    if mexico fans weren't so annoying about their fandom, i'm including the baby mama and son, I'd cheer for them and wear an hugo sanchez jersey. As is, I'm just expecting one hell of a game.

    Yeah Mexico fans are an unpleasant bunch. They're pissed that the USA is now the titan of CONCACAF which makes the Mexicans very defensive and bitter.

    I think the Dutch destroy them today. 3-0.

    I was impressed with Mexico in the group stage.... Usually I would go with whoever plays better but I am not sure Defense can overcome Offense this time.

    Good luck, Mexico!

    Is there any way both mexico and holland can be eliminated today? That would make me the happiest.

    If they are trying to harm each other in a very negative way

    Probably one will survive

    I'm really worried about the conditions - Mexico will be able to handle the heat and humidity, we won't. Hope we score in the first half, otherwise I give Mexico a slight edge anywhere from 60 minutes onwards...

    I'll say that it has nothing to do with my love of Total Football and my favorite players from my youth (Van Basten, Gullit, Overmars, and Rijkaard) and many of the Dutch I've met.

    It might have to do with the Dutch company I poured the last 7 years of my life into that fired me without cause.

    That is true. But robben and van persie are playing amazing. We will win.

    Are you in the netherlands, or watching dutch tv. The commentators are so annoying. Hugo borst and Willem van hanegem are sooo negative. It really is annoying

    van Hanegem - find him very annoying these days. He barely answers the questions - as if, "why are you asking me?" And that's me as a Feyenoord supporter. Yeah watching Dutch TV... Borst is being a bit annoying also, but I am enjoying seeing him on TV again.

    I hope you're right. Just saw Robben's bicycle kick in the warm-up - hope he does it!

    Yeah van hanegem always does that. I am also a feyenoord fan. But i cannot stand him.

    Borst is becoming a parody on his former self. He is becoming a character he is playing.

    Van marwijk is also so negative. You really get the impression they want our team to lose...

    Good luck everybody and enjoy the game.
