2010 FIFA World Cup
[center][url=http://vevmo.com/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=6803][img]http://vevmo.com/imagehosting/15504c1189216a7f3.jpg[/img][/url][/center] I know that soccer is a dying sport in the US (that is, if it ever even got off the ground in the first place) but I always enjoy watching the World Cup. The first games are tomorrow (South Africa-Mexico at 4:00pm and Uruguay-France at 8:30pm) and the good thing for those who like to watch the games live is that South Africa is only 6 hours ahead of the East coast. USA-England is Saturday at 2:30 ET.

Do you think the US England game will be able to trump the ratings set by Fresh Meat 2?

These horn things are really starting to get on my nerves. I can't imagine having to hear them in the stadium for the whole game. I might have to mute the game soon...

[QUOTE=molds13;185141]Imagine it with a hangover...[/QUOTE] It really is horrible. They need to start telling people that is they bring them to the games they will be confiscated. Keep them for the streets and celebrations outside televised events. If they continue I really don't think I can watch any more of the World Cup. I'm already only half paying attention and if I mute it it might as well be turned off.

John Wayne is an American [/B] The Duke's last classic film, "True Grit," exemplifies how this team is playing. Starting with the opportunity to crumble utterly during the Confederations Cup, the U.S. thrashed Egypt to squeeze into the semis, handed Spain its first international loss in three years and went up 2-0 on the vaunted Brazilians in the final (then the clock struck midnight, but that's a different tale). Just one year later, this same team has stormed back from a fourth-minute deficit against mighty England, and an even deeper 2-0 hole versus a superbly disciplined Slovenia outfit. In other words -- don't mess with true grit, pilgrim. [/QUOTE]
