It's good to see that we made it to the final and I hope we beat Mexico. As for how we got here, my heart goes out to Canada on their disallowed goal. I really feel that was a questionable call. I don't think anyone can argue that if we were in Canada's shoes we would feel the same as they do. Those who argue are only fooling themselves. Look back to the 2002 World Cup when we lost 1-0 to Germany on that overlooked handball call where we should have been allowed a penalty kick to tie it. My point is, that's how Canadian's feel now. Don't take things for granted-appreciate what we have!

So you are a Canadian fan as well now then ?

I am sure true US fans are glad they got there, never mind who had a goal disallowed, that don't matter at all.

By the way...we (US) won it yesterday beating Mexico 2-1. Brilliant match and glad to see us hold onto our title.

I thought that was fantastic goal by Benny Feilhaber. I look forward to when they play Argentina later this week.

btw, Scrump, I like Canada so what? I never forget where I was born(here in Pa.) and I'm a proud American.
I'm sensitive about things and I can put myself it other's positions, unlike most. Is that a crime? Last I checked, no.
One thing I want to add about yesterday's final, I thought the Mexican coach was classless in saying that 'the better team does not always win'. But I guess that is typical of them. At least one of their midfielders gave us credit in saying that we deserved to win.

I loved the Goal Andres Guardado Scored on USA the best Goal of the Match.....

Typical of whom ?

Did you stop watching before the Feilhaber goal?

Spoken like a true Mexican fan :rolleyes:

And, Scrump, it's typical of a Mexican coach to say something like that.

Why the eyeroll? What is wrong with Leo being a Mexican fan? If it had been Ireland vs USA and you made a comment that the goal that Ireland made was the best one, you wouldn't like it if someone did an eyeroll at you, now would you?

You are so hypocritical that its not even funny

Really ? Then there are an awful lot of Mexican coaches in the world as I have heard many a coach say they felt their team was better but lost.

Either that or you are again guilty of another stupid statement.

Ding Ding we have a winner

Though "stupid" wasn't the first word that came to mind

I was giving him whatever little benefit of the doubt he deserved Suz.

Wow. You and I finally disagree on Chuckles. I personally don't think he deserves any benefit of the doubt, based on similar remarks he has made in the past

Nooooo, if we start disagreeing on things, people will think we are REALLY Married !!!

Sad to see Argentina rally from a goal down to win 4-1 yesterday. The small section I saw the US looked good.

Not married. Just part of the Memsahib-approved Scrumpy Harem

My dear you are the entire Harem these days.

Are you covering the Fred's game at fishville this weekend ?

I should be there, but as far as I know it will just be as a fan. I'll still have my camera with me of course, but will probably be taking photos from the stands. Good Luck to the Royals on Sunday. Don't forget to give my message to Leroy please

I mistyped, we play Saturday at Legacy.

Nice gentle drive down 95 & 64.

I must admit I find a certain satisfaction in hearing an opposing coach repeatedly say they are the better team but lost (again) to my team. It may well be true, but the real measure is whether you won or lost - whatever the reason.

Thankyou for bringing this back to topic, Daniel.

Yes, because it was so much better before, when you were making bigoted comments, right? :rolleyes:

Bit of a shocker to see the latest loss, 3-1 to Paraguay.
