Woohoo! Go Ireland! Victorious with a one all draw against Cameroon!
Germany was a bit cruel though, 8 nil??? Talk about overkill...

Anybody else watching?

Actually I don't pay much attention to the other football. I was raised with American football and baseball. I know soccer is getting more popular in the US, butI just don't get it. I also don't get basketball or hockey. How do you keep track of what is going on with everybody moving all over the place? With the US getting a win over Mexico, I'm sure we are going to hear a LOT mnore about over the next few years. Maybe I will figure it out by the next World Cup.

Group E for 2006 is a difficult group

Czech Republic
Ghana
Italy
United States

The U.S. Soccer Federation received more than 40,000 applications for tickets, and sold out its initial allotment of 10,000 in a day. Another 5,000 tickets were bought by American fans through FIFA, the international soccer federation.

US Team doesn't play until the 12th, but then I'll be watching. I'm also rooting for England because of Owens. But I would like to see the US do better than it did last time (although last time it did do better than anyone expected).

. . .in my terrible, awful, politically bias way of 'let's not go to war', I'd like to see them stomp the hell out of Iran and Mexico. Admittedly, I don't even know if that match up would be possible, though.

One day.

The match up is possible, but unlikely because it would depend on both teams getting to at least the semis (you're in the bottom half of the draw, iran and mexico are in the top)

I'd like to see a USA v Iran tie as there'd be a lot of passion there, and although underdogs I think they'd be a match for you. Mexico would probably beat you. France (in case you were wondering) would stomp on you.

Well, we've been beating Mexico recently. It happened WC and it happened again this past fall.

As for the frogs . . .well, we'll see. Should it happen.
