    And why do you have two modifiers sandwiching "comment"? I think "off-the-wall, unwarranted comment" makes much more sense. I know you're not an English professor even though you play one here. But can you explain why you used that clause the way you did?

    Since 1980, U.S. has posted a 9-8-7 record in the series and has won five of the seven matches played since 2000. The U.S. outscored Mexico by a total of 10-1 in those five matches.

    Mexico has not scored more than two goals against the U.S. since a 4-0 win on July 25, 1993, at Mexico City. The U.S. has scored three or more goals in five of the 47 meetings between the two sides -- most recently in a 3-0 win on June 11, 2000, at Giants Stadium in the U.S. Cup final.

    U.S. vs. Mexico -- 1999-2002
    Soccer matches between Mexico and the United States played during the tenure of U.S. head coach Bruce Arena.

    I am still not offended. *sigh*...
    I agree with your sentiment about restructuring my sentence. Initially, I had a different noun after "comment" and a comma, but I deleted it and left "unwarranted at the end." :( I shall proofread my comments more closely in the future to prevent this and dangling participles.

    giants stadium???? gold cup??? :confused:

    Check the scoreboard. LAST TWO GAMES. Who has them?

    Really? You're counting CONCACAF?

    Maybe we should include little league soccer too.

    Do MEXICO and the USA play little league soccer games...? I didn't know. OK, let's. I don't know where to get that info.

    It's MEXICO vs. USA. What else are we talking about here, sir? :confused: What, did I bring up the women national team, or something?

    Your attention to detail is failing. Why did you pick "under Bruce Arena"? What, he's the current coach, or something?

    Of course you didn't bring up the women's national team. US women would whip Mexican women's ass.

    Bring it up. As long as it's truth, not lies, like you did up there with your facts about Mexico not scoring more than 4... it's welcome. Of course USA women are better at soccer than Mexico's now. No argument there, sir. :eek: But, stop lying.

    ^ :grin: You can't have an opinion about a fact... you liar. If a referee misses a call, so he misses it whether it was Brazil, Ghana, or The Vatican's national team. End of story. Game was over. No one is crying over that. It's in the past. So Argentina advances.

    I will smash your face into a car windshield, and then take your mother out for a nice seafood dinner and never call her again.

    Hahahaha... except it just bounces off me, man. The World Cup and anything "national soccer team" is done. Anyone but SPAIN is a loser. How is that for an insult? :p You fail'd, friendo. That's not offensive at all, dear sir.

    This thread is rich, coming from a DaDakota wannabe.

    Attention seeker receiving attention. Feeling better now?
