Terrell Owens never ran away from his teammates on a TD celebration. Guy was all about the team.

Still different from soccer players playing "everybody catch me" after a goal

hockey players do it sometimes too

Nice hair band

 

[Eephus]

so Nigeria and Iran remain winless in WC matches....

Nigeria made the quarters once upon a time IIRC. '94 maybe?

The Super Eagles topped their groups in 94 & 98 but lost in the round of 16 both times.

I don't mind mine wet, but prefer it at 45-50 degrees.

They have a special edition for the championship in a black bottle that only costs 4 times as much as normal. I'll see if I can find one and post a picture.

And Bud should be served so cold you get brain freeze to distract your taste buds.

Wait. Is Newly Retired the Andy (andy b maybe?) that used to give financial advice and what not? Light bulb just went on.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Crisis averted

 

[dparker713]

I love how the leader of the largest economy in Europe takes time off to watch World Cup games in person.

Is she the only one with the keys to the German economy?

I guess you're right. A girl deserves a day of every now and then from stifling a continents economy for nearly 6 years running.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Looks like Ghana splurged for a 40" flat screen for the public square.

 

[Buck Bradcanon]

Google homepage representing.

 

[Norman Paperman]

Shooting practice looks a bit suspect - hope they get the bad shot out of the way now...

 

[dparker713]

Damn, the Jack Bauer intro was pretty sweet

Yes, we are the same. Changed my user name when I retired just after the last WC

If they were really representing they'd put US colors up on every country's homepage.

Congrats. You shared some good stuff w/ me back in the day. It was and is appreciated.

USA! USA!

BTW, 16k+ posts in four years is strong work.

As a Ghanan American I am torn today.

Is "Ghanan" African for Albino?

Anyone watched the "Tactical Cam" on ESPN3? How is it different from the regular broadcast?

Pretty fun, you get the view from behind the goal so you see the formation differently.

Single camera from behind one of the goals - I watched the friendlies with that view - gives you a better scope of the whole field. Will probably watch this game with the normal view.

 

[dparker713]

Close shot on Ian isn't great for him. Taylor is dreamy... until he opens his mouth.

Ok I am logging off until after the game.

Enjoy!

Thanks guys. That's what I thought it was. I'll probably watch this one normally, but maybe one of the other matches I'll watch that way.

Final predictions everyone?

Heart says 2-1 Von Trapps

Head says 1-1

That does not always happen. Look at the German goals today.

I know they don't always do it... duh

 

[Joe T]

Prediction:

3-1 Ghanaria

 

[dparker713]

I'm going bold, 2-0 US on a late counter.

 

[dparker713]

The children thing is still really weird to me.

 

[The Gator]

3-1 to the USA and Jozy to be tied for the golden boot afterwards

Ghana's FIFA world rank is 37, we are 13. Why aren't we favored?

0-0 USA

Weirdest thing is the players always act like the kids aren't even there

 

[Slapdash]

If you told me 4 years ago that Beckerman would be starting in the WC, I'd call you crazy. Now I'll just say JK must be crazy.
