Question: Which is bigger: Phelps 4X400 relay for the Gold against France, or this win?

Never really liked Donovan, but after the piece on him while he was at Fulham, and now this, I might have to reconsider.

Yea that is weird why we didn't get a point for the England match.. it should be up by now...

The only thing I can think of is because we all picked England to top the group and win the next match as well....

MobileTV has quite a delay. I heard sceams from the breakroom abt 30 seconds before the usa goal. I kind of figured they scored but didnt want to get my hopes up before i saw it for myself.

it's a longshot... but here's to Germany choking again and the Socceroos pulling out an upset to advance with Ghana... that would be epic!!!

yes, im completely new to the game of soccer

and no, he didnt..

not scoring is of no meaning to me... he lost many balls from acting selfishly and didnt create plays.. thus, bad game... if you dont like my opinion.. go cry somewhere else.



bradley and dempsey had good games aside from the obvious blown goals.. donovan didnt even have his best game aside from the goal and a few good free kicks...

I thought they blew that goal because I didn't see the goalie let go of the rebound. Donovan comes through again!!!
