Any Soccer fans around here?

Soccer is like Baseball for me.

If I'm just listening to it then it's entertaining enough on it's own, but it's dreadfully dull to actually watch.

I'll ! I'm a big soccer fan I'll Watch all the matchs I can !

Portugal is laying a total egg against Germany in its opening match...

Oh well, at least I have two teams to cheer for. USA later today. Go USA!

As far as being a soccer fan, I'm a moderate fan, probably almost akin to Hukos. I do watch the World Cup, but I don't watch Major League Soccer (the US's top professional league). When I'm visiting my family members who get the Portuguese league games (the only league I almost-sort-of follow), I'll often watch games with them.

Yeah Portugal was very week this afternoon (unfortunately I wasn't able to Watch all) but France was great ! 3-0 vs Honduras : not the tougher team but a very "tough" team (in an agressive manner ) and at this moment I'm watching at Iran Vs Nigeria and the match is.. awful for the moment !
And in more than 2 hours I'll Watch USA versus Ghana !

I'm a fairly big soccer myself. I'm a really big fan of Major League Soccer as well as Sporting Kansas City, as well as Bayern Munich of the Bundesliga in Germany.

Saying that, I wasn't that big of a fan of international soccer, but this years World Cup has been mostly a blast. I haven't been able to follow it as closely as I would like thanks to work, but I will be following the US, Germany, and the other CONCACAF teams (Mexico, Costa Rica, Honduras).

France versus Switzerland this evening ! Go France !

France SERIOUSLY put a beating on the Swiss. Aside from Germany and the Netherlands, they're looking fairly good thus far.

Also happy for Costa Rica. They represented CONCACAF well!

Yeah, the match against switzerland/Swiss/Suisse was great ! What a great match for our team but it's only the beginning ! Yeah Germany and netherlands are great too but there is a lot of american continent team that are great too ! Brazil and Argentina seems to have many problems bt they are still there !

And congrats for Costa Rica ! What a match Vs Italy !

Saw a little bit on the news this afternoon about the match between Brazil and I think it was Chili (not sure about that). Any way it looked like a good one. Congrats to Brazil for coming out ahead. Looking forward to Tuesday when the USA plays again.

Edit: Well, the USA lost their match on Tuesday, but well done to them anyway. Congrats to the winners of the match, and now looking ahead to see what happens next.
