I have faith in us but otherwise I think Germany's got this honestly (besides obvious brazil playing home)

if Colombia beats us it'd be nice to see them win too, but dem germans

that said the WC is rarely not a toss up so we'll see
 
I want Suarez to play. We haven't had strong opposition at this level, and the qualifiers we had a strong win 5-0 but then a terrible loss at Montevideo. This will be the deciding match

I think we have the means and the manpower to defeat Uruguay but we don't have the balls in the field. Those Uruguayans can be dirty playing football but man they do have big balls.

I want any team to take it except for Argentina. If they take this I swear to god I will cancel cable TV . niembro & company would be fucking annoying

That. Would. Be. Amazing. Beers, burgers and bratwurst on the grill, fireworks, crying eagles, and a US quarter final match on Independence Day? Patriotism overload. I hope this happens. Germany is the best team, but if this world cup has taught us anything, it's fuck your expectations, anybody can beat anybody.
Germany is going to destroy us, aren't they :(
 
USA in 11 hours. Eagles will be crying, freedom shots will be slung. Pong will be played, Beer getrunken. Mailmen will deliver mail lazily, someone will think about going postal. Flags will be strewn about unfettered. God will turn his face away from the heavens and pay attention to those men in Brazil about to play this wonderful match. Jesus will think about descending and kissing Klinnsman's beautifully Californian tanned head. Bags of chips will be snapped open with loud crunches.

The world will rejoice at the splendors and glory of America, land of chicken and waffles; of Medicare scooters; of both kinds of apple; of trucks bigger than planes; of ESPN; of Disney; of the fact that ESPN and Disney are the same company; of tight pants even if you shouldn't wear them; of Justin Timberlake and Kanye West; of shitty pop stars that are actually awesome; of not birthing Nickelback; of the more than numerous amount of colleges and universities; of the notion that everyone should go to university, some people should go twice; of 'fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again'; of Clint Eastwood telling you to get off his lawn; of Butch Cassidy; of Ingmar Bergman; of getting our facts wrong and not caring; of presidents faces carved into giant slabs of rock; of the prospect of suing one's own president for doing things expected of him; of the conquering manifest destiny; of both loving marajuana and trying to lock up everyone that uses it; of cajun food and innocuous beads; of being jealous of your neighbor; of having the ability to shoot anyone that comes on your property; of blue skies and white clouds; of all sorts of clans; of Martin Luther King; of eskimos and old-folks homes; of corn fed mid westerners; of death panels; of death penalties; of lebron and tiger and Kershaw; of curling superstar John Shuster; of Michael Phelps the swimmer endorsed by McDonalds and all things weed related; of barackackackacka Obama the great; of political stalemates; of pride parades; but most importantly at the god fearing, state-and-church separating, blood infused organ donating, yes, the festering, boisterous, generous, selfish, racist, politically correct, and brimstone-and-fiery passion of the greatest population in the universe, the citizens of the united states of America.

Damn it, why did they make the best matches be the first ones, they should have been at 4. Still, can't wait! Hopefully we get great football.

I never said head to head should take precedence over goal differential. I said it should take precedence over goals scored.

Ohhh my bad. That's an interesting idea. I think the system works perfectly now though in terms of encouraging exciting games (the need for more goals). I don't think head-to-head is necessarily more fair considering the small sample size of one game.
 
I'll be cheering for you guys tomorrow. Germany is in anyways so they can take a loss. And yes a quarterfinal for you on Friday 4th of July would be a thing if beauty.
 
Are these generic thread titles an effort to avoid spoiling the games for people or is it just laziness? ie, can I add this thread back to my subscriptions?

No. They're just as an indicator of what games are coming up.

The title will be updated with spoilerific witticisms at the end of the matches, most likely.

I could think of a lot of words to describe Wes's efforts this World Cup but 'laziness' is not one of them...
 
I wanted Germany to win but thanks to USA we are playing this world cup. So yeah, good luck today and hope you make it to next round!
 
Can't wait till tomorrow, to watch the US-Germany game, at work, by periodically checking the score, on google...

:(

The matches in the thread title ended hours ago, though! Same situation yesterday. Unless the spoilerific witticisms went up and then were replaced by a schedule of games that had already passed.

Anyway, got my hopes up.

That's not quite true, there is a remote chance (however unlikely) that Germany might not make it if the USA gives them a trashing (lol) and either Portugal or Ghana wins their clash by also trashing the other team.

Consider the following (highly unlikely) hypothetical scenarios:-

Scenario 1

Germany loses to the USA 4-0, wiping out their GD advantage. 4 points still, but GD is now 0.

Portugal then beats Ghana with a 5-0 scoreline, their GD then becomes +1. 4 points, but they get through with the second spot.

Germany is out. Portugal and USA are through.

Scenario 2

Same as Scenario 1 with Germany's loss to the US, but this time Ghana beats Portugal with a 2-0 thumping. Ghana's GD is now 1, and they have 4 points.

Germany is out. Ghana and USA are through.

Conclusion

Germany can only afford to lose by only 1 or 2 goals, that GD is vital to ensuring that survival to the next round in the event of a loss and an outright thumping by either Portugal or Ghana in the other match.

time zones, so mod that's changing the titles is probably sleeping. expect spoilers.
 
Welp. I don't know how I feel about this game against Germany, but this team has surpassed my expectations. I hope we can make it out of the group tomorrow and that the last 30 seconds against Portugal didn't kill us (freaking Bradley). I like the amount of scenarios that end up with us going through, though it's very possible that we might not. I'd just like us to get the result ourselves and not have to hope Portugal or a draw pulls through for us. Who knows, maybe we can get our first clean sheet of the tournament tomorrow! (Yes, I know I'm in fantasy land here)

I really do think the first half will tell the tale though. Don't see much happening in the last 30 minutes if it's tied.
