    armando was arguably the better ball handler, not necessarily the better shooter

    Dude could become his own meme... or at least a verb...

    To Dzemaili, meaning to fail.

    Or perhaps he will become a silent hero to junior-high boys everywhere.

    Kind of feel bad for Switzerland. They would have deserved a penalty shootout. But hey, that's football.

    Also, that was the last match for Ottmar Hitzfeld. One of the truly great coaches. Makes one a little nostalgic as a Bayern fan.

    He's scared, shy, worried, or maybe nervous... the entire four games he's been on the pitch. :eek:

    If the NBA use their version of a penalty shootout, it will be a one-on-one contest with a 10-second shot clock. Imagine these dream matchups to decide the winner and the end of the game:
    Kobe vs. Lebron
    Dwight vs. Duncan
    Griffin vs. Melo
    CP3 vs. Curry
    Kawhi vs. Durant
    Love vs. Noah
    Westbrook vs. Beverly
    Harden vs. D-Wade

    If they win it all, he's going to get so many Colombian women at his place. He will be the luckiest guy ever in the world and G.O.A.T.

    Belgium isn't knocking on the door, they are pounding on it.

    We'll damn. Mexico out, USA in their last minutes, and now Costa Rica is the only Concacaf team left. Still a chance US makes a comeback, but it would require a miracle.

    This is why I didnt want to play Belgium.

    We have no midfield and Belgium has too much talent and was just dominating the ball. They were extremely wasteful in the first 120 minutes and lucky for us Lukaku was not in.

    Until we develop some midfield talent, we are going to go through this every four years.

    We have some midfield talent but when Altidore went out one of our most creative midfielders had to play up top.

    So our midfield was ONE player?

    In that case....we need to develop our midfield play.
