behave - I have outed you as a NASCAR fan. XM radio commentary notes that the Italians were cheering our National Anthem!

Even the biggest soccer hater out there, cannot possibly not be fired up by hearing that national anthem and hearing our supporters in the stands singing.

don-o, good to see you here. Hey my friend I just retired as a soccer coach for 45 years. I have Ben Olsen on this team.
BTW, I hope I can stay sober for this game. Nervous wreck.

Know nothing Dave O'Brien strikes before the game even starts:
"Italy came back from a slow start in the '82 World Cup to beat the host West Germany."
Apparently Germany found a way to host an event held in Spain.
Nice goin' Dave. Keep it up...
To: dfwgator
US playing better, much more aggressive, need to waych the fouls, but they are keeping the ball possession better.
GO USA!

Very promising start.
Now, you need to put something on the board.

The US are doing well so far, although Italy seem content to sit back and play on the break. Good game.
To: MoJo2001
Our boys are playing much better in this match, so far.
GO USA!!
To: Eurotwit
Haven't seen much out of the US midfield thus far. That could hurt later.

Free kick in a very dangerous position.
The US are impressing so far.
