LOL of course it is. Athlete risk their long term health all the time, for things a lot more routine than the Word Cup. Do you have any idea how many athletes risked their health for the World Cup and then didn't even make the team? Just a chance to play in the World Cup is what most of these people have been…

considering all the pressure Brazil's under to win and the national psychodrama that follows the team, I wouldn't be surprised if it happens. They'd build a statue of him next to that Christ the Redeemer statue if he somehow comes back and leads Brazil to victory

He plays for a nation whose national religion is soccer. It's not insanity, it's church.

The last minute goalkeeper sub seemed like it worked. I mean, he did stop 2 PKs.

Really? Why? I thought it was cool as hell to see the mind games between him and the penalty takers, get in their heads, mess with their flow.

I assume he is being treating in various super model vaginas but I need to verify my sources.

What was the joke? That Landon didn't make the team?

Did we watch the same game? The treatment of both teams were the same by the referee. Stop trying to see bias when there isn't any. The referee just wasn't great.

What? After we have been basically beat down by every opponent, specially Chile who just hammered Neymar. The team tonight basically kinda had it, when Columbia started hitting them, they hit back. If you watch some Copa Libertadores matches all these Latin teams when they play agaisnt a Brazilian team, they bring the…

I also post spongebob pictures with huge words when I have no legitimate argument.

I do.

If U.S. were to win on something like that we'd feel no pride in it in my opinion.

I've been arguing for gumline technology forever.

I'm reading a lot of articles asking whether or not the US will play for a tie. To me the real question is this: Will they play defensively enough to not lose by several goals?

Portugal is the favourite in their matchup with Ghana but they have a 4 goal deficit to overcome even if they win and the US loses by one goal.…

The entire city of Cleveland sounds like an abused girlfriend.

I mean, he's LeBron's agent. Of course he's going to be rich.
