I hate watching England, they demoralise quickly and then you get an hour of feckin' long balls that never amount to anything...you're not going to win anything like that.
USA TIES ENGLAND!!!!

Heskey shouldn't be allowed to touch a football in my opinion. Everything he does seems so negative. he hasn't even scored since February. They're using him to hold the ball up to support Rooney, that's something Zamora does well, and he has a rocket of a finish on him, but he gets overlooked due to Tottenham ruining his career by stealing him from us when he wasn't ready to make the step up.ChromeAlchemist said:
Crouch is awful too. I saw him play down the road at Southampton a few times as a fan of football. He's 6 foot 8 or something and useless in the air. All you need to do to stop him from doing anything is stand a defender behind him.
Well, Bunker Hill was a battle between some bitter British people standing on a hill with shitty weapons and more British people running directly towards them. Noone really won, just a lot of people died on both sides. More people died on the British British side because they were attacking. A quick game of TF2 would prove that's always the case. Imagine Bunker Hill was the second point on Dustbowl, with 2 sentries around the base and the blue team have no medic.The_root_of_all_evil said:
What gets me is that the games are so long but in reality there's only a few minutes of actual action, usually around 5%... it's excruciating!John Funk said:If you think NA Football is boring you don't know what's going on.MiracleOfSound said:
Kinda wish I had a TV to watch the World Cup on, oh well.
And my god, the ads... so many ads...
Is 5% the official number? hahaMiracleOfSound said:What gets me is that the games are so long but in reality there's only a few minutes of actual action, usually around 5%... it's excruciating!John Funk said:If you think NA Football is boring you don't know what's going on.MiracleOfSound said:

I could say the same thing about soccer though. I watched the highlights of the US vs. England game which took about 7 minutes. Decent action, but I imagine the other 83 were spent around midfield.
As for the ads, that's how American television works. It's not the NFL's fault.
to be honest, it doesn't matter that it was a draw, both teams will go through, watched the other game in the group and Algeria and Slovenia look terrible, both the americans and the English will go through, just who will go through top as neither will want to play the germans after last nights display beating the aussies 4-0

EDIT: And soccer can be exciting as hell, just not those World Cups, they are boring as hell.
Try watching a game between two teams that are about as good as each other. It can get pretty exciting.
To surprise quite a lot of people here, USA weren't NEARLY as much of an underdog as a lot of people think. They are currently 14th in the FIFA Rankings, the English are 8th. Bearing in mind this is out of 200 odd countries as well.
Either way, I didn't think it was that good a game, a good result for the USA but for us English, the side were not even a shadow of what they were in qualifying and we definitely aren't in World Cup winning form.
I think the Germans or the Spanish are going to win it this year, but I have Ghana in the sweepstakes so I'm all for them doing well

Ok ok ok ok calm down, it's easy to assume that you were misinformed about the time of the games, that's all. Jeez...AkJay said:
Well as long as it wasn't aimed at me, as although I may have sounded somewhat snide I was merely pointing it out, I'm fine with itAkJay said:
OK, so now I have to make this not be a flame war(if possible, not my intent just very excited). What did you think of the game and what chances do you give both England and USA in a potential title run? Who do you think will win the Cup?
I thought the game was great and neither team will win. The winner of the 2010 World Cup will either be Argentina or the reigning champs:Italy.[/quote]
Have you seen Argentina their run-up matches? Granted they don't say much look at how we beat Denmark with a close 2-0 :S (I'm dutch).
And italy has an aged team. I place my bets on Germany,Spain and The Netherlands(biased).

BLU still capped the point though. Hardly a tie. RED may have taken it back as BLU lost a lot of points, but it's hardly something to YouTube.Phoenix Arrow said:
