You love me too much.

Speaking of you:

Any relation?

Yea I think they figured they had no shot without Altidore so it was pretty defensive. Hopefully they get him back for Belgium but I doubt it.

Jones is pretty fast, if he isn't run down by the ref. I was laughing my ass off, when I saw that scene in slow-motion. Met him in person once, when he was playing for Schalke. Nice guy.


Argentina is a one man team but that one man could beat the US by himself. I was impressed with how Netherlands responded against Australia within 5 minutes. They're better than the entire US roster top to bottom.

Messi is indeed quite a genius. But then: If you can control him, the entire team goes down. The response of the Netherlands was good, but Robben - for all his skill - always plays quite the same. I think the "smaller" teams will have a real good shot in the upcoming round, because nobody cared for teams like Algeria and hasn't really made and analysis of their play-style.

Yea Ozil has not impressed me this World Cup and I think he is their best player. They definitely need him at his best against Brazil.

Ozil can play ingenious passes and did so in the last game at a few times. But he needs people that can turn stuff like that into goals. But for scoring, one has to rely on Muller at the moment, as it seems. The guy is a killer, as Van Gaal once put it, but he can't win every game alone. Hope Loew moves people like Schurrle / Klose in faster the next time.

Jones is a goddamn beast and reportedly faster than Robben.

To me, Robben is an underachiever. He never shows up in the big moments, as evidenced by 2010 finals. But he is a speed demon. So is Van Persie. That team is just too talented for the US I think. And yes, Messi is a genius but if a team is going to contain him, I'm not sure if the US is that team. Unless they literally play the basketball equivalent of a box and 1, and have Beasley or Jones shadow him for 90 minutes.

Muller is indeed good but I think Ozil is the best player on that team and their catalyst. His biggest flaw is that he's too unselfish. Often I see him with a great goal scoring opportunity which he ruins with an ill advised extra pass.

Hummels is probably my favorite German player. I like Mario Gomez as well.

You know what would be really excellent? Since they are going ahead and de-canonizing that which they please, Disney ought to just go ahead and purchas Into the Storm. That's all I'm saying. I'd watch the shit out of that trilogy.

Don't forget about the Crotian who outpaced even Robben the other day. At 32! 20.5 MPH. Madness! At that age.

This place is kinda overran by trolling these days, huh?

Carthage, PTforthewin, and Intrepid whenever he feels like socking.

Is there anything worse in videogames than long, unpausable cutscenes?!

Yep.

Long, unskippable cutscenes that are right before a difficult fight.

"I'LL NEVER LET YOU TAKE KAIRI'S HEART!"
"I'LL NEVER LET YOU TAKE KAIRI'S HEART!"
"I'LL NEVER LET YOU TAKE KAIRI'S HEART!"
"I'LL NEVER LET YOU TAKE KAIRI'S HEART!"
"I'LL NEVER LET YOU TAKE KAIRI'S HEART!"

That was ten years ago. I still hear the dialogue in my dreams.

That is because I whisper it in your ear while I watch you sleep, blaxie pie. 🥷

Are the posts and responses showing up late or messed up for anyone else in the threads?

Intrepid wasn't a troll, though. He just had trollish ways, which we all do at times. Other than that, Intrepid is a pretty intelligent poster especially for his age.

Carthage isn't really a troll either. Same way with Intrepid, he just has trollish ways.

Really... making socks that have similar names to me and using those socks to create threads meant to spite me is not trolling?

Or how about those times that he spammed porn everywhere?

Carthage has admitted to it and frequently makes topics for it.

Did.... they actually give kids dildo's and get them to fight with them?

Well now we all know what Carthage and PTforthewin look like...

the question is, which one is which?

To be fair those dildos could probably kill Darth Bane
