The soccer boards? You act like I frequent this forum. In fact, dude, I've rarely come to NikeTalk anymore. Prove myself? I don't have to justify anything to you. And like I care if my mod status means anything.

JR5

Lol at that insulting you. You are not a true "football" fan if you only want to support the US when they do something good. You're just a gloryhunter, please don't call yourself a US fan.
*Waits for childish response*


I can't believe the amount of hate in here. If before the tournament someone would have told you the US will advance in their group, knock out Spain, makethe final, and make Brazil earn their game winning goal with 10 minutes left none of you guys would have believed it and US fans would have taken it. Sadly wecould have done better with the situation we were in but I'm proud of this team. The US is making progress in the soccer world and this was a big step inthe right direction and I still don't understand how you guys can hate on this US performance overall in the tournament.

Also for all the haters out there, where the hell was your team in this competition? Couldn't qualify? smh

we get it, you follow world football (join the club)..so therefore you're knowledge of the game is infinite and profound

whats even worse is americans who come from this angle

To me, they were simply outclassed by Brazil. After conceeding the second goal, Brazil were coming up with wave-after-wave of attacks... those expecting the US defense to be able to withstand that sort of attack for 45+ minutes is underestimating the offense of Brazil IMO...

That is what I was trying to say and I was laughed at and called a bandwagon fan so I don't know. I would agree with you. Everyone knows how fast Brazil can score. Look what they did and how quickly they dismantled Italy. But hey I am just the clueless USA fan I guess.

The thing is, we did the same strategy with Spain. We got a lead and decided we would curl up in a ball and hope for the best... we got lucky tohold Spain off in that sense, but I didn't think for a second we'd be able to last 65 minutes in prevent defense against another world class attack.

I can't really say we were outplayed today anymore than we were against Spain... we went with a losing strategy and it worked once and failed once.

No. YOU ****....w/ your combinations of smugness, ignorance and cynical nonsense. Saying thatMikey Bradley is only on the active squad b/c of Bob is laughable. You talk about that, then proceed to say some people "don't have a damn cluefootball," just adds more of a reason to keep laughing at your @%@%% *$+.

Yeah, we are not in the position to dominate these big teams so that's what we must resort to sadly. Our day will come though

I agree...unfortunate but true. Our asinine substitution strategy didn't help things at all either....

We can't win 2-0 to Spain and then get up 2-0 on Brazil on a fluke only. I mean come on. They played much better than us in the second half and beat us. Simple.

YOU HONESTLY DON'T THINK THEY CHOKED??????? I GIVE UP FOLKS! SOMEONE QUE THE JERRY SEINFELD GIF!!!!

Now this babam11218719 kid is the one being rediculous. Another bandwagoner US fan who just joined the soccer scene.

What a joke this guy is. Has been, and will continue to be.

It's rather frustrating, too... given that we DID actually start looking more organized on offense the last two games early on in the games.. to the pointwhere it seemed we could've stayed somewhat aggressive (or at least not 100 percent defensive) and still won both games.

Oh well... hopefully we keep improving this summer.

w/ your combinations of smugness, ignorance and cynical nonsense.

gotta agree... I'm still not sure how he's kept hismoderating powers here given all the times I've seen him breaking the rules as a one.

how can you be a bandwagon fan when the team represents your country??

 

[craftsy21]

because you can just show up when they start winning, knowing very little about the team?

The same way with any bandwagonness that takes place... it's people who don't show up til the team is good. Doesn't matter if you geographicallyhave a tie to a team if you don't actually follow and support them.

If the US Softball team wins, I'm not going to pretend I'm a fan of theirs... i hope they win, but I won't say I really care either way... get it?
