Pre-match: USA vs. England - The World Cup, June 12th[r]

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

Word.

 

england will win sorry guys

 

Oh, well thanks for saving me the time and trouble tomorrow. Btw, who is going to win the World Cup? I'd like to place my bet on the polska26 sure thing....

 

1950, england lost to a haitian goal....

took 40 years to get to the next world cup for the usa...

and another haitian was born in 1990 who now plays for usa...

numerologists abound, 20 years later, this new haitian rocks england again...

is jozy in the stars??

 

Jozy: Striker of destiny, ankle of athletic tape.

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

yes one hour...

lalas had clark with bradley....don't know why lalas would sit edu..

clark just has looked bad..

and he has spector over dolo at right back???

we shall see...

since when has lalas been so hot about being greek???

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

He's getting older, closer to slipping off of this mortal coil. Connecting with his roots is a way for him to feel connected. Also, clearly Lexi is a guy that likes to feel like he's unique. For his whole life just being involved in the soccer community was enough for him to feel unique. Now, there "soccer community" is getting more populous. So, apparently he's claiming Greece in a kind of neener-neener manner.

No charge for the pop-psychology

 

if i had to bet, i'd bet on england to win....

but i root against that...

england central defense and keeper HAVE NEVER PLAYED together...

that's NOT a good recipe going into any match...

still is gooch healthy enough NOT to get destroyed by rooney....

it'll all be about service.... limit that, and usa is in the game...

for me, i more concerned with a mental letdown after the match...

slovenia is next friday though, more than enough time to be ready for them

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

more he talks though, more you see why he sucked at managment in ny and la...

he's more a pr guy...

the hercules gomez adulation was priceless though...

i'm waiting for mcmeanimem (sp?) to give him a pie in the face...

i did like martinez picks against italy and germany though....

serbia as a darkhorse was one of my picks too...

poor lalas gets outside of epl and la liga, and he barely knows the players...

chris fowler has surprise me, must have been a closest soccer guy for awhile..

you just don't pick it up in a couple weeks of study

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

Bradley was on the DP Show earlier and said that Altidore was starting. He didn't say anything about the remainder of the line-up

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

for me it looks like donovan gets matched up with lennon...

landon can defend when he ptus his mind to it...

i'm more concerned he doesn't get forward enough

 

of course Harkes' stupidity makes it onto barstool

People find enough reasons to shit on soccer for the game itself(through blind ignorance), nevermind giving someone a reason to shit on it.

 

MODS I think it is now OK to close this thread, there is no point to continue after such comment!

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

Well according to espn, BB just said that Jozy is starting

 

Polska told me to sell my shares of BP 6 months ago!!
Why didn't I listen?

 

Polska... Is Elvis still alive?

...also, where is Hoffa buried?

 

Now I don't want to watch the game anymore knowing the result.

 

Elvis is dead, Hoffa is buried in the Nevada desert and I'm sorry, but England will win.

 

Pfft. Shows what you know. Everyone knows Hoffa's buried in the corner of the end zone in Giants Stadium.

And Elvis? He's only resting...

Just like this parrot.

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

Fowler is pure class. For me, his hosting of the tennis grand slam tournaments is the standard for excellence in sports broadcasting.

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

I've got to agree with this. Fowler knows his stuff. Never shows up to a broadcast unprepared.

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

that's the best part. We see so many of these big names espn hires contribute nothing,

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

Help! ABC/ESPN says game starts at 1:30 ET but US Soccer says game starts at 2:30 ET. I am working on Saturday and can't take off three hours (lucky to get 2!)... When is the kick off? I don't need to see the t.v. fluff.

 

Re: When are the starting line-ups for U.S. & England announced?

When in doubt...
