russia definitely bossing the midfield

6/21/2008 3:21:16 PM

damn that ABC logo is big enough

6/21/2008 3:28:19 PM

Russians certainly look class today... really should be over but the Dutch have time still...

Sneijder with great delivery and Ruud buries it!

6/21/2008 4:21:17 PM

Great job, Russian Goalie

6/21/2008 4:28:22 PM

Russians love: cigarettes

Russians hate: shirts

6/21/2008 4:38:38 PM

goddamn WTVD. i dont care about this shit... show me the damn game

6/21/2008 4:47:58 PM

Russia really deserves to win... theyve outplayed the Dutch the entire game...

Too many wasted chances though...

** So every Russian male looks like he should be on Cops and every Dutch male looks like he just finished up 18 at the county club.

The Dutch back four is crap

6/21/2008 5:00:21 PM

My prediction for the final Russia-Turkey these 2 clubs have beaten the odds and if your the favorite you are going to lose

6/21/2008 5:13:53 PM

another dutch choke job

6/21/2008 5:14:13 PM

that was a horrible showing by the dutch, they looked like complete crap. You gotta give it up to arshavin and russia tho, they played awesome

6/21/2008 5:14:33 PM

Germany over Spain for the title. I love it when a plan comes together.

6/21/2008 5:16:24 PM

at least we get to see the real championship tomorrow!!11

6/21/2008 5:16:39 PM

im in favor of all of us calling WTVD and cussing them out for that weather bull shit, i mean that dude carried on way longer than need, i though he was gonna start showing us photos of his wife and kids

wtf,

anyways the dutch sucked ass today, everyone just stood still, no runs made, so they deserve to lose

6/21/2008 5:25:01 PM

^The worst part is that they cut away from the radar and then spend another 10 seconds saying "We now return you to your regular scheduled programing" and then there is the pause where they leave the logo on the screen and nothing happens. Just cut back to it without all of the BS.

6/21/2008 5:48:02 PM

sweet... i'm 0-3 this round w/my picks.

6/21/2008 5:57:56 PM

I think a lot of people are 0-3 with their picks. Today's was the most surprising to me. Russia has really impressed me twice in a row though, Spain or Italy will have their hands full.

6/21/2008 6:12:37 PM

definitely had germany, and thought arda would pull it off for turkey (luckily semih did), but i definitely didn't see holland blowing it. i foresaw a netherlands vs. germany final and hope for a good final with germany and spain.

6/21/2008 7:59:52 PM

no camoranesi whoopee

6/22/2008 2:41:38 PM

Go Spain...

If the Italians start getting the calls on their gay ass flops, actually make them hit the ground in pain for once...

6/22/2008 2:41:50 PM

card for spain already

6/22/2008 2:56:32 PM

Spain's getting shit on near the box... even the Italian knew he fouled him... he was pointing outside the box making sure it wasn't a penalty!

6/22/2008 3:27:44 PM

this ref is bloody awful.

6/22/2008 3:29:44 PM

italy is lucky the ref sucks

6/22/2008 3:37:36 PM

what a fucking dive by luca toni.

6/22/2008 3:51:02 PM

damn that was close - a few missed opportunities there

6/22/2008 4:03:23 PM

what is wrong with this ref. giving david villa a card for diving when he obviously just slipped. This is ridiculous

6/22/2008 4:15:18 PM

Spain is good but they're so fucking lazy about getting the ball up the pitch with any pace. They refuse to pass quickly and instead go for the bullshit flair plays that give Italy time to regroup.

6/22/2008 4:32:42 PM

yea spain isnt doing shit, but im getting so mad watching luca toni dive every time he gets near the ball. Spain needs roy keane out there to karate kick the shit out of his leg and set him straight

6/22/2008 4:37:46 PM

I'd rather have cantona for the karate kicking

6/22/2008 4:40:02 PM

i'm sure it's been said, but OT in soccer needs to be sudden death, rather than 2 15min halves.

6/22/2008 4:55:22 PM

Sometimes it is. But I think that would just make overtime way more laid back and defensive.

6/22/2008 4:58:25 PM

this embellishment bullshit needs to stop

6/22/2008 5:05:09 PM

wtf this is fucking ridiculous. Every time they fall down, the ref is calling off the play. This is the worst refereed game ive ever seen

6/22/2008 5:05:14 PM

Stupid BS...

6/22/2008 5:05:16 PM

Save!

6/22/2008 5:18:17 PM

save Italia! good shit here

then the leg injury fakin' fucker cocks up.

[Edited on June 22, 2008 at 5:21 PM. Reason : next]

6/22/2008 5:20:10 PM

Save again!

6/22/2008 5:20:46 PM

Spppaaaiinnnn does it

6/22/2008 5:21:36 PM

Fabregas

6/22/2008 5:21:59 PM

thank god. im surprised the ref didnt make him rekick it or some bullshit

6/22/2008 5:22:36 PM

sweet road flares in the stands



RED SHIPS OF SPAIN

6/22/2008 5:22:39 PM

spain deserved to beat italy - not by a whole lot but with the way the reffing was going italy just didn't deserve it

6/22/2008 5:22:58 PM

Yay Spain!!!!!!!!!

6/22/2008 5:22:59 PM

Now maybe we will get to see some games where teams actually try to score.

6/22/2008 5:30:36 PM

thats was a not so good game by both sides but the better team won
im starting to think russia is the best team left
