Pearce and Torres must be pretty happy. I hope Torres as gotten over choking in big matches though.

I can't for the life of me figure DMB, and I'll never forgive Clark for costing us the WC and Orozco for his Olympic red card.

Nice to see Buddle though. I don't think Bradley ever gave him a fair shake. At least Bornstein and Findley aren't there.

Honestly if we need to find a new victory cigar striker to replace Conor Casey, Robbie Rodgers isn't the worst replacement. At least he has a little pace.

Ah the memories. I'll never forget sitting at Crown & Anchor (The only place in the entire state of Nevada where the game could be viewed) and having both goals come just as I was explaining to the guy next to me that Casey is terrible.

Its worth mentioning since I just found out about it recently, but the ESPN app on the XBOX 360 is pretty awesome. I get to watch the game on the big screen without trying to hook up the laptop, and I can rewind and ff. Your internet provider needs to support ESPN 3 in order to use it, but its really well done.

I'm 99% sure all the networks will have some form of online streaming by 2018. It's already pretty clear traditional TV is going to be replaced by streaming, and in seven years I expect television will be where newspapers are today.

People say this, by I just don't see it yet. Everytime I try to view an older movie on Netflix, it's not available digitally and they want me to get the DVD. Often when I try to watch a show on Hulu, it's not available and I have to navigate through the network's site in the hopes they have the full episode. And often they'll only have stuff like episodes 1-3 then 6 and 10 or something like that. It's weird they just randomly remove episodes for lengths at a time. Then live sports, forget about it. I don't want to pay seperate subscription fees to MLB.com, NFL.com, and MLSsoccer.com. And all this comes with poorer picture quality sometimes to the point where everything stutters so much it's unwatchable, oh but the ads always go through fine. Then you got ISP bandwitdth caps and the looming threat of net neutrality issues like tiered pricing to reach certain sites and good speeds. I just fail to see these things improving enough to supplant the ease of cable or satellite anytime soon.

Speaking of FOX's soccer coverage, DirecTV users may be without it, at least for a little while:

That's because Buddle was the leading MLS goal scorer at the time, and while we hadn't seen Buddle's quality with the nats yet, Findley already had a long history of being completely useless for us.

While the "RAH RAH USA NUMBER ONE!" crowd is a bit pathetic, the amount of Italian-Americans crying over this loss is just golden. "B-b-b-but they weren't trying! Those weren't even their good players!" For people who literally have no connection to Italy aside from their ancestry, they go a long way to protect its honor over the place they actually live.

Mostly they just like buying stuff that says "Italia" on it.

Just watched the game on DVR, so stoked.

Edit: Will Ferrel is being interviewed about Casa De Mi Padre at the Mexico game on Univision. He's answering all their questions with "Chicharito."

Wait so Americans of Italian Heritage support Italy? What?

American born Mexicans-Americans do this as well. Though it's less annoying since we are actually next to Mexico and Mexican-Americans tend to stick with their own. Italian-Americans do to some some degree as well in certain parts of the country, but they don't go around speaking Italian all day and mostly they just identify with Italian culture to be cool. Well, they think it's cool. Mostly everyone else just makes fun of them with the advent of Jersey Shore.

How is the NBC announcement team? I like they got second tier US games because I can't get FSC in HD, but unfortunately since FOX no longer carries Galaxy games, I can only watch them a few times a year without Direct Kick or the website package. At least until Time Warner Cable SportsNet launches, whenever that will be.
