WC - Round of 16, USA vs Ghana (Sat 2:30 ET, ABC)

[Jake]

Here comes the stretcher and the magic water bottle...THIS is what pisses off Americans about soccer.

 

[jlb1705]

It wasn't even a flop. He just fucking sat down.

 

[CentralMOBuck]

Bull shit. This is why soccer is lame.

 

[BB73]

FIFA needs to switch to a real game clock, the the ref stops with a signal, and everybody knows when the clock is stopped, and exactly how much time is left.

It's 2010, use a real frickin' clock.

 

[Tonyank]

right here...gotta do it

 

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

Pray for a corner goal

 

[jlb1705]

Harkes is right: The long balls out of the back are a waste right now.

So are short corners.

 

[Jake]

I'm glad we're getting a chance but I've always favored the Golden Goal in OT. The chance to tie it again and force PKs doesn't make much sense to me.

I'm hoping we can do it in this case, though.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

pressing too hard now.

at least the algeria game was fun. :(

Yeah, the short corners are really annoying me.

I agree completely. Let the guy go apeshit on a golden goal, knowing it's over.

 

[AKAK]

One more organized attack...

Come on.

 

[Jake]

Fucking lost 2-1 to Ghana in extra time...AGAIN. :(

It was fun, but I really thought we could win today and move on to Uruguay.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

Fuck. We'd win the horseshoes and hand grenades World Cup every single time. Almost almost almost almost almost.

 

[CentralMOBuck]

Only 3 minutes? That guy wasted 2 on his little stretcher bs.
