It would help if the US team would move a little bit and try to score a goal. Showing up to the game and standing on the field didn't appear to be a winning strategy today.

Gads that was painful to watch!

Why'd they keep passing to the Czechs? Someone trying to meet their spread?

You mean its helps if the team moves off the ball? I would never have known watching today's game!

About the best thing we did was execute the offside trap -- at least until the 75th minute. That's not what you'd hope your best aspect of the game would be.

Having watched virtually all of the games so far, either the Czechs are by far the best team in the Tournament or we are by far the worst -- or both. Bad game.

We looked like a team with players that mostly come from second-tier teams instead of a team with lots of players that play in the Champions League. How could we be so outclassed when our players come from Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea, Arsenal, Man U, Bayern Munich, Juventus, AC Milan, and Liverpool?
