USA vs Belgium | 3PM CT | ESPN | Arena Fonte Nova, Salvador, Brazil
Knock out stage. Trying to make the jump from the 16 teams to 8 teams where the winner of this game will play the winner of Argentina vs Switzerland. No ties...someone has to advance. Detailed preview here via Shinguardian. |

MU isn't worthy of a ****ing Attendee Ribbon.

I have a feeling that all but hardcore fans are going to go into "What is soccer" mode for the next 4 years again. This is the US, though. Anything is possible. |

Yeah, I have no problem with high expectations of USMNT, it's just the 'I don't give a shit about soccer, but if it's gonna be on my TV they better rape faces' types that irritate me.

The expectation of people to walk into a place and expect others to change for them makes me question their stupidity and arrogance emphatically.

Don't see why they don't superimpose an ad on the pitch away from the ball.

Doesn't seem to be a problem with those banners along the perimeter.

It's just another thing that haters aren't going to understand or be willing to understand, that you can have a good showing in the "postseason"/WC when you fail to reach the title game.

same folks who give bronco fans the 43-8 chant, as if our choke job in the wild card round is a better or more palatable finish than a super bowl appearance, even if getting kicked around in it

He's the same guy who harped and harped last offseason about how the Broncos were going to fall off big and Peyton was going to be noodling the ball out there out season. And then they rape our face twice on their way to a SB appearance. He's got the inside track on all things sports. |
