ya the US team is strong there is no doubt about it, but i dooubt they will make it far... aka to the finals since well ... to be honest i dunno why. i dont think they have such a solid team... shure they are good but under pressure i think they will fail. but yes they are good.

and i would say argentina or brazil are the strong fav? maybe holland as well

fastmp3 i beg you to lock this stupid thread.

nachos shut up the fav are brazil not Holland and Argentina

The world cup is so much better than that other thing you said I wont even name it these 2 events shouldnt be in the same sentence........

Im glad you think the US team is good which they are but they wont beat Italy or the Czechs but whoknows they can look to Greece for some determination. I hate the US "soccer" team and always will. Sorry but fuck them

Originally posted by elektrikal I will use the word football but for Americans I mean soccer. US beat a weak Norway team the other day 5-0 in a friendly with some of the better US players playing for European clubs. I have not been keeping up with football lately but for World Cup, is England the current favorite or is Brazil the default favorite? Whoever it is I can't wait for it to start. I was in Germany over the winter and saw slight signs around the country of the World Cup preparations and was sad I will not be there for the tournament. I honestly think the World Cup blows the crappy Super Bowl out of the water. I realize being an American I am a minority in this regards but when talking world champions, Superbowl is still an American affair though other countries may watch, but World Cup is the most awesome sporting spectacle, or a close second to the Summer Olympics (Winter Olympics are weak haha).

Norway was not a good opponent. Mexico beat them with their bench too, 2-1. Close match and physical. Let's be honest, boring as hell as well.

Anyway, I saw part of the US vs Norway match. I still don't like their style. So I switched the channel. My guess is Norway wasn't that motivated during these friendly matches. Norway is not preparing for the WC and no real effort is put in.

I really don't know how they, US of A, will perform in the WC. They are in a difficult group. As I've said before, my guess is Czech Republic and Italy will go on to the second round and the US won't.

And the World Cup is not second to the Summer Olympics or anything else. No offense to the other events and sports but football is the most beautiful of sports and the WC will remain the number one event forever, even when men play against robots. Period.

i don't know why we haven't learned from past WCs, none of the favorites make it past quarterfinals and Brazil always wins. end of conversation.

US might scrape through to the 2nd round. People give Italy and Czechs too much credit - football is very well rounded these days, Italy is a good bet to fuck something up with their squad collection and the Czechs are getting old themselves.

Zimbabwe is better than USA

alot of good points here in this thread, personally im tired of defending the USA national team, alot of you know how I feel already.Dont mind Ben, he hates the U.S national team as much as I hate Argentinas.
gay Juve,Chelsea Loving fantasy sports homie Aristronica is right , the Czech Rep. may not be the same team we saw in the Euros, 2nd place will between them and USA in that group.

Although everyone thinks they are crap and wont do anything, they will go under the radar. I mean, its a 50-50 chance..but they can do it.
