Ghana played some good football, but not against the US. Same as Italy. We were not able to exploit that in either match. I would accept a...
I agree, considering the 4-5-1 has been America's bread and butter throughout qualifying. Hey, if it got you there, then why not stick with it!...
Italy...the new Portugal. Get ready world, cuz you'll be hearing about this tie for the next 4 years...
renewal based on results? that won't be hard considering the competition he's content to face. how does the czech republic prepare for the WC?...
yeah, "sux" is a bit strong. he had a disappointing cup. but i can't help but think back on the germany match in '02. donovan missed a couple of...
maybe if any US players considered attacking they could be overprotected too? i guess we'll never know...
now if we had faced these teams in reverse -- get ghana before they killed the CR and gained any confidence, tie italy, then face the CR when...
good points here. while i believe there is a MJ effect, teams that will win or even just advance in the WC are those that can overcome and play...
it's OJ Simpson all over again! Newsweek did that magazine cover making OJ look more black and ominous in his mugshot. Well, looks like ESPN is...
i guess you're right on target with the title of the thread -- your twisted plagiarism is a self-fulfilling prophecy...:rolleyes:
agree with number one for sure, but i think the americans took some abuse in '02 and many of them don't favor korea very much. the little skating...
I believe if France show poorly against Switzerland, Korea may capitalize and knock them completely out. Korea can be that tenacious, even when...
i'm glad some of you got it -- next time i'll use a ":D" so everyone can laugh at the jokes (maybe someone should tell "Superkorean" to do that...
Overated has-beens!!! They haven't won a world cup in almost 4 years!!!
no doubt the crowd wanted the US to lose at first, but it was more because that would guarantee Korea advancing. At the time people still...
yeah, i'm just still venting cuz i spent over 200 bucks to take my family to that match and got treated to a loss. the best part though was...
don't think the officiating made the difference though. US was cooked 5 minutes into the match (which, by the way, I attended -- not that it's...
"Czech" this out -- we're "Ghana" advance, but "It"aly won't be easy for "US." Now how's that for a bad...:D
US only advanced in 2002 because Korea beat Portugal. With the US losing to Poland, a Korea/Portugal tie or Portugal win would have knocked the...
Let's compare notes and see what the two lists have in common. I say less than 5. 1. Brazil 2. Korea :D
One-too-many? Before '02 they never succeeded. That's why their first victory off of Korean soil will be sweeter to me than the one against...
will they be playing all of the games on tv in korea or only the korean games? i get there on the 10th of june.
i was looking for a Lloyd Benson/Dan Quayle moment here...
good one... bruce has what, 6 more years before he hits cowher's mark? He won't be around that long, but it'll be his choice and no one else's.
This is exactly the part of the article I agreed with most, but it was more the line "after an extended period of exposure to the same...
