The Official 2010 FIFA World Cup Thread

I know many people here aren't soccer fans. I honestly don't really follow it on a regular basis either.

But this is a major sports event for the next month so....discuss here

I have a couple of friends who are HUGE soccer fans and they are absolutely pumped for this, they've been talking about it for weeks. I could really care less myself.

I'm a world cup fan...go USA/Ivory Coast/Holland. Nothing would be more pleasing if we beat England.

Re: The Official 2010 FIFA World Cup Thread

I've got the South Africa/Mexico game up on the Tres...South Africa's keeper has had a few good saves. Mexico's bending the South Africa defense, but they aren't breaking.

I'm rooting for USA and France.

Besides South Africa the US sold the most tickets to the world cup so there is a nice fan base there. We care more about other sports be we don't hate soccer.

Re: The Official 2010 FIFA World Cup Thread

I graduated from high school with Oguchi Onyewu so I always have to pull for the man! He was this tall skinny kid in high school but now he is a freaking beast. Glad to hear he's healthy now he just needs to kick the crap out of the Brits.
