  1. Really funny Bud Light commercial on Telemundo in the Dilly Dilly wardrobe, but instead...

    A knight brings a 6-pack of Bud Light to a sorceress who looks into a crystal ball and starts rambling about what she sees in the ball. I wasn't paying much attention, but it was something about how "Every 4 years..... Bud Light..." and then the sorceress asks him in English:

    Sorceress: "Did you understand?"

    Knight: "Yeah... something about 'Bud Light'."   😂

    ...me muero!

  2. I feel like Bruce Arena could watch this match and still not understand that tournaments are a young man's game. 

    Even Germany's best players except for Neuer & Kroos, were their young guys. Kimmich & Brandt seemed to be the only threats, the rest of the team played kind of like ass.

  3. This is JFF and the ags beating Bama in Alabama.

    Mexico beating Germany in Europe is nuts.

    By the tears on Chicharito's face, Mexico might have blown their wad right there. I will say that Mexico deserved the win and they haven't played like this since they crushed the USMNT in a Gold Cup like 4-0 many moons ago.

  4. Late in the game and a team is getting chippy and fouling like bitches...

    ...who would have thought that the team would be Germany? And not Mexico?

    This is bizarro world.

  5. 1) Germany had someone else back besides the CDs... and he could keep up with the guy on the break.

    2) Layún still has that sky shot DOWN!

    3) Germany is going to put in their tall Spaniard for corner kicks and crosses into the box.

    Can’t be any slower than boateng

    I just realized that I've been spelling his name incorrectly this entire time.

    I'll change that for game 2.

  7. Did Mexico just replace their LEFT WINGER with a SITRIKER?

    Interesting tactics.

    That was Germany's shot. Mexico made about 4 bad defensive moves, then give up the corner kick... and Werner was actually offsides, because he'd moved offsides before the ball was flicked on.

    Dangerous moment for Mexico.

  8. Another dive by Kimmich, but this one was rewarded, but in general, this ref has been great.

    Layún continues to kick sky balls, but in this case, it was needed.

    Mexico blows yet another fast break. 

    I was not expecting a match nearly this exciting. And although I knew that Hummels & Boatang were old and slow, I didn't expect them to look quite this bad. I have a feeling that Bayern is going to watch this match and start looking to buy CBs.

    German needs a burst of youthful energy, they should be much better when they bring Leroy Sane off the bench in the second ha... oh wait.

    Yeah, fuck that shit about him not yet fitting into the system. They need energy right now, and he could bring it. 


    They can just put in Julian Brandt. It's not like he is slow just because he isn't Sane.


    Also, Kimmich always plays as a winger RB, so the fact that he is playing his normal position isn't really that surprising.

    that free kick was going in if it hadnt been deflected

    I don't think that the kick was going in, but I think that it would have bounced down hard in front of the goal and then been a problem with a high bounce after that with some tall German coming in for the header.


    After watching that free kick's replay from behind the ball on the halftime show, I now think that the ball was going to go in.

    Nice save by Ochoa.

     

    PS- Walmart Commercial: I love how all of the people have typical "Latin coloring" from the various countries- Mexico, Argentina, maybe Colombia in the longer version... and then they get to Brazil (in the longer version) and it is a tall, slim-hipped Blonde lady who looks to be of Central/Northern European descent (possibly far north Italy) and she and all of her friends are white as can be.

    Soooooo Miami. Brazilians with money coming to Miami to escape the craziness of daily life in Brazil. (Insert nearly every other Latin American country if you'd like, but the Brazilian one is funny.)

    Germany's CDs are old and slow. Hummels & Boatang are getting beat with regularity.

    This could soon be a tie ball game.

    Ref ain’t fronting no games. 


    I would be happy if this ref called every match in the World Cup.

    This guy calls it like it should be called. Not taking that Ozil flop either.

    oh my god.... why didnt he take a shot????

    He was too far over the ball. He couldn't get it out in front of him to kick it.

    They called a BAD THROW IN!!!!!

    Amazing!

  15. Refreshing to see the ref not take falling down and grabbing the ball shit.

    This ref has balls. Just like that PK awarded to Croatia yesterday after their striker was tackled, I think that calling shit actually appeals to fans and casual fans alike.
