View Full Version : World CUP: Misc talk Natey 06-01-2006, 03:42 PM anyone going to watch it G-MoNeY 06-02-2006, 02:46 AM yea Natey 06-02-2006, 02:21 PM im going to trinadad and tabago and the USA CORaiderFan 06-06-2006, 02:49 PM im going to trinadad and tabago and the USA What does that mean? are you going to some of their matches? Which ones? Your sig is pretty funny if you are 5 years old;) Natey 06-06-2006, 02:59 PM What? i meant i am going for. sorry, typo. And my sig is nothing but the truth CORaiderFan 06-06-2006, 03:14 PM I thought you were going to the games and I thought it was curious that you picked those two countries. Your sig is true if the Faiders are your nephews Tball team - :) just kidding. I think the US team hopes all center around the Italians. The Czech team IMO is probably in the top 2 or 3 in the CUP. For the US to advance with the Czechs they need to beat or tie the Italians and then beat Ghana. I think 4 points out of their group would give them a decent chance to advance. Here is my picks on who will make it out of the first round Group A- Poland – Germany B- England – Sweden C- Argentina – Holland D- Portugal – Mexico E- USA – Czech F- Brazil – Croatia G- France – Korea H- Spain – Ukraine MasterShake2388 06-06-2006, 03:25 PM duuh USA is overrated big time Go England! CORaiderFan 06-06-2006, 03:43 PM duuh USA is overrated big time Go England! You take no risk at saying US is overrated. FIFA ranks teams by whom they beat and who they play. The US beats EVERY team they are supposed and that is why they get the high ranking. I agree that there is no way US is number 5 in the world but, NO team will take the US lightly. Kasey Keller is world class and can be judged on the level of any world cup soccer goalie. He alone can keep us in games. What happened in 2002 was not an accident or by luck. The US actually outplayed the Germans but, lost. Fact of the matter is the US is not that far behind the better soccer countries in the world. Wow - England. Every cup they are expected to do good and every cup they find a way to get knocked out and early at that. MasterShake2388 06-06-2006, 04:11 PM You take no risk at saying US is overrated.

Ey, im not sayin they should be takin lightly but I just think there overrated, and ey im not gonna sit here and defend England.. were not overrated, were chokers =) and history may repeat itself with Rooney out now =/ CANRaiderFan5 06-06-2006, 04:15 PM I dont' follow soccer but I'll probably watch a bit. I look forward to seeing England and Italy play every year. :) CORaiderFan 06-06-2006, 04:32 PM Ey, im not sayin they should be takin lightly but I just think there overrated, and ey im not gonna sit here and defend England.. were not overrated, were chokers =) and history may repeat itself with Rooney out now =/ I hear you - England SHOULD do some damage. It seems like England and the Italians are expected to go far every cup and they find a way to implode by a red card, a missed opportunity/goal or something. Rooney practice today and it looks like he is expected to play in the fist round of qualifying, maybe in the opener vs. Paraguay. He is an incredible talent. If Owens and Rooney get healthy England should be in good shape. England has a pretty easy group - so maybe they can ease him back into play and save him for the next rounds. You Canadian, ey?

First i hope i dont have a nephew because im 13 lol! Those are some pretty good picks but where T&T (trindadad and Tabago) baby?

Their a great soccer team and the have home field CORaiderFan 06-07-2006, 06:54 PM Here is a safe ESPN like prediction - Brazil or whoever beats Brazil will win. Take that to the bank. jimi18 06-07-2006, 07:54 PM I was a top one of the leaders in goals on my 14-16. amd 16-18 teams... and i coached my son for a few season as well... soccer is very more physical than some think... maybe not collision, but physical Code707 06-07-2006, 08:02 PM Ggggooooooooaaaaaaaaalllllllll jimi18 06-07-2006, 11:58 PM Link:http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/5674882 jimi18 06-08-2006, 01:56 AM http://www.miniclip.com/football/start.html MasterShake2388 06-08-2006, 02:40 AM Go England CORaiderFan 06-08-2006, 09:27 AM I was a top one of the leaders in goals on my 14-16. amd 16-18 teams... and i coached my son for a few season as well... soccer is very more physical than some think... maybe not collision, but physical the BEST athletes in the world play soccer. jimi we should being seeing you in the next cup?

SiverandBlack_80 06-08-2006, 05:00 PM It will be tough for the U.S to get past, Italy and the Czechs' CORaiderFan 06-08-2006, 05:41 PM so whos your fav player on this years US team? I have always been a fan of Claudio Reyna. I used to go watch the San Jose MLS team when Donovan was there and he was great to watch I am really on the Clint Dempsey band wagon. This guys style of play is like controlled chaos. If he gets some playing time he will surely make a name for himself in the world of Futbol. IMO the US players that are going to have a breakout Cup Eddie Johnson, Clint Dempsey and Onyewu Natey 06-08-2006, 11:01 PM the BEST athletes in the world play soccer. jimi we should being seeing you in the next cup?

I was surprised by Germany. They looked crisp, fast and even athletic. Something I'm not used to seeing from the German squad. The knock on them was offense, but I saw plenty in their first match..... The High Flyin' Dutch were amazing! Granted they didn't play the best team, but it's still the World Cup and they dominated time of posession with around 70 minutes of posession! Argentina looked good to me, but not dominating.... England is a good team, but seemingly overrated still. Bechham played lights out, Rooney was obviously injured and sat out, but the Brits should've played better IMO... Poland got beat down by Ecuador.... Sweden ran into one of the best games by a goalie thus far in the Cup. They played to a draw, but the Swedes were the better team and needed to pull out a win, but the goalie for Tinidad & Tobago was excellent.... Natey 06-12-2006, 12:11 PM USA down 1-0. com on USA! MasterShake2388 06-12-2006, 12:21 PM lets go Czech! bgrn 06-12-2006, 12:31 PM lets go Czech! ??? Are you Czech? MasterShake2388 06-12-2006, 12:34 PM ???

Hawaiian Raider 06-12-2006, 01:23 PM Oh well. :cool: Code707 06-12-2006, 01:29 PM Frustrating! I mean even the announcers are stressed out. lol Now I wonder if the team partied last night. MasterShake2388 06-12-2006, 01:58 PM now thats a wake-up call! SiverandBlack_80 06-12-2006, 02:05 PM :eek: #5? Well they did play the #2 ranked team. Horrible display. Natey 06-12-2006, 02:33 PM Im with USA no matter what. USA did need a wake up call and are obviously overrated. CORaiderFan 06-13-2006, 11:23 AM course not but im ready to see that USA team get exposed, #5 in the world? heh. the real question - are you ready to see England choke? d-mac37 06-13-2006, 01:47 PM Wake me when it's over........ d-mac37 06-13-2006, 01:50 PM Any games on today?

Natey 06-13-2006, 02:25 PM the real question - are you ready to see England choke? England losing to Trinidad and Tobago this Thursday! MasterShake2388 06-13-2006, 04:48 PM England losing to Trinidad and Tobago this Thursday! LOOOOOOOOL CORaiderFan 06-13-2006, 05:05 PM Any games on today? I could really use a nap....... The game is to advanced for the simple minded. CORaiderFan 06-13-2006, 05:32 PM Wake me when it's over........ I am sure you can find something more interesting to do while the world cup is going on - Like watching monster truck racing and Professional Wrestling! Natey 06-13-2006, 07:20 PM Monster trucks are ok but WWE SUCKS! Natey 06-13-2006, 07:22 PM o Burn! BOBBYC 06-14-2006, 03:03 PM did anyone see the spain vs ukraine game today, the referee was shocking!!!! the red card he gave was an unbelivebly bad decision CORaiderFan 06-14-2006, 04:25 PM did anyone see the spain vs ukraine game today, the referee was shocking!!!! the red card he gave was an unbelivebly bad decision That red card was absolute crap! It should not have even been a foul let alone a red card/penalty shot. It was a Swiss ref that made the call from midfield about 30-40 yards behind the play. That gets my vote for worse call of the cup - so far. Spain was already up 2-0 so, it does not appear that it effect the outcome. I was hoping to see the Ukraine striker Shevchenko rip it up. He is coming off injury and was questionable for the start. Spain looks to be one of the top teams in the Cup with the Czechs, Brazilians and Argentines. Shevchenko was in the top 3 running for FIFA player of the year Natey 06-14-2006, 05:40 PM Wutta crap call. The last to games were decided by the last minutes! Tunisia with a big late goal tying the game and Germany at the 93rd minute barley beating Poland d-mac37 06-14-2006, 09:09 PM I am sure you can find something more interesting to do while the world cup is going on - Like watching monster truck racing and Professional Wrestling! Wrong. Wrong. & Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. d-mac37 06-14-2006, 09:10 PM The game is to advanced for the simple minded. LOL..... BTW, it's "too" advanced. Natey 06-14-2006, 10:14 PM LOL i see fight coming RandyTheRaider 06-15-2006, 05:31 AM usa sucks Natey 06-15-2006, 09:56 AM at soccer yes. but as a whole no CORaiderFan 06-15-2006, 01:51 PM at soccer yes. but as a whole no They lose to the Czech's who are ranked #2 in the world and they suck? Come on now. Let's wait and see who the Czech's do in the cup before giving up on the US. Many have the Czech's only second to the Brazilians to win the cup. great teams manage to make lesser teams look bad. The US should be down on how they played but, they are still a quality team. LOL i see fight coming Hooliganism!!! http://www.kidssoccerworld.com/junstuff/ancient%20cartoon.jpg Natey 06-15-2006, 02:01 PM te he i want to some so punching and bitin and kickinig and stabbing...... CORaiderFan 06-15-2006, 05:04 PM My top ten from week one. Spain Played as good as the top teams and converted muchos goals. Argentina Next to Spain played the best 1st game Czechs Look to be a contender Brazil expected more out of the powerhouse but, still Brazil England Not playing up to their power great defense Germans with who they have played nothing suprising. The Dutch look really good. Should go far in the tournament. Ecuador Biggest surprise of WC2006 Portugal look good after one match Italy dont expect to see them flash until they play the Czechs. Will be very defensive vs. US Natey 06-15-2006, 05:49 PM did you know T&T is the smallest country to qualify for the World Cup MasterShake2388 06-15-2006, 06:42 PM did you know that England whooped that ass 2-0? Natey 06-15-2006, 07:04 PM yea till the 83rd minute! BOBBYC 06-16-2006, 08:09 AM [QUOTE=CORaiderFan]They lose to the Czech's who are ranked #2 in the world and they suck? Come on now.

The US should be down on how they played but, they are still a quality team. the czech's are an average team at best who just happen to have some exceptional players, nedved,cech and possibly rosicky. They will qualify but they are not a match for the bigger sides, they are 9th favourite to win the cup and they dont have any depth to their squad BOBBYC 06-16-2006, 10:28 AM nothing to do with the world cup but check these goals out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbX1LlS0CEY&search=bressan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ITRuG1jK8Q&search=zlaTAN%20IBRAHIMOVIC http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aadXVv9wCpo&search=trevor%20sinclair CORaiderFan 06-16-2006, 02:28 PM the czech's are an average team at best who just happen to have some exceptional players, nedved,cech and possibly rosicky. They will qualify but they are not a match for the bigger sides, they are 9th favourite to win the cup and they dont have any depth to their squad This is the same Czech team that beat Germany and Holland in Euro2004 on it's way to the semis. This team is built to win now. They could easily draw Australia (and dodge Brazil!) in the next round and be in the field of 8 with not much of a struggle. I do not agree with average - but we can wait and see. The way Argentina and Spain are playing - any team in the cup can look average. Natey 06-16-2006, 10:37 PM I think we have the toughest group with czech being ranked n.2 and italy is the n.1 seed in the group and we are great soccer team. That makes you feel bad for ghana lol! MasterShake2388 06-16-2006, 10:56 PM I think we have the toughest group with czech being ranked n.2 and italy is the n.1 seed in the group and we are great soccer team.

CORaiderFan 06-19-2006, 06:55 PM I would say Pretty good.. not great, maybe solid. then England would be pretty solid? :D MasterShake2388 06-19-2006, 10:06 PM then England would be pretty solid? :D nah England is Top 5 =) d-mac37 06-20-2006, 01:11 AM Gooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal! CORaiderFan 06-21-2006, 02:41 PM nah England is Top 5 =) That goal by Cole was insane - Gerrards was not that shabby either. Looked like England might finally beat Sweden and then that little dribler rolled all the way into the net. http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41791000/jpg/_41791842_larsson_getty.jpg It looks like Owens is out for a long time. He did not seem to being doing very well IMO. Congrats on the Heat winning. Natey 06-26-2006, 08:20 PM man freaking exciting games today CORaiderFan 06-29-2006, 05:41 PM Looks like it is down to the field of 8 Tomorrows Games - Germany v Argentina 900AM ESPN Italy v Ukraine 100PM ESPN2 Ukraine should not even be in the mix. I think Argentina is playing better but it is in Germany and they have been playing great. Ill say Argentina and Italy Saturday we have - England v Portugal 900AM ABC Brazil v France 100PM ESPN These are some tough games. I would have never expected France to make it this far. The are playing with a fire in their arse and could possible give Brazil a run for it but, in the end - Brazil England vs. Portugal England IMO has played flat all cup. Will this be their break out game our with Figo stick it to the English? I'll say Portugal & Brazil This will be one of the best two days of soccer in awhile - maybe even dmac will be cheering on the French. HAHAHA CORaiderFan 06-30-2006, 02:14 PM You can take my picks to the bank....errrr or the opposite. Will it be the Ukraine in the afternoon game? http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41832000/jpg/_41832330_afans_ap416.jpg Natey 06-30-2006, 02:20 PM great game this morning. Germany and argentina played great. I want to see England and Germany in the WORLD CUP championship game. if that happens you will see riots CORaiderFan 06-30-2006, 05:37 PM Germany vs. Italy will get pretty ugly but, you are correct Germany and England will be a blood bath. I can not see Portugal or England getting past Brazil. I think the French have the best chance to be the Brazilians - Remember France spanked Brazil 3-0 in 98 - oh yah it was in France. Natey 06-30-2006, 06:04 PM you never know Brazil has great player but they dont work together that great RandyTheRaider 07-01-2006, 11:23 AM italy or brazil.
