I do believe that the US is the only team to score on the Italians...even though it was technically their guido who hit it in. You have to
love US domination! How ironic would a France v. Italy final be? You wouldn't have to save any seats for family of war heroes would you?

PS...who is this chick on espn...does she play soccer? What they couldn't scrape up Susy Kolbert? Musberger just looks old.
The French would surrender, but they just heard the Italian coach and his girlfriend were publically hanged so they'll take a shot.
Just some sarcastic historical humor, no offense.

We played a very good game against Italy, but it was our very first ever point in World Cup play. We're terrible in general.

Because without the guts of the fighting men of the good old US of A,
those cowardly nations wouldn't be free to play their stupid game of
"kick a ball back and forth for no particular reason other than to bore any spectators still awake into a coma."

On the rare occacsion when anyone thinks of you, they only think of one record...bets paid: 0

Not to stir the pot as I don't want any lunatic soccer fans to call me anti-american but, didn't Italy score on themselves?
JoeStalin, I have a vintage French army rifle from WWII. Do you have any interest in purchasing it? Its never been fired and only dropped once.

Yes -- but it was on a long cross and it tipped off an outstretched defender. Of course your right though. Had the defender slipped our player would have had to redirect it and that proved to be non-trivial all three games.
I also love these Fila commercials....are we supposed to understand this? Is this how all the Italians and Brazilians grow up..playing the
rough game of soccer on a hard ground with no pads? Do they practice all their fake falls and shin grabbing at such a young age? Does
the unpopular kid have to play ref, and constantly gets sand thrown in his eyes so he is for the most part blind..only seeing in two
colors..red and yellow?
I really can't wait until this garbage is over...no falls, no crying, no blind refs, no musberger.
the real one and ONLY futbol is right around the corner!
me gusta futbol americano!!!!

<< <i>If you check the stats we did indeed score on Mario and company. >>
Incorrect. If you check the game summary you'll notice the goal is credited to Zaccardo with the "OG" notation for Own Goal. The only team to score on Italy in this tournament has been Italy.

Best line from the new release "League of Their Own 2 - A World Cup Story."
"Acting! There's no acting in soccer!"

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the Germans would probably be doing quite well for themselves if it wasn't for the fighting men of the good old US of A.
Let's see-- if it weren't for the French the 'good old US of A' would still be under the Union Jack (as you'l recall the French made a fairly substantial contribution to the Continental Army's cause during the Revolutionary War). So that means.... (just pick one of the following)
a) We should all eat at least one baguette every week.
b) We should shut up and start watching soccer.
c) We should come to the startling conclusion that just because your country helped another country win a war doesn't mean that other country needs to fall in love with your sporting events.
under that flag! At least the Poles put up a fight!
With all that stink and armpit hair in the finals, how can anyone breath in the stadium? Lets see France's greatest defeat......???? Italy...Ethiopia.
sounds like something I want to watch!!

I am one of the many, who are sick of anything French, and that line I said, would be pretty much, right on!!!!
