cant believe theyre ranked 5th in world

Its cause they play idiot tournaments like Gold Cup in an idiot division like CONCACAF vs idiot teams like Canada The Bahamas.

Those idiots win those idiot tournaments cause theres no good teams and thats where they get their points from.

Ranking systems changing after WC06, theyll be ranked like 30th.

you'll get the point :o)

I'm embarrased tbh. :/

It would be much worse if Baros was fine and Koller did not get injured...

Kooller?

Yes, it's Cooller, he owns @ soccer just as he does @ quake

That FIFA ranking is a bad joke.

It's almost impossible to provide anywhere near accurate rankings in Football when a world wide tournament is only played once every four years.

shud be ranked from the last 2 world cups imo

How would eight years have any relevance to today?

coz quite a few players wud still be playin from then....include euros too
doesnt really matter tho unless the rankings made seedings so who gives a shit

Yeah like Kasey Keller!

he played in italy as well, so any worldcup works for him :P

Yeah :D (well he didn't play, but he was in the squad!)

the match was sad.. the ranking is shit..

ghana btw.. has a very nice attack.. they cant score goals though

=))) Essien is not bad
Czech vs Italy is gonna be a good one!

not a very nice attack if they can't score - someone needs to tell them to 'put it in the back of the fuckin net'

i guess you dont get strikers that easy ..

Reality Czech for the USA ^_^

Are you a girl or is that just a really gay first name?

its a really gay first name

its a really gay first name

tescos

God-Damn Emos!

shut up before we invade your country

it was disgusting, seriously just vomit-inducing play

I didn't see the game, but it's hardly a surprise. Hopefully, they can do better in their next game

US of A should stick to their Baseball World (<-- ROFL) Series

World (<-- ROFL) Series

roflolol!!

I'd really like USA to do well in this world cup, because it might spark more interest in football (soccer) over there. But sadly they got placed in one of the toughest groups so I don't really see it happening. :(

do we need 'em to be any more prouder?
let them get their ass kicked so i wont have to hear about it from some fat patriot on Jay Leno.

we don't need them, but why not? heh.

it's not like they're gonna win everything, but a few won games and maybe advancement to 1/8 wouldn't be bad.

a potential 300 million more footballfans. why not? i can't wait till football becomes culture in china, they wil be awesome i tell you.

too bad. never going to happen. if you want the US to get interested, you need to make the sport interesting.

interesting.. like baseball?

*knegg'd*

uhh, sure, if you find baseball interesting.
however, your interest in baseball does not make baseball itself interesting.
sorry to disappoint you.

edit: I'll change my sentiment because after seeying your previous work i can tell which way you will spin your answer , lets see if you can guess what my initial response was though, that is perhaps far more interesting

let's see if you could guess that I really wouldn't care what your response was.
your antiicipatory system seels to have failed.

Koller was like Cooller for USA. h4h4

lamer than a wooden leg

USA can gb2baseball plz

I was hoping US would do decent. Football needs to be popular here also =(

too bad they'll lose against italy too.. and ghana also... =\ fuck =((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

Oh and women's football team in US rocks :D suprisingly women's teams don't matter much here hehe. If only men's team could do better so Americans would embrace it.

why would the American team's success cause embracement? you seem to be implying that the average American has some sort of weird, built-in mechanism that can see nothing other than American domination in every aspect of the known universe.
I sincerely doubt that is true. I think more arrogance comes from European countries, though that may be more of a product of insecurity, rather than genuine arrogance (were the such a thing).
Americans simply will not become interested in watching soccer, since a majority of them find it to be incredibly boring and stupid. (myself included)

american football is a MANS game

I find the majority of Americans (including you) to be boring and stupid.
edit: typo

congratulations.
I'm quite flattered that I'm an American majority, too.

Care to elaborate? I wanna have a laugh :)

I'm not stopping you.

why thanks, i guess?

"you seem to be implying that the average American has some sort of weird, built-in mechanism that can see nothing other than American domination in every aspect of the known universe."

I'm not implying rather screaming it out. :)

But that aside, in my opinion, there would definately be more support for the football team if they'd perform better at these events.

Haha, it's not built in buddy, it's televised and it's name is FOX.

oh, cool, I wasn't aware that "it's" was televised, and that FOX news (I'm guessing that's what you're referencing?)-a biased, politically driven propaganda machine-was representative of an average citizen's views of the nation that that propaganda is expended into.

Kdawg has a little buddy.

I think soccer is pretty shit myself tbh.

Did you even read it?

Yeah, i think the guy is a moron, but he still has a point that soccer is boring. (World cup is good though.)

soccer is really popular in america. Until kids reach highschool, then they play more interesting sports to them. Or sports that are more popular to everyone else. As people think they need to be cool :p


but i agree euro's are more ingorant. Non stop talk about america this and that. It's all i ever see on forums.

Only reason why I say this is because it was my countrys team who beat them. I lived in the US for a year and I like the concept of your democracy. I just fucking hate the neocons ;]]].
