Nope.
Brazil pulls one out and is once again looking solid.

Wrong, as usual. Just like the NHL and NBA predictions. Brazil is solid. It says a lot about US soccer if they can hold a tie playing 9 guys on 10. Japan tied. I'm disappointed. And France was looking good lastI checked. The European teams are not as dominant this time around. Who knew? Go Ghana!!

I'm kind of glad Japan could rebound like that. The U.S. should have lost to Italy.

Wrong, as usual. Just like the NHL and NBA predictions. Care to rephrase that? Seeing as how I was RIGHT on both counts...

2-1 Ghana going into the half...wow. We suck!

Man that was a bullshit penalty kick call!
Foul? Yes, PK?? HELL NO.
Final shoulda been 1-1, the refs handed Ghana a free goal.

the refs handed Ghana a free goal. ^ Coupled with the bullshit red cards called in the game against Italy, I think a conspiracy to get the US out of the cup.....

I think it's just because the U.S. isn't a big soccer country. We could kick peoples' asses in hockey, baseball, basketball and American football (and even then we can't do that right), so soccer isn't going to be a big thing.

Or practically anything else, nowadays. Japan won the World Baseball Classic, rugby players are 1000 times tougher than football players and Canada is the land of hockey.

Partly due to all the soccer loving Mexicans pouring in.
