so the U.S. lost yesterday and i'm still in mourning w/mourning sickness and feel like a maverick who's been alonzo mourninged. we watched both loses @ the globe. if i still believed that my fandom had some influence on sports, i'd call that place bad luck. they got screwed on calls. donovan and mcbride played poorly. arena made sketchy calls ( Read more... )
