2010 wasn't so terrible. They were drawn with England, Slovenia, Algeria. They were able to advance and they lost to Ghana in the first knockout round. In 2006, they were in what most people considered the group of death, with Italy, Czech Rep., Ghana. They did not make it out of the group. They needed to beat Ghana in the last group game, but couldn't.

Read a little more about the draw. Man, it's gonna be tough. This is from the Soccer By Ives site: I don't know why FIFA seems to hate us so much, but it will definitely make for maximum drama. I'm so excited for this. I don't know how I"m gonna wait til summer.

Yeah, the group of death, without question. But apart from that, it's a really really interesting draw for the USA. In 2002, USA had a huge 3-2 upset win over Portugal which helped them get out of the group. Then they won their first knockout game and faced Germany in the round of 8. Germany got away with a pretty bad hand ball on the goal line late to stop the USA from tying the game and won 1-0. And there’s also the Germany Klinsmann connection which is huge. Of course Ghana sent us home in 2006 and 2010. Germany is currently #2 in the FIFA rankings and Portugal is #5. I think that’s generous for Portugal. USA will have to upset one of these powerhouses and take care of Ghana too in order to get out of the group. Won’t be easy. I can’t wait.

Thanks for posting. I didn't know these were out today. Oh, no! !@#$ing Ghana again!!!

I love records. I bought a fancy new turntable earlier this year. Somehow I missed Record Store day this year.

Happy Birthday, Dog867-5309!

Fergy shows incredible bravery bringing up Bill Ocean.

Jack is legendary among the ladies for his magnificent member. He needs to spend only a few moments with a woman before she yells out, “what a dick!”

Mead has never, not even once, blown a game by fumbling in the fourth quarter. Clutch! EDIT: D'oh! I was a little late on that one. Gugny is an excellent disco roller skater. I'm talking world class.

Almost two & a half.

I thought I explained this already. She is not a witch. She's a magical mermaid princess. She uses her superpowers only for good. However, her regular powers are pretty impressive too and she'll use those for whatever she feels like, including running a fool over with her tricycle.

Ah, that's a good one. I need to watch this one again. It's been about a decade since I've seen it.

Zuzu pick is in. Bills will win by "a lot" over the Bucs Bonus pick: Cowboys over the Bears (she couldn't give me any other info on this one)

Yeah, that's the winner

Beerball is--I have to be careful here so I don't get banned--Beerball is..."differently minded."

I agree with the ones mentioned so far. My daughter Zuzu takes her name from the little girl with the rose petals in It's a Wonderful Life. I haven't seen Polar Express. We'll have to check that one out.

It's not that you don't let them choose. It's just that if it's something you share with them from a very early age and it becomes something you do together (cheering and suffering for the Bills), then it's likely to stick with them. I've had the same thoughts with my little one.

That one hurt a lot. Bills 4-8 Zuzu 11-1

My little girl just gave me her pick for tomorrow's game. Keep in mind she's 10-1 picking Bills games. She was reluctant to make the pick, but she finally said that the Falcons will win. She also sees a very close, high scoring game. I hope she's wrong, but I wouldn't bet against it.

I'm "this drunk" right now. Only dumb luck has kept this from happening to me so far.

Charge it to the Underhills!

Good win for the boys yesterday. Enjoy your day off!

Freudian slip?

This is just the worst stuff that can happen and it's hard to read about. I don't know how a young person can have that reckless of an attitude and go around bragging about being a disgusting self-centered party skank. Makes me wonder where her parents are and what they hell they were thinking (or NOT thinking). Seems there are lots of idiots like this around advertising their idiocy on social media. Many get lucky and get a life shock that doesn't involve two innocent young people dying. This particular skank was not so lucky and will pay full price for being a **** person. And she won't get the chance to be anything other than that. Tragic all around.

3 Dollar Cafe in Atlanta is a joke. Their wings are not terrible, but they shouldn't make the top 25 in Atlanta. It's just a chain around here and probably the only place in this region the writers of this article have heard of.
