Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help: To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

No gunshot wounds on Pvt. Lynch, That is good to know

[Dawgmeister]

I don't know about you, but Bryan4 seems a little snippy.

And they won!

As someone said in that thread, when you get killed if you lose, the incentive is motivating!

[eyespysomething]

We forced them to play at gun point!

[ChewedGum]

Awesome article! (But I love Soccer above all sports) I'm kinda glad the Iraqis won. And it is hillarious that they all love Beckham.

Y'all will be alright. Read what ya wanna read and enjoy the fellowship of the like-minded.

I bet it is more than 9,000 now. I heard 9,000 when I was this morning on FN while I was getting ready for work.

Same url you are using. I have to keep on clicking on the open button. After about twenty times to 50 times it will open up.

Now Sky guy from Baghdad is tyring to say that RG could not defend the Airport so they have moved to an other location.

He just doesn't get it. A lot of them have been wiped out!

Soccer in Umm Khayall... That's the best news of the day. Is this count as an international friendly match for the Iraqis.

At least the Iraqi soccer team does not have to worry about being flogged by Uda for losing a match anymore.

[Carolina]

He just doesn't get it. A lot of them have been wiped out!

Chattering Chater is veering close to Arnett Syndrome, I say.

[TonyInOhio]

Further from NPR reporter in Baghdad - she said traffic on the streets has become very light. Apparently, civilians with cars are getting the hell out of Dodge.

This is a shocker - embedded NPR reporter with the Marines confirms crowds of cheering, waving Iraqi civilians.

[aloysius89]

I read about udays idea of inciting his olympians. Imagine the joy of the Iraqis at the chance for a truly friendly game.

[Green]

Well I wonder if they press will quit wriging their hands over why we aren't being greeted with cheers from the Iraqis. (well, I can hope anyway)

[Catspaw]

This is a shocker - embedded NPR reporter with the Marines confirms crowds of cheering, waving Iraqi civilians.

The NPR reporter said this? I think I'm going to swoon.

[hawkaw]

OMG!!!!! How the hell can the British people put up with idiots like this Sky guy reporting from Baghdad. He doesn't have clue one what's going on but keeps on harping about RG soldiers in the city ready to take on the Americans.

This is disgusting reporting.

[Cboldt]

RG could not defend the Airport so they have moved to an other location.

That's one way to put it.

[CasearianDaoist]

Are you sure that's an em,bedded NPR reporter? also do you know what task force he/she is with (3rd ID or 1st MEF).
