The ref finally figured out why his kid is so skinny and black.

Man, I stopped paying attention to the game when it was 3-0, and started playing Winning Eleven, and the next time I looked up, it was 5-0, and then we scored our sixth.

Good work, boys. 6-0. That's an ass whoopin'.

I think four goals in 60 minutes of play puts EJ ahead of the Chinger right now. Donovan plays attacking mid. The question is if the US were playing a meaningful match tomorrow would EJ get the start over Wolff or McBride.

That's criminal.

You missed the EJ hat-trick!

Brian, seriously, if you had said "FIFA" instead of "Winning Eleven" I would hate you... but Winning Eleven is awesome, so we're cool.

I was engrossed in trying to beat Cameroon and Italy in my international league. I lost both games, though.

Cameroon are tough, they're fast as hell. I've lost to them a couple of times.

I've lost a ton of the games 1-0, with the winner coming after 80 minutes. I lost to Brazil 1-0, on an own goal in stoppage time.

What a win , this is the way that we should beat all of these scrubs in central america, no offense and I'm not trying to be ignorant but national team football in central america is equivalent to Moldova, Armenia, Azerbajhan, Malta, Faroe Islands etc...in Europe (not Liechtentein they are *stars* ).

Time for the debate....

Hey, great game by the US, even though i felt that the score line should had been alot wider.


Oh, and who was that Borgetti wannabe....hahaha.....Borgetti has over 8 goals in the qualifiers just like the ones Johnson made.:funny:
Now seriously, they should start him more.

Costa Rica and Mexico (and maybe a couple of other countries) aside, this is the kind of result we should get against teams in our region, especially at home.

Wow... that's at the five-star difficulty level, right?

I've won the "International Cup" a couple of times. Lost in the quarters and semis a bunch of times.

Mostly I play friendlies vs. teams like Iran and China so I can score 4 or 5 goals.

Nah, actually it's at 3/5 stars.

My defense is pretty good, giving up roughly a goal per game, I just can't score for shit.

you should really try 5 stars Brian.... its not even that much harder. And you really have to play good soccer to score, it fells better

I think the following teams are for sure better than the likes of Moldova, Armenia, etc.

USA
Mexico
Costa Rica
Honduras
Guatemala
Jamaica
Canada
Trinidad & Tobago

After that, that seems about right. Haiti and Panama are improving though, and Cuba aren't too far off. Then you have El Salvador who are getting worse and worse.

I remember the first time I played 5-star on WE6 I couldn't get the ball past my own half. I've mastered it now though.

Costa Rica why just because they qualified for the last WC? I agree with Mexico they are a very good side but it starts and ends there with Central America.

PS: Here's Costa Rica in their current group

1) Guatemala 7pts
2) Honduras 6pts
3) Costa Rica 6pts
4) Canada 2pts

If they are considered as dangerious competition for the US than that's just sad...

They just drubbed Guatemala 5-0 though. Never count out Costa Rica.

 

[manutd4eva]

United States 9pts
Jamaica 6pts
Panama 5pts
El Salvador 4pts

Next matches:

United States vs Jamaica
El Salvador vs Panama

The US has nothing to play for but pride. I think Onyewu, Gaven and Johnson will start vs. Jamaica.

How did you guys not beat El Salvador at home?

 

[bjmenge]

I'd like to see Buddle and Martino play against Jamaica, too. I think Martino could play Landon's AM role.
