PBP: [LA FINAL!] USA vs Mexico, June 25, 2011, 9:00pm EST, Rose bowl Stadium [R]

Which still doesn't help us now, does it?

 

Still? Who ever called it that?

We lost to a better team. That's what usually happens.

 

So how many home losses is that for Bob? 9?

 

LOL

Everybody wouldn't have been calling for Burntstein.

NOT

 

******** the whole team. Way to put up a fight at home.

Go film another insurance commercial, Timmy.

 

At leash JJ did not get a red

 

I'm sad.

 

rose bowl belongs to Mexico...

 

After we went up...

oh well good match... I'm over it

 

Except for that thing he did in the first half.

 

pretty clear they've improved more than us

 

Wow did anyone else see the look on Bob's face. He was actually showing emotion. And that emotion looked like fear...

 

howard - awful game
lichaj - awful game
cherundolo - BIG loss in the back
dempsey - apart from nice assist, pretty poor game
jones - decent game but made some critical errors
bradley - poor game apart from goal
donovan - mediocre

......

actually nobody really had a good game overall except for adu. boca played okay.

 

They probably doped up before the game.

 

Dont forget his great scoring record the last 2 gold cups....9-2 in favor of Mexico

 

We're just going to be hoofing it into box at the end anyway. Better to have another 6-footer in there than a liliputian.

 

US defense has been dreadful, but this might be the best Mexico team they've had in a while, at least on the attacking end. We've created multiple chances, just not clinical enough.

 

One hell of a game, but we choked folks.

 

I'm still waiting for him to line someone up.

 

He didn't refuse. Also maybe someone can answer this for me but I can't remember but if it is a FIFA sanctioned event I thought clubs can't block players from going with their national teams (i.e. Gold Cup, World Cup Qualifying, etc.). Also would have prefered Chad Marshall to have been called up if we aren't going to use Gooch then we could have put him in and moved Boca outside. I do understand not putting in Gooch because he hasn't really played meaningful minutes since his injury so form would be a big question.

 

Lettuce be real tea: He's been our savior more times than I care to count. There has not been a better, more consistent player in the history of the United States, Bill.

 

Mexico was a much better team and that Dos Santos goal was a work of art

 

That was a dirty play by Kjlestan but I don't care right now...I HATE losing to Mexico.

 

That was the biggest disappointment. If anyone should take a massive amount of blame it is Tim Howard. He was horrible and really made some poor, poor attempts at saves.

 

Every time Howard has the ball the Mexicans shout "Pluuuuuuuto!" (= Goofy, the Disney character, they call him that because he's tall and dark).

The problem is that Tim thinks they're calling him "Puuuuto!" (= whore). And he gets upset.
