Was in a Mexican restaurant with some friends, and naturally everyone is rooting for Mexico. One of my friends is telling us how he wants Netherlands to win doe, but he isn't saying it out loud. Netherlands scores the first goal and he screams, while everyone else is dead silent. Most awkward **** ever.

Try being a Giants fan in Dodgers stadium. I "accidently" stood up and clapped after a Giants HR once. It was one of those spontaneous moments when you jump up, realize what you you did and then try to make yourself as small as possible afterwards. This was WAY before the Stow incident, but I made sure to exit out a portal far away from where any fans would have seen me. And I absolutely would NOT wear Giants gear to a Dodgers game or Jazz gear to a Lakers game.
 
Anyone watching the game? What is the impression? Gamecast basically shows an even posession game with Belgium taking a lot more outside the box shots with the USA making more tackles. Does one team have the momentum or upperhand?
 
belgium clearly controlled the 1st half. we dodged a bullet early. but we also did have a decent opportunity. we just aren't good at keeping the ball. i don't even have to be a soccer expert to know this.

That is interesting since the US has had the ball more. Thanks for the take on it.

we just can't seem to keep the ball. no long passes. no intermediate passes. and definitely no passes in space. but we have a sick goalie.
 
was that wonderlowski who missed the gimme layup? damn, could've been one of the most satisfying goal ever.
 
Of course Belgium is good.. this redhead and Origi are obviously better than any of the US players. (no?) Their goalie is top notch also.
