The Czech's beat the US today 3-0 - ouch........that sounds like a severe butt kicking in terms of soccer scores.

And the US has to play Italy next. ugh.

I've been watching some of these games. Good stuff.

The Netherlands looked awesome the other day in their opening game. I think they need a little more orange in their uniforms though. ;):D

yeah...i found it funny...
all the US reporters and commentators are all saying "oh, US is underrated...how are they going off at 80-1 to win it, thats ridiculous"

and then they get trounced by the Czechs...haha....

I'm rooting for England, but have always loved the dutch and their Orange uniforms...they look to have a good young team this year and should be exciting to watch.

I didn't even bother to watch the match.
The US squad is so uninspiring.

What's worse is the friggin announcers.
Thank god for the mute button, it's almost better watching the games on Telemundo.

The match was ugly. No serious threat from the US for most of the game. Had possesion for nealy 70% of the time with only like 3 shots on goal. That is sad.

Ghana looks good right now against Italy, could get even worse for the US team when they play later this week.

hopefully that won't be the case and they'll bounce back.
If they decide to show up and play like they mean it. That game was pathetic. Beasly could have sat on the bench, he was that effective. Nearly every pass he made was backward. The whole team pretty much waited for the ball to come to them instead of working to get open...no initiative. Hopefully Arena woke them up and reminded them where they are. If not, they should head home now.

I watched parts of it at school today, ive never really watched it b4 and it was pretty crazy. It was held in Czek right? it was so cool when they just took that guy out on a ghetto stretcher, not cool that he got hurt though

US Soccer... hehe - the last WC was a bit of a fluke but US soccer fan's wouldn't hear any of it. Hopefully the overhyping & cockiness will die down now. As I said before, they won't get out of the group stage. I hope the pack it back home winless. Trinidad & Tobago looked better than they did :)

The Dutch are allready fighting each other. Pretty typical stuff, look for a quick quarterfinal exit from them.

You can't get 11 Dutchmen to agree that the sky is blue, so that's not a huge surprise...
