Some Confederations Cup Questions

How unlucky were were against Italy?
How bad is Brazil's national anthem?
Shouldn't Bob Bradley be teaching me History of Latin America or something like that? I swear that guy doesn't even blink.

No but seriously, we were at our best against Italy. Altidore and Donovan, Onyewu, Demerit, really solid efforts.

I only got to see the first half of the Brazil game. What an embarrasing performance that was. We didn't belong on the same field as them. We were scared, outclassed, just pathetic. No need to single out people, it was a collective effort, but Clint Dempsey needs to show me something against Egypt or I'll have Freddy Adu in there right now.

Sucks that they two groups were so poorly balanced, but we are clearly the fourth best team in our group. and we sit right where we belong.

nice job magic

yeah, you jameer nelson. nice job. the worst part about it is the lakers aren't even that good. they've been better. i thought everyone was better last year. i'm just glad the cavs aren't around because they really suck.

simmons' recaps of the fourth quarter are awesome. i'd suggest everyone read that, even if you don't like basketball. the part about the dad calling the ref turds is the best. and after watching some of that officiating, I might want to alter my previous statement about refs in football having a worse and potentially more ngative effect on a game by blowing a call, and that still holds true. but boy, nba refs sure are consistently awful.

anyway, on to the confederations cup. it has to be spains to lose considering how bad their group is. but I'm gonna go with the brazilians. don't ask me why. And its not like it would be such a huge upset, they are still one of the most feared countries in the world. so that being said.

i'll have brazil over spain in the final, with italy losing to the hosts in the 3rd place game.

Fed gets it done

and by that I mean beating Del Potro, because theres no chance in hell that he loses to Soderling now. I guess DP was pretty gassed in the end. Still gave it a pretty good fight. Just like Gonzales who only showed us a shade of his dickhead self from the olympics and australia. Good job roger, everyone was rooting for you.
