The Swamp

Good luck!

Gotta give Tahiti props. They're playing to win.

It should be 3-0, but Torres has missed two easy passes to a wide-open David Villa.

And now it's 2-0 on a David Silva goal in the 32nd minute.

Fernando Torres accidentally stepped on the Tahitian goalie's hand. Ouch. I bet that hurt a lot.

1-0 Spain in the 13th minute (Torres, 5th minute).

One could argue Tahiti could have a penalty kick, but the Tahitian player went down kind of easy.

The Tahitian players all gave their Spanish counterparts a shell necklace as they shook hands. Pretty damn cool.

I'd take Tahiti and +8.

That name sounds familiar. I might've met her at NEXPO once.

Anyone I know?

Read on Twitter that Aaron Hernandez drove away from his house in an SUV, which prompted the following tweet from @celebrityhottub:

Sounds like you need to change your username from testy boxcar to sexy boxcar!

I agree with both of you. But I will say Jones impressed me when I saw him play in Cleveland. He was all over the field. Sometimes his pressing causes him to get out of position, and that's when he gets into trouble and commits the dumb fouls that lead to yellow cards. But I don't think he would be ...

I came across this this morning. It's the Sopranos intro if it were shot in Liverpool. It's brilliant.

Agreed, and I'm pleased to see the US going for the second goal.

Dammit Klinsmann, why the fuck is Jones still on the field?

A rather chippy first 15 minutes. And no surprise that Jermane Jones already has a yellow to his name. The US has had some good chances already ... Now they just need to convert.

Those teams haven't had players suspended for PEDs?

I'm grasping at straws. Maybe that's it. Those teams use straws for their water bottles!

(OK, I'll go away now.)

At first viewing I thought the guy broke his neck. That was some serious whiplash.

They all employed a certain relief pitcher, but I forget his name. It isn't Darren Oliver.

A couple of Blackpool notes: 1. Barry Ferguson has signed a new one-year deal with a team option for a second year. 2. Youngsters Adam Dodd and Tom Barkhuizen have signed new contracts, too. Barkhuizen has been on loan spells the last two years but might see some playing time with the Seasiders this...

Yes! They scored! And it was a very well taken goal.

ETA: Their goal celebration was FANTASTIC.

Most likely, but I'd love to see Tahiti at least score in each of their games.

Great goal, but the entry pass to Nagbe was pretty damn impressive, too.

In case you're wondering what's up with the flag sticks:

1. I set my beard trimmer to the lowest setting and went to work, and that seemed to be fine. Neither nurse nor doc commented about my stylings. 2. My wife drove me. I had a local, too. I don't think I would've enjoyed driving home because it was very sensitive, even though there was almost no pain....

Way too big. You're so far away from the action. Even at the top of the lower levels you're far removed.

Bingo.

Can't wait until September to head to Columbus for the above mentioned qualifier. The match is not at The Horseshoe, is it? Or the Crew home ground? tOSU stadium would be pretty cool, and easier to get tickets. I've been to a soccer match at the Shoe. It's a horrible place to watch soccer. Yes, the...

The Seattle crowd was amazing last night. They should be very proud of how they represented the city and its fan base. I loved the chants in the second half, especially the long, drawn out USA chants.

Boy, did the U.S. get fucked hard by the ref.

No matter. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL, Altidore!

Wow, Mexico. You looked like shit tonight. Keep it up!

I don't know what Bryan Ruiz was complaining about. Those were bottles, not bags of piss. What a pussy.

My best friend is coming over for the game. Wish another qualifier was going to be in Columbus so I could go The Sept. 10 qualifier vs. Mexico is in Columbus. I'm trying to get tickets for that game. I didn't know that. I need to get on the ball for tickets Tickets aren't for sale yet. Atta boy, Ce...

Both the Mexico and USA games are on ESPN. Gotta say it's weird seeing ESPN carrying Mexico's qualifiers. Last Friday, I was visiting a friend, and he doesn't have BeIn Sports, so we couldn't watch the US-Jamaica game. But we could watch the Mexico-Panama game broadcast in Spanish on Telemundo. Beca...

The Sept. 10 qualifier vs. Mexico is in Columbus. I'm trying to get tickets for that game.

Anyone going to watch USMNT vs. Panama tonight? I'm going to try to stay awake for the whole thing, but we'll see if that happens. No Jermaine Jones (injury) or Graham Zusi (yellow card suspension) tonight, and there's all sorts of speculation on the starting line up. Also will be interesting to see...

For the ages.
