Well then.
And Germany ties with Ghana. So all the USA needs to do is beat Portugal to advance out of groups with a loss to Germany.
Ironbite-maybe I shouldn't have wrote the USA off before this thing started.

Well now since we (U.S) tied with Portugal, we need to tie or beat Germany to capture the second spot in the group ranking for a chance at the playoffs.
Soccer is destroying the USA. So says conservative syndicated columnist Ann Coulter.
And next on "Coultergeist: The Series":

Now I'm torn. On the one hand, I'm no great sports fan myself; I think our culture's worship of athletes goes beyond any sort of pale. I played soccer for a few years in school and found the entire sports experience toxic; for all the talk of teamwork and everyone pulling together, I was the team punching bag, blamed for any losses even if I had performed perfectly.
On the other hand, I'm tempted to start watching soccer on the general principle that if Ann Coulter hates something, it's got to have some redeeming value.
And get poisoned? Are you mad!?

"Soccer is not a serious sport because it's co-ed!" Must be a huge coincidence all 736 players in the world cup are men. What are the odds!?*
So close, Chile. So, so close.

Tim Howard....what a beast.
Ironbite-wonder which MLS team has him?
ETA: OH HE PLAYS FOR AN ENGLISH PREMIER TEAM! BOOO!

That boy's name? Albert Einstein.
That was a good game. Tim Howard is a beast. Also, this:

Huh? Really?

Well I just learned a lot today.
I still feel the need to call it American Football, though. Instead of just Football.
And Argentina goes to the semi-finals for the first time in 24 years.
Damn. Missed the match, but saw the results on the news. 7-1. Damn.
Last time Germany trounced another country this badly, it was run by a loud guy in a Chaplin mustache.
7-1. Damn.
On the one hand, Brazil getting destroyed was hilarious to watch. On the other, this doesn't bode well for us if we even reach the finals (last time Argentina faced Germany we lost 4-0).

Is Argentina missing several key players due to fouls and injuries? No?
Ironbite-keep it that way and you have a chance.

...Why write to Coca-Cola about this?

They one of the World Cup's major sponsors, the letter is asking them to end their partnership with FIFA.
.......DO YOU NOT READ!?
.......DO YOU NOT READ!?
Do you?
There's other sponsors. So unless that letter was written to all of the sponsors (which I'm assuming is a possibility) then why single out Coca Cola, out of the sponsors?

I wouldn't be surprised if the letter was sent to all the sponsors, but Coca-Cola is being showcased here simply because of how much their reply missed the point.
