You should watch more soccer, this is par for the course for the once great portugal. Overrated. Portugal is a lot like how Spain used to be. I watch a TON of soccer btw. Bonus points for you if you can figure out what my username is all about. *hint*...think soccer. im assuming it represents the overrated group of pre madonnas that get way overpayed...that are the three lions? ill give it to england they are young and fast....but man they should be sOOOOO much better.

I remember 2006...pretty sure Italy won the whole thing. They tied USA 1-1 but Italy did score on themselves.
The US have gotten better over the yrs and should not be seen as pushovers as they once were. They've got it tough though in this group. I love seeing Portugal get trounced so i would love to see a US win over them....

But the usa with bob bradley shouldnt be considered now that we have gotten better. And giusseppi rossi is a traitor...TREASONous little puke.

If we dont beat ghana...or at leat get a draw...then its game over BUT, i think the idea this is the group of death is greatly exaggerated.
Englands group is just as hard, there are a few pretty tough groups.
I still think we can get through on a draw because my prediction is portugal goes 0-3

Seria A may not be as good as it once was but Italy's National team is still one of the top teams in these types of Tourny's. Prandelli has changed the National team for the better. I like Rossi Wish he wouldn't have gotten hurt this yr or so much lately, would have loved to have him on the team.

But he is the reason i dont feel bad about our german american pipeline. That and its pretty crazy how many american service members had children overseas.

I believe they called themselves or the fans called them the "Lisbon (where EuroCup was held that year) Lions"

Germany's performance was pure domination. You can't beat them, they're too good and you suck something aweful.

Initially I wanted my PlayStation name to be lisbonlions67 but it was taken. I have been using lions67 ever since for everything. Since 2003 actually.
