Zips get zip

FEAR THE ROO!

Dear Caleb,
Please recruit a frosh that knows how to keep his head up in the final third and can deliver a killer through ball.

Wait, they're probably playing in Europe already. :)

They find one, and the Zips would truly be perfect.

Well done boys. You made me proud to be a Zip.

WOO-HOO!

Okay, not as much pain as I thought. The US should be able to get through to the knockout phases.

I'm a pothead.

It's official. Here are the pots to be drawn from for the World Cup draw.

POT 1- Brazil, Spain, Argentina, Netherlands, England, Italy, Germany, South Africa

POT 2- USA, Mexico, Honduras, South Korea, North Korea, Japan, Australia, New Zealand

POT 3- Paraguay, Uruguay, Chile, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Nigeria, Algeria

POT 4- France, Portugal, Denmark, Slovenia, Greece, Slovakia, Serbia, Switzerland

My prediction for the US? PAAAAIN.

The Yanks have gotta avoid France and Portugal from pot 4. No one will take the US lightly this time around, and to be blunt our form hasn't been to most impressive lately. That includes the Confederations Cup.

Let's be honest here, The only difference between the Spain semi and the Brazil final was that Brazil found a way to finish their chances in the second half.

I guess my Arsenal Henry jersey is gonna stay in the closet for a little while. I don't want to get hit in the back by a chair thrown by an angry Irishman.

They got a beef, though.

Hey Becks! Sign my book!

I just finished reading The Beckham Experiment by Grant Wahl and I gotta say Posh Boy gets off lighter than I expected. The LA Galaxy were the zoo I expected they were the previous two seasons, but Becks seems more like the guy who was handed the reigns of a golden elephant and that bad boy just took off stampeding wherever the hell it wanted to. Davy's just holding on for the ride. I don't think Beckham's smart enough to be the man behind the curtain.

It's more like he's the puppet with some pretty powerful puppetmasters.

Either way it's a good read. Great insight on the inner workings and string pulling behind the scenes.

WTF?

I got nothing.

Sometimes things are bigger than the game.

My heart goes out to all involved in the accident, their families, and their friends.
