1. Sweeeeeeet
Although they were outplayed through large stretches of the match, Lloyd slots in a winner in OT and the US steals it!!!!

2. Awesome!
thats good to hear. It sucks that NBC hasn't shown it yet. Their broadcast schedule for the summer olympics really sucks this year. All day long they have been showing soap operas, in denver at least. I want to watch the frickin olympics. At least pre-filmed events since day here is the middle of the night here.

Last night they weren't even showing anything live. They were showing things from the previous night. WTF thats what all day here is for. when its night here and morning there I want to watch stuff live!

grrr..

oh yeah. Congrats to the women's soccer team again.

7. It was an EXCELLENT game! I love soccer when it's well-played.

Lloyd's goal was a classic! Solo was wonderful in goal. The Brazilian women are awesome, too. Marta in particular is a joy to watch.

:party:

My sleeping schedule gets disrupted every three years for World Cup soccer ... the best of the best.

10. that was a great game, one of the best. tonight, Nigeria and Argentina at
midnight EST on CNBC. That should be a barn burner. Nigeria is so fast. I want Nigeria to win.
