Re: 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa

he scored against England in a meaningless match 17 years ago, lol

I love how the other "non espn" guest whoever it is always looks at him in disbelief as if to say, are these words really coming out of this assholes mouth?

Well sports stars sometimes don't make the best commentators ie Charles Barkley & Terry Bradshaw.

. Those free kicks by Japan were badass!

As much as I did not want Japan to win, I couldn't agree more.

Charles Barkley is great on TNT, he's honest, insightful and funny
Alexi Lalas is hardly a star, lol

Charles Barkley rambles like a drunk although I agree he is funny at times and Alexi is one of the only members of the US soccer team I remember as a kid besides Cobi Jones. Great defender from what I can recall (or maybe it was the hair and goatee)

I guess I just like Charles because he doesnt care about being PC, he just speaks his mind

He, Lalas, wasn't great, solid, but sllllllloooooooooooooowwwwwwwwww
never had a problem with him until I started hearing his lack of knowledge of the global game.. John Harkes is another one, adds absolutely nothing to the commentary, is deathly afraid of dead air.. someone needs to tell him he doesn't have to keep talking for the whole 90 minutes, we don't care what you did 20 years ago.. similar to the tools that do Sunday night baseball on ESPN, love to hear themselves talk and stroke their own egos, lol

World Cup 2010: England and Germany get red-card happy referee

The England and Germany players who face each other in Bloemfontein on Sunday will have to tread with some caution after it was announced today that the referee in charge of the last-16 tie is known for his high red-card rate.
Jorge Larrionda, of Uruguay, has dismissed a player in an incredible 70% of games he has refereed since making his international debut as an official in 1999. At the last World Cup, the 42-year-old send off three players in the group match between Italy and the USA.

Re: 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa

Dont worry Steve, Larrionda normally is a good referee...

Cmon Ivory Coast!!! Only 8 goals left!!!!
