our passing sucks a lot. Does Besler do anything with the ball out of the back other than play long ball that goes right back to Belgium. ugh.

Jones, you gotta take a touch and shot there. No need to try fancy dink to Dempsey. ugh.

welp, Bradley's decision making on his passes already driving me nuts. C'mon man. Make the simple decisions.

too bad Nigeria didn't end the game with that level of intensity

please don't confuse race with nationality

actually I think it's slowly, slowly being phased back in.

yeah, wrote too soon

Do they have makeup calls in soccer? that was iffy PK call.

wow. Golazo by Sneijder. Nothing poor Ochoa could do about that one. Anybody else get the feeling it was just a matter of time for the Dutch in that last 7-8 minutes? Don't know how Mexico are going to handle the extra time. They look gassed.

Don't like this decision to take Dos Santos off. You may need another scoring chance in the last 30 minutes.

Ochoa having the tournament of his life

I think they decided to go against collection of individuals and try the chemistry route. looks like it worked.

wow, what a goal for Dos Santos.

obscure story, only thing I can compare it to were the baseball stadiums that had the old astro turf. went to a game in St Louis in the 80s on an August afternoon when the temp on field was about 120. Had seats behind the dugout in the sun. Spent that game in upper deck, center field in shade. I don't think anyone…

This ref has been iffy from start for both sides. wow.

when the Heat sign Napier to a rookie contract can ESPN also have a panel discussion about that, as well?

you complete me

idk if they're holding it, but they are temporary placards held up on stands, like a music easel
