Boy, USA sucks. 3-0 against the dirty former communist regime Czech's. Lets get ready for another early exit...

I'm rooting for England. Nothing better than getting drunk at 8am watching a futball match at a bar with a bunch of rowdy englishmen. I haven't done it yet, but want to do it during atleast one match this Cup.

Where do you plan on finding rowdy Englishmen in Texas?

Why at an English pub, of course! Tap a keg of Guinness and they will come.....

That's Irish. Try Black and Tans maybe.

Won't the Irish come, instead of the English?

Very pathetic play by the US. I expected the game to be evenly played with the US winning 1-0. Did not expect the blowout.

Today's game to watch, Switzerland (go!) vs. French.

They did look pretty pathetic. Trinidad & Tobago looked better.

That game was a bummer after all of the hype that this team got.

Too bad the Communists, err, Croatia lost today against Brazilia.

I wish Canada had a team that could compete. The one and only time we made an appearance at the World Cup was 20 years ago. It sucks not being able to join in on the world's biggest sporting event. <Jumping on England's bandwagon>.

I was expecting the USA to lose 1-0, but they didn't even show up. This team had a golden opportunity to pick up the casual fan in this country and they blew it. I think they can beat Ghana and will hopefully tie Italy, but I don't see them advancing to the next round, and if so, they'll lose in the Round of 16.

I'm loving the Netherlands and their one touch play, although it only resulted in one goal. I wish Robben didn't play for Chelsea or I'd like him more.

I still think England needs to step their game up if they're going to advance far into the tournament.

Co-sign.

So far I have 3 teams I'm rooting for since none of my "countries" are competing :-(

Germany, Spain and Italia..

No offense, but U.S. ain't ready this season. But I still want to see them play on saturday.

I agree, there was too much hype surrounded around this team, it's like that they forgot that this is PROJECT 2010....and that we're not expected to do well this time around.

My three teams are The USA, England and Holland, and the latter two are doing well (and have advanced to the next round) but could and SHOULD be playing MUCH better than that.

wtf! Is that ref that called the red card on Pope the same douche who called the red card on Mastreoni?

I'm gonna bust some foolz up man!
