Alas, if Bubba Hicks hadn't doinked one off the uprights late in the 4th quarter in 1975, we'd have a similar story.

It least it's not a possum or a skunk!


The first time I saw an opossum, I thought it as a rat. My buddy Owens said " that's a possum city boy"

" Considering how much we loathe soccer"

Ever watch a full game?

Yes, I am a big World Cup fan. My wife and I follow Germany, as I love their style of play and my wife is of German descent. I put it on the same level as the Olympics. Love seeing the different styles. This World Cup I am loving Japan they are fun to watch.

As for USA, of course I root for them. But, realistically they have little shot at getting out of the round of 32.

Like hell. USA will be playing a 3rd place team in the round of 32. Perhaps you mean in the rounds of 16 or 8?

The way it is playing out, you are right. It would be a disappointment if USA lost in Round of 32 with the current teams that we may play.

I think we have a 20% chance maybe to make the Elite Eight, which would be amazing.

The likely result is making Round of 16, which would be successful.


Stars aligning for run to 8.

Bosnia in Round of 32 should be win, they are best case.

Belgium in Round of 16 looks like worst case scenario. That gets us to the Round of 8. From there, lucky bounce??

Remember: 10am central is 4pm European time, so it's happy hour and they are already 5-6 sheets to the wind.

a lot more convenient than Thailand and I don't get Mercan TV. However the good ole Irish Pub a few doors down shows every match regardless of time. I'm generally with a German, French guy,, Canadian, Italian lady who is half Argentine. Kinda fun with all the expats from everywhere eating it all up. US really putting their best foot forward. The largest expat population is Japanese . Man, they are great. Blew me away they cleaned up Jerryworld after their match. Has been interesting learning about different cultures here. Japanese, Korean are the biggest expat population followed by Westerners .
