First of all,
The US played one man down for 40 minutes.
Their defense was good.
They played a gutsy game.
The adage in AMERICAN FOOTBALL is..
On any Sunday a truly bad team can beat a good team.
They tied a good team. It's not our fault we know which net is ours. ;)
In-ger-land, In-ger-land, In-ger-land.........sorry getting carried away!! 7 hours to kick off ;)
COME ON EN-GER-LAND!!!
I found the video for Vindaloo on youtube, what a fantastic song!!!:p
YEAH!!! Italy is winning againsts the Czecks with only 10 mins to go.
Sorry for the US againsta Ghana. Doesn't look too good.
Oh well. Now we have to wait to 2010 to try again.
One of the really neat things about the World Cup is the children escorting each player to the pitch. Is this unique to the Germany World Cup, or has this been done before? I don't remember it happening when the WC was held in the USA in 1994.
Brazil!!!!!!! Ronaldo is back!!!! :D He is PHENOMENAL!!!! I remember watching him last World Cup and being absolutely mesmerized by his footwork. He was looking a bit sluggish during the first two games, but he is BACK. :D
Go BRAZIL!!!
:mad: !!!! WHY did the referee allow that second goal against KOR??? WHAT THE...??!?!? That goal was CLEARLY offsides. That is total, complete BS! :mad:
Oh my...........on Saturday Mexico-Argentina is on!!
LOL so its like the only gals from Mexico and Argentina here are ME and NATALI !! LOL (i wont rivalrize with her at all, after all its just a game to have fun with....... ;) )
i know Argentina is a great team but i somewhat hope we win so we can play again in next round :p , in first place i wanted to get set up with Holland they have a different type of game from us at the other side of the puddle......LOL
It will be a fun game to watch! :D And of course we won't rivalize, I hope both teams do well (but in the end I hope Argentina wins) :oQuote:

You have no idea what's going here at the moment; the entire country is going crazy these days! :)
You see German flags everywhere; on the cars, and the houses.... Since Germany is a country with not much patriotism, this is really something special!
Even Reinhold (my mother's fiancé) has now a flag on his car:

In a couple of hours, we will know who will be our opponent on Friday, but I'm pretty sure it will be Argentina!
Kirsten
Wow! What an awesome match! :D I suffered in front of the TV, and in many times, I thought Mexico would win, but we finally made it! Both teams did it great...
Go Argentina!!
I'm not so confident about the next match against Germany, though...
I'm sitting tight for England at the moment, 1-0 up at the moment *touch wood* but by England's performance so far everything's a bit tense....
Congratulations Kirsten and Natali, I wonder who will win in that match? Argentina seems the stronger team, but Germany have been a little more consistant, should be interesting :)
Well we know that Beckham can bend it....
I didn't know his could toss cookies like that! :eek:
Australia V Italy tomorrow eeiiiii i cannot wait. Can we have some good vibes for the Aussie's please everyone ;), i would realy love to see them win.
