Where are you going to get your streams from?

Hoping I can use my parent's DISH login to use the WatchESPN stream.

Got it. The only game I will miss will be the last game against Germany (its at 12:00). Ill be able to watch the other two. I just hope we can get past Ghana. They've been a pretty tough out the last 2 world cups....

 

[Cyclonin]

Beating Ghana is key. We start off with 3 instead of 1 or 0 and that will go along ways.

I can't wait! There is something I can't describe that has a feel that for me, any game in the WC is a huge deal and I'm hooked.

Me until 1:30 tomorrow when I get off work:

I am so pumped! Love the World Cup. Behind the NCAA Tournament, it is my favorite tournament.

Hope U.S. gets out of the group. It will take some serious work and a few lucky breaks, undoubtedly.

It's in a perfect timezone for us in the CDT as well.

Everyone in the DSM area should come watch the US games at Keg Stand.

It's best for me to stay away from large quantities of readily available party lickers while watching US WC matches.

I get that way too. I think part of it that I can pretend that they aren't playing for money or anything like that, but are instead playing for love of country. It feels a lot like the olympics to me.

Portugal is battling some injuries by the sounds of it which will help.

And I'm actually not feeling as bad about Germany as I was after watching their tune up matches. They're still going to be the massive favorite, but I have more confidence that we could hold them for a draw (which was all I was expecting anyway).

 

[Goothrey]

Doesn't look like we have any expectations. My interest level feigns.

Feigns? Wanes?

Wayans.

if we beat Ghana I'll feel much better about our chances of moving out of the group stage

I think the ceiling for the United States is picking up 4 points in the group stage.

I agree. Im thinking we draw with Germany and Portugal, and defeat Ghana. We have to hope Germany wins their other two, and Portugal can draw with Ghana. This is best case I think.

Bingo, lucky for the USA that Germany and Portugal play each other first therefore possibly putting Portugal immediately in a hole

I hope Germany cruises in their first two games, and has a "let down" against us..maybe we can sneak a tie.
