No more going to the restroom for you. ;-)
Can you say "Hold it"?
LOL!
Dave O'Brien Sucks!
Okay! Got that out of the way!
NEXT!
What was that latest foul of ours? (around midfield) High kick?
Definitely. I didn't figure anyone would score so soon. Now I know better...
HAHAHAHAHAHAH! Oh that is a good one.
I fear a repeat of the 2002 Germany game, where we dominate but can't finish.
Someone should tackle Nedved's legs. They're made of glass.
The Czechs have spent a lot of time rolling around the ground today, huh?
I have no idea how reliable my grapevine is mind :o)
Looks like some of the tactics are going out the window already......desperate balls into the box for a cheap one a la MLS....sorry boys this is the World Cup. 1-0 down only 20 min in is hardly insurmountable, especially if the Czechs sit back.
Let's just let Jan Koller stand in the box again boys!!
UUUUUUUGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!
Think positive!
I'm surprised the Czechs are just sitting back, rather than pressing for another goal. This is a group that could be decided on goal differential, so the more the better.
soooooo close
UUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!
DANG!
Okay! I'm over it already! Next! We can do this!
I'm a bleedin' prophet.
