World Cup 2010

Thats why I think the USA will be hard to beat they are a guttsey team, and I think they will be second in the group and could go a little further.

OK, the Tomcatchymo flirt commercial gives way to coverage of the second half, back to the football...

 

[iian1972]

You flirt away mitch, it was the bp thing I was talking about

What's interesting about Americans and soccer is that....I don't think I know anyone who DIDN'T play soccer as a kid- even I did. There are over 300 million people in this country, and a large Hispanic population. I see pick up games of soccer all the time in city parks. Major League Soccer is rising. This country's soccer program is on its way up, and could be a major world force in soccer land in the next couple of decades. I wouldn't be surprised if, in 20 years or so, the US has won a World Cup. It's bound to happen.

Look at the US Women's team- they're basically the Brazil of the men's teams. They're expected to win all the time, and usually do.

 

[iian1972]

I agree Tom

 

[mitchymo]

If the USA win this year however, i'm shouting BRIBERY AND OR STEROIDS!!!

You're French?

 

[mitchymo]

You're French?

I do have french blood monsieur, oui. Mosly english tho.

 

[flame boy]

So the losing team will get eliminated from the world cup?

My level of knowledge/caring about this is shockingly low.

 

[iian1972]

Not for the first few matches, all teams play each other in a group first flame and the top two in the group go through to the next stage.

Never though we would see u in a footy thread

[mitchymo]

[iian1972]

O yes mitch very much similar to the love England and Scotland have for each other regarding football.

It will be party time here each time Spain score a goal.
