Reading The Times match report right now: "Some predicted there would be as many Americans as English in Rustenburg but it was not even close: the flags of St George were splashed around the rim of this bowl-shaped arena name-checking boroughs from Addlestone to Scunthorpe." Odd, as all the media outlets over here our saying we outnumbered your fans, but didn't drape as many flags and the like around.

Well, this is what we all wanted to see, really.

Commentators over here say the field is part synthetic grass, but natural. Kind of odd, maybe it's also having an effect.

Handanovic is quality, beating him is going to be the hardest thing the US an England will have to do to beat Slovenia.

Up early for this one. Hope no Robert Green like errors out there, totally ruins the integrity of such a high level game.

I'd like to see John Terry rap and dance like that.

Our back line was surprisingly good today, sans the goal. DeMerit and Onyewu continued a solid partnership, and I always forget how good Cherundolo actually is. A rough road ahead, we have to completely change out style for the next few games, I think we can do it.

This is going to help me get though work. So happy.

Tomorrow's games should be pretty good. Good teams to watch, evenly matched, and an important group game.

:smitten: :smug:

Fucking ecstatic! Gritty performance, full of heart, just beautiful. Green was the guy I wanted in net, and it worked out well. Howard was fucking great too. Jesus Christ, great start!

You'll probably regret that if you lose. I have undecided. Too many distractions.

Off to a pub in a matter of minutes. Think I may bring my computer with me for some forum entertainment.

That's the perfect way to put it. Even when he was nervous during the anthem, I wanted to just hug the guy. I got a pretty big smile when he was celebrating at the end. What a good guy he is, deserves any good thing he gets.

I've already taken like 3 nervous shits.

Quite a game from Enyeama.

Damn. If Argentina don't win this, that's just dreadful.

Oba!
