mgjetman Icon : (Yesterday, 01:39 PM) Sanch owns the #1 blooper of all time with that butt fumble also and to make matters worse he threw it right to a friggin Pat...
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Yesterday, 01:53 PM) buttfumble on thanksgiving was the low point of his career
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 01:55 PM) Teammates talking shut about Sanchez
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 02:11 PM) In case you haven't heard, because why would anyone report on the Giants, Nicks is also holding out
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 02:11 PM) That makes both Cruz and Nicks.
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 02:11 PM) But who cares, Sanchez threw 3 "interceptions"!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 02:59 PM) ?
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 02:59 PM) why would we give a f*** about the Giants?
santana Icon : (Yesterday, 03:04 PM) gg03 jimmies are riled
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 03:21 PM) You're not in NY. All the backpages are focused on Sanchez
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 03:21 PM) None of the NY media even mention Cruz or Nicks
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Yesterday, 03:40 PM) nicks isn't holding out. he's injured still and taking it easy. cruz is holding out. why it isn't a big ordeal IDK. it would be for us
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 04:02 PM) maybe because theyre not that far off.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 04:02 PM) Cruz wants to return back, they'll figure it out.
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Yesterday, 04:41 PM) 3 mil a year off or 30% less then cruz wants. tahst alot of money to be off
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Yesterday, 04:41 PM) cruz doens't want to leave NY cause teh extra money he'll get in endorsements plus he knows taht they can RFA him this year and then Franchise next year so he might not be able to get a LTD for 3 years
Mr_Jet Icon : (Yesterday, 05:21 PM) Clemens11/Tebow15 (soon to be Smith7) said if we had just drafted Crabtree and Nicks and kept Clemens, we'd be good.
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 06:44 PM) No, he can't be Smith7
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 06:44 PM) his name is reserved for garbage QBs, we don't want Geno to be bad
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 06:44 PM) He can be McElroy14
extmenace Icon : (Yesterday, 06:51 PM) we're taking bridgewater next year with the number 1 pick and treating geno like a jimmy clausen.
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 06:53 PM) What makes Bridgewater better than Geno?
HurricaneJet32 Icon : (Yesterday, 07:12 PM) everything
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 07:56 PM) ^
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 08:16 PM) college players always get hyped up before the draft process, just wondering what makes him so much better.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 08:19 PM) Stronger arm, plays in a pro system, better throwing motion, better athlete
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 08:19 PM) there's probably nothing Geno does right now that's better than what Teddy does
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 10:25 PM) Wouldn't it be funny with Bridgewater ends up having the type of season Barkley had?
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 07:48 AM) better athlete but never runs as well
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 07:48 AM) stronger arm but rarely throws deep
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 07:48 AM) I am trying to find this article, but Bridgewater had about the least amount of 40+ throws in college football
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 07:49 AM) I wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't viewed as highly next year. College players always get hyped up a year before the draft process. People change their opinions quickly.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 07:56 AM) I'll put a good amount of money that Bridgewater is still highly regarded coming out next year.
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:00 AM) ok I found the chart
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:00 AM) Bridgewater had 0% of his passes go 40+ yards in college
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:02 AM) he could be, I'll wait though
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:02 AM) I doubt Smith will be as bad as Clausen anyways
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:03 AM) I remember watching Clausen in a NFL game and the guy couldn't even throw a spiral.
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:03 AM) Geno has been impressing teammates with how well he can spin the ball and sling it.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 08:31 AM) I hope Geno turns out to be a f***ing monster
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Today, 10:52 AM) andrew luck was hyped up for like 3 years before he entered teh draft
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 11:34 AM) tehhhh
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 11:37 AM) it wasn't for 3 years and Andrew Luck is the best QB prospect to come out in years. Teddy Bridgewater most likely isn't Luck or RGIII
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 11:40 AM) I've only seen Bridgewater play once. That was against Florida, I actually watched that game.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 12:12 PM) Teddy will be a good NFL QB I think

Of course I will be watching but my interest will dwindle once the quarter finals are over, probably earlier. I don't see how England can be higher in the odds to win than Holland, Italy, France, Spain and Portugal. Id put England on a par with the Czech Republic. To win the World Cup you need a potent goalscorer - Michael Owen, Peter Crouch and Theo Walcott don't represent that as Owen is just coming off an injury, Crouch was hardly prolific in the Premiership and Walcott has played a grand total of 0 minutes in the Premiership.
Rooney's injury was damaging but with him I doubt England would go much further than the QF's where Brazil are a likely opponent because England score few goals in tournaments.
My opinion of the US is they are a dark horse and if they can get through their group and knock out either Italy or Czech Republic they could have a chance of doing something unlikely but very special. Sadly I think the US has a better chance of winning than England.

HAHAHAHA, England and Italy have better odds to go the distance than the US and the Czechs? Thats a joke. Italy is NOT the tops in the group, Both the CR and the USA are better than the Italians.

Italy have good goalscorers that are underrated like Totti, Inzaghi and Doni plus Buffon in goal. Id say they are certain to go through from the US group unless they underperform - as they did at Euro 2004. I think the US may sneak through if they can get wins against Ghana and Czech Republic and perhaps a draw with Italy. The US group will be the most interesing this year along with Holland's group.

Take it from me England are overrated. They will do nothing without Rooney as I don't see a Rooney-less England outscoring teams like Brazil, Spain, Italy and Argentina - all teams with multiple scoring threats. If England get past the quarter finals I will be very shocked.

Over here the idea of England doing well is if they win out, the media have drilled it in that England are bound to win the World Cup this year and that this is our year. Considering the media's expectations, to do well, England need to win it but I agree they won't keep up with the said teams.

USA - Dark Horse
Korea - Dark Horse
France - Looking to bounce back form the last Cup performance
England - Home field gives you some mommentum, look at Korea last time.

Favorable mentions - Italy, Czech Republic

Lucky you, I should have used one of my sick days to watch this but instead I just went into the teacher's lounge for the first 45 minutes and let my class watch the rest on the monitor.

I enjoyed Germany v Costa Rica - it was a good game with two good German goals for their first and fourth. Poland v Ecaudor was ok too and I thought Ecuador played surprisingly well.
I like tomorrow's matchups and think Argentina v Ivory Coast will be an exciting match. Hopefully England can start well too but Paraguay will be tough.
Depending on my exams next week I'll try and catch the USA's game. I think they have a chance against the Czechs and it should be close.

You were right about England winning, but no way was it convincing. Paraguay's defence was abysmal in the first half and England could only get one goal - from an own goal - which says a lot really about England's hopes of winning.
I agree with Sweden winning, the game is going on as I write but Im not watching, but I think Ivory Coast have a chance - they have some good strikers like Drogba and Kalou whilst Kolo Toure is a very good defender. Still I see Agrentina edging it.

Two good Czech goals are the difference right now, other than that I think the US controlled the game so far although they haven't been great in front of goal. Claudio Reyna has controlled the midfield IMO and is playing great. Beasley has been let down by a poor first touch which hasn't helped though.
