Rather than having many various threads throughout the forum (mostly taking the piss out of the crappy Swedes), let's put it all into one thread here.

England ftw.

Gotta give the Czechs some credit. Both goals they've scored so far have been amazing.

Edit: And the third. Rosicky is too good.

USA played absolutely horribly. They were quite simply playing in lines and essentially just left themselves wide open in midfield and defence. The only player who was actually trying to make some creativity in the side was Claudio Reyna. Very very poor USA, very poor.

Just wait til we bring out the heavy artilery, our heavy artilery. 8 days of shelling the Italy encampment, and we'll probably be able to pull out a tie against them.

We have almost no chance of getting out of group play. We basically got eliminated today.

It's sad how throughly dominated we go today. Bruce Arena did not have us prepared to play at all. Expect him to be fired if/when we don't get out of group play.

OK Mr. Grumpy Gills. I say we still have a chance. We can beat Italy.

Not a single person I know in real life knows we played today or who we play or how the world cup even works.

Face it, beating the USA in soccer doesn't matter because we don't care either way.
