him rubs me the wrong way. Can't put my hands on exactly what it is.
Who likes baseball? I've watched maybe two MLB games this year. I only follow the Marlins, and watch some of the playoffs. I don't like baseball at all. And you don't have to be American to watch and follow the NFL just like you don't have to be Chinese to eat Chinese food.
Your point? I am a Jamaican. Period. What is the problem? LOL @ this thread... you guys are... just wow. This is why people root against USA.
I was referring to Landon, and the people who like to hate on other people because of their success. You don't even have a real reason for hating the guy. You're just another hater. Nobody cares.
if germany wins, we have the easiest path to the final four. england on the other hand would have to get by germany and argentina. good luck with that. we would have to beat serbia nd either uruguay or south korea
That's rather interesting... or not. Why don't I hate Cristiano Ronaldo then? So you don't have any celebrities or professional athletes that you just hate for whatever reason? You love Rex Ryan and would invite him for dinner wouldn't you? Well aren't you just a loving person. You know what I really hate? People who can't accept another person's opinion or views because they are different.
as opposed to argentina? or spain? I would be surprised if South Korea beats Uruguay so i'll assume we have to play them if we win the next one. When you compare the other groups however they will probably be the easiest opponent left in the final eight
I don't hate people because they "talk funny" or whatever reason you have. If I "absolutely hate" someone, it's for a real reason. Now you want to compare Landon to Rex Ryan? Rex actually gives people a reason to hate him. I'm sure if Landon was born in Jamaica you would feel differently about the man. Now let me ask you. Do you hate me more than Landon now?
Well being an American it's kind of insulting when a fellow resident American likes nothing that this country brings to them and appears to root against it.
the four best teams Ive seen so far are Spain, Argentina and Brazil and the Netherlands. The longer we stay away from them the happier I'll be lol
ummmmmm, maybe that indicates my support for the Florida Marlins and the Florida Marlins only? I don't like baseball bro. I'd play it, but I'd never watch it by choice unless it's the playoffs or I'm really bored.
Wait until the afternoon games are won...germany have not even qualified yet and could end up 2nd I need 3 more USA goals to win my bet since all the other bets are going down the toilet
That's stupid. Because I live in America and you're American, it's insulting to you that I don't root for USA soccer? We're talking SPORTS.
Yeah, clearly he is the best player on the US Team next to the Net Minder. But I do think Altidore really came on in this match, especially later, the Algerians resorted to simply fouling him.
