Buehrle>Wood

You guys are getting trolled I do believe

Damn. Probably the worst results possible for group h. But that's looking ahead.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 17, 2014 -> 03:44 PM) There has to be something else to it, if he met NCAA standards they would let him in as would every other team in conference other than NW. It's not true for Northwestern anymore either. I agree though. Probably something more. I'm guessing he missed a class or two or three in high school that is required by Illinois law that isn't otherwise covered by the NCAA, if that makes any sense.

Shocker

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 17, 2014 -> 11:10 AM) That wasn't a very impressive qualifying group. Wasn't really a terrible one either though. Croatia and Serbia are pretty good 2nd and 3rd teams and you'd think Scotland and Wales with their names would be capable of upsets but Belgium made it through undefeated. That's impressive, especially doing the once impossible of winning in Croatia.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 17, 2014 -> 09:28 AM) All things considered, he's the most irreplaceable guy this squad has. I don't think so. Mainly because he's not good. Dempsey and especially, especially Bradley are by far the two most irreplaceable guys on the roster and that's because they are the two closest in quality to being top notch players that we have (save for Howard, but at least we have Guzan backing him up). No one else is close. I can see the argument since now with Jozy out it'll require a change up in tactics due to a poor roster make-up. Eddie Johnson, Sounders version, and Terrence Boyd are closest in style but neither are there of course. But that's fine, there's no loss in talent in here.

Don't know how you guys didn't love that

Yessssss this is awesome

Rusev vs Reigns showndown was fun. Crowd was very hot.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jun 16, 2014 -> 08:59 PM) Aron Jóhannsson has done pretty well this year in club. He actually replaced Altidore at AZ Alkmaar. Yeah love him. On paper might even be a better option than Jozy but today he was not good at all.

I enjoy Sandow so much every. Not going to lie.

Well I spoke to soon

Heath Slater face turn so good. Raw has been great.

Grant Park was awesome by the way. Crowd was great.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 16, 2014 -> 07:33 PM) Didn't take long for the crappy Donovan reference. He's right. Attacking from the kids was absolutely atrocious today. Someone like Landon would have been perfect. But we got lucky, got the win. Let's hope we play better the next two.

Don't think Altidore is the biggest loss.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 16, 2014 -> 12:24 PM) https://twitter.com/TeyePrince/status/478588589845250048 Official. #GHA XI vs #USA: Kwarasey, Opare Kwadwo Asamoah, Jonathan Mensah, Boye, Rabiu, Atsu, Muntari, Jordan Ayew, Gyan and Andre Ayew. Okay so Essien and Boateng out. Still half of the Ghanese (?) Players I've heard of are out for some reason. QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 16, 2014 -> 02:12 PM) Nigeria-Iran. You either have to be very, very, very into soccer or very, very, very bored at work to watch this one. Bored at work. But yeah.

Don't see Essien and Muntari for Ghana according to their lineup making the rounds on Twitter. Basically their 2 marquee players. T I would think that's a big surprise but don't know enough about what lineups they've been using.

This is a bloodbath. 3 to 0 and it's not even that close. Remind me of France 2010. Doesn't look like they are trying in the least bit

Yes! Red card for Pepe! This game could not be going any better.

Well it's 2 0 now. Might as well root for the 5-0 route at this point.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 16, 2014 -> 11:18 AM) I like Germany more than Portugal, but a draw is the best outcome for the US. I'm on the fence. Portugal winning would be the worst thing. A tie means only 2 points given out of a possible 3. But I'm cool for playing for second which means Portugal losing is best. I think they are probably closer to US and Ghana than to Germany (which says how good Germany is more than anything)

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 16, 2014 -> 10:56 AM) Anyone going to Grant Park to watch the game tonight? I'll be there

I'll take Bosh in a heartbeat if Melo and Love fail us.
