We're not just pieces of meat, damn you!

Yes, who isn't scared of the Hippy-looking vampire?

Imagine the panic and dispair as entire cultures are destroyed by your greedy lust for yoghurt. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I try to stay away from the major ones, I mean, look at all the fuss Atlantis disappearing caused

This sums up the arguement against soccer in the US http://youtube.com/watch?v=D-E6weZIdG8&search=simpso

believe it or not, soccer is the most popular sport in the US among children. unfortunately, it has never translated well to a spectator sport for adults. it's just not fast enough for the average joe watching the tube. of course, hockey is tooo fast for the average joe watching the tube... go figure. taks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Some people say that, but I'm not in the camp that says hockey is too fast. It has the same "problems" as soccer in that it is generally alot of back and forth with low scores. There are less "spectacular" plays than you would see in a Basketball or Football game. Hence, it translates to less stars/famous players than in the other sports. Yet, other than being engrained in American culture, I can't explain baseball very well.

wasn't the added combat animations as levels go up in k2?

Hey, nobody said Sweden couldn't field a American Football team. As is, we consider your lack of preticipation a forfeit. I REALLY REALLY hope that MLS starts calling their championship a "world series" PS Lance Armstrong is retired nowadays. Wonder if he plays soccer.....

eh, not out of the turn-y yet

It's a growing sport, sure, but it's still a 2nd tier one at best in the states. It's kind of that olympic sport no one cares anything about unless someone in it is playing for the gold and then it would get attention. Which, as you might guess, would put the sport in a catch-22. Hard to get better when your essentially getting B level athletes. EDIT: case in point, the US is playing a world cup match and the top sports story of the day is easily that a Quarterback got hurt in a motorcycle accident....in the off season

...or football americana...or baseball.....or hockey...or generally doing anything but soccer/football. eh, I know and football/soccer isn't exactly a sport I particularly care a ton about, still, I'm watching a whole football game. That says something I suppose. ....o, and the prediction in my sig technically can still happen "

We lose, we knock one of your stars out of the game, good ole' US

Yeah, just found it on ESPN2, thanks can't wait to see the clever anti-US signs

anyone know when the game starts, say, East Coast time? Or, better yet, Chi-town time?

I buy yogurt that has "live cultures" and I love sleeping too much to be bothered by this

They have alot of sheep....and every animal there but the sheep is highly poisonous True Story

In hindsight, maybe he isn't the best person to do that

You could cheer for the US! Imagine all the people you'll piss off!

Actually, I'd say if god is helping anyone, it is definately the foolish Remember a few years back when Bush almost choked all alone in his office.....on a pretzel?

this thread had to go and get all wordy whatever happened to "my console is better than your console" trash talk?

GIs at Ishaqi cleared; Haditha probe open

Actually it wasn't. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The Humanity......

that paint game was an ign april fools joke

Yes The closest thing to a "spy" game I've played is prolly Beyond Good and Evil. Only game I can think of that has stealth and gathering of info via stealth. Tho she is a reporter. Never played Splinter Cell tho.

Played a MGS? It's a stealth game... running in with guns blazing only gets you killed. The only time you are forced to kill is during Boss fights... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep, but stealth doesn't = spying your not "spying" you are infiltrating and then killing. Hence a commando, not a spy. ...not the Bond is a spy in that sense either, but at least he isn't in fatigues and face paint

Isn't Snake like a commando or something. There isn't so much "spying" as "finding and killing your target without being seen too much" going on.
