Canada 2007

You've been harping on Dax for quite some time now. Hopefully he will have a break through string of performances in the U20 WC.

My pick will be Bradley to boss the midfield and further establish himself as a US International.

 

I predict Altidore to shine in the Cup and sign in Europe after the end of this MLS season when he turns 18. I get excited at the prospect of the 2010 squad in South Africa and Altidore, with a Euro season or two under his belt, starting in the front line for the U.S. To contrast, is Adu a victim of his own hype, or does he simply need more time to develop? Thoughts?

From what I've digested about the squads thus far, Korea will put up a challenge tomorrow. I'm stoked to see this Dax fellow feature too, want to see what has HD all hyped up. Dax gets him more excited than Three Dog Night, this guy's got to be good.
USA!
America, f$*k yeah!

 

Looking forward to seeing if Seitz gets any action and our other local guy, Freddy 'Meh'du.

 

I love the match vs. Brazil on July 6. Final group match, could determine who advances between the clubs...I can't wait!

 

Nevzter your "America F$*k Yeah!" comment gave me a good laugh. Reminds me of the Team America: World Police flick. Anyone else seen it?

Many times, one of my favorites. You gotta love the computer voiced by Phil Hendrie too. Classic.

Hijack.
The Phil Hendrie Show....brilliant!

 

Un-hijack.

Chang's comments on the U-20 field...U.S. doesn't even crack his top 5, probably rightfully so, however, they 'ain't no doorknob either!'

If you're just dying to see the games you could always check out a site like rojadirecta.org, assuming it is legal haha.

 

I'll be going to ESPNZONE in Baltimore today to watch the game on ESPNU (which isn't offered by COMCAST).

We have a whole thread dedicated to that peice of mangled junk. I really can't emphasize enough just how terrible that movie was, brutal absoulutley brutal. Only The Leprechaun2 comes to mind as being obviously worse.

Haha...Well Spencer you either love it or you hate it. Wasn't a bad flick and I thought it was a good laugh.

Back on topic...Thanks for the post of Bobby's blog Don. He is the best analyst on FSC and his opinions seem to be spot on most of the time.

 

RE: Re: RE: Canada 2007

Good afternoon of soccer for me today. Poland v Brazil followed by the US v South Korea. All in the same group of the Under-20 World Cup. Reading Bobby's blog, I fear Poland may get hammered today, but I am remaining hopeful.

 

RE: Re: RE: Canada 2007

I can't believe Danny Szetela is still young enough for this. I could swear he's been in MLS for like six years.

Altidore is good but let's not anoint him the next Ronaldo (the good one with the weird hairstyles, not the diver) just yet.

 

RE: Re: RE: Canada 2007

Tom and anyone else who is able to watch the matches today, post your thoughts as I don't have ESPNU. Hope the US has a quality performance against S. Korea. There is a fair bit of talent on the US side. Lets see how they do against the world's best and brightest.

For your sake Tom...hopefully they can hang in there with the Samba Warriors.

 

RE: Re: RE: Canada 2007

I will post later in the day what I see. I actually have some things to do this afternoon and I will be recording the matches to watch later.

 

HatterDon. Will do.

I found the Brazil-Poland game on one of the Spanish channels that I get. (but it won't have the US game)

1-0 Poland at the half!

Poland looks well organized. Brazil has amazing talent on and with the ball, but, as is usual with Brazilian national teams, their organization is not great. Game is still up in the air, as Brazil is owning possession and Poland is playing long ball, but a good start for the Poles, nonetheless.
