The World Cup and Powerline
So, Paul Mirengoff at Powerline, compares the US team to Australia, and tells us the Socceroos are "a team of comparable talent and less international experience". All I can say is, it would be nice if Paul knew something, anything, about European professional football. If he did, he might be able to tell us how a team that consists of 11 guys who get regular first-team playing at first division European clubs is comparable talent-wise to a team that has maybe 5 guys with regular first-team playing time at first division European clubs. And also, dukeing it out with Costa Rica on a regular basis is not actually the same thing as beating England away.
But then again, if Paul Mirengoff knew what the fuck he was talking about, he wouldn't be writing for Powerline.
I really wish soccer would get bigger in the US, and fucking retards like Mirengoff aren't actually helping matters.

Whereas you, to absolutely no-one's surprise, could talk your way through a circlejerk.
By the way, is that one word or two? Circle jerk, circlejerk...I'm sure a noted circle jerk afficionado such as yourself will be to, um, fill us in, as it were.
i'll fill ya in
...with wit!
My prediliction: Italy reminds us how good they are at taking orders from Berlin and gets mein kampfed, 2-1.
Also, Portugal played like a bunch of pussies the other day and England should be humiliated. That said, no way they can win again-you can't score when you're busy diving and they lose 3-0.
It's Germany-France final, and, unlike real life, France wins and immediately afterwards Zidane and Beckham become teammates again, but on the Los Angeles Fairgodmothers, or whatever the LA MLS team is.
nice one, zizou. c u n nyc
Gee, what a rousing success the USA Soccer plan of not having US players play in Yurp was.
Australia kicked some ass, though.
