Even if the ball is going out, that gets called. <BR/>Cooper: for the love of all that is good, keep picking him. <BR/>Adu can score free kicks at this level too. Good to know.<BR/>Whither Jozy? The Haitian Sensation was decent, but not game changing tonight. <BR/>Guatemala can thank their keeper for keeping the scoreline closer than they deserved.<BR/>If Guzan can get playing time in England, I'd take him over Howard. Just a feeling.<BR/>Dammit Canada. Why couldn't you have scored one more last month?Jacobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02009896468343968678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-14152716375001840742008-11-19T22:34:00.000-05:002008-11-19T22:34:00.000-05:00I think I lost my last comment, but basically I ag...I think I lost my last comment, but basically I agree with you.

I prefer they not make it.<BR/><BR/>The next round isn't going to be a cakewalk. But we definitely need to win the group. Think about the easy ass group that Mexico drew into (Angola, Iran) by being the seeded team for CONCACAF in the last WC (and how the fuck that happened when we had beaten them about 5 straight and were ranked ahead of them I have no idea). Anyway, we ended up with Italy, Ghana, and the Czechs. We would have been a lock for the seed if El Tri weren't even around.Precious Royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13254500384702034482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-55503033777340670292008-11-19T22:07:00.000-05:002008-11-19T22:07:00.000-05:00As a USMNT fan, I'd prefer never to see Mexico aga...As a USMNT fan, I'd prefer never to see Mexico again, but given that I have both Mexican and Honduran friends, I don't mind this too much.
