I'm torn. Would normally get up for the game, but the whole anthem BS has me wondering why I would sacrifice my sleep if they can't make the effort to respect those that made sacrifices for their freedom. I know it sounds petty, and usually don't let things like this bother me, but for some reason this one does because its on the worlds stage. Just being honest. Flame away.

Its because its the NATIONAL team. Their antics reflect poorly on the country. If it was anything other than playing for country, it would be a blip on the radar. I will not be waking up early to watch the match but I hope the USA can pull it out.
People think I'm an idiot or something, because all I do is cut lawns for a living.

If it bothers you that much, definitely don't watch.

I'll be getting up early Sunday to watch. Hoping our defense remains strong and we somehow can muster a goal or two.

Sucks that we didn't get E1. The game times for the round of 16 and 8 were around 8 or 9 pm cst. Hell I'd rather these games start at 1 am or 2 am cst.

Going to have to record and hope to not be spoiled before I watch.

Kind of a weird flex you commie *******.

I'll catch the 2nd half when I'm getting ready for my run that morning. Only team that can play that poorly to make me wake up that early is Arsenal and maybe the US men

What I don't get is that one player is in favor of transmissions, but I thought those green thumb types were all about electronic cars.

US has good energy to start. I think Morgan flubbed her chance a bit.

Not a bad effort from Rodman.

Anywhere else, besides directly at the keeper, and we are up 2-0.

Night and day so far from the group stage. Just have to piece one together in the final third. Defense continues to be strong. Tactical change was smart.

Best half I've seen this team play in a good long while. Miles better off the ball. Quicker to press on defense. Positive in attack.

Set pieces still worry me on defense, but we didn't give up any that second 20' iirc.

Need a goal to show for this effort soon.

We got the foul on the second, but even that corner was scary. Naeher was nails
