USA - Guatemala World Cup qualifier on now (first half spoiler)
Edited on Wed Mar-30-05 09:07 PM by southlandshari
Any DU soccer fans out there? Score at halftime - USA 1, Guatemala 0 at halftime of the World Cup qualifying match in Birmingham, Ala. tonight. The action is on ESPN2, if anyone is interested. Great game so far! More discussion here:

1. Self-kick
No soccer fans out there? This is the Lounge, right? Where the cool kids hang out?

Wayyyyy back when I was in high school, the coolest kids (NOT to be confused with the most "popular", mind you) could be found in one or more of the following places:

Drama club, German club, journalism class, or the soccer team. Was my experience that unique?

3. Dude! NO! [R]
You should never post results in the subject line. Some people record the game to watch later.

I'm following it by matchtracker, BTW. Will Eddie Johnson ever fail to score?

4. No, no, no - not the final score!
Sorry for the spoiler, anyway. I posted this just after the US scored a goal less than halfway into the first half. But thanks for the reminder - I'll be more careful next time!

5. Title changed
To omit the score and indicate a score spoiler in advance. There was still time for me to edit after reading your reply. Thanks again for the heads-up, and sorry I didn't think about those who might be taping the match for later viewing!

6. Cool, thanks.
I've been on both sides of that...both messing it up for someone else and having it screwed up for me. :thumbsup:

2. Guatemala..
if they start winning, we'll send the death squad to their team bench for a little "reminder".
