I love the offsides rule and it just makes defending an art.

Im always amazed when 4 different guys know to draw a player offsides all at the same time.

It just takes 1 guy to screw it all up and send the other teams player off to the races.

Seems like a good game between the USA and Canada. Just seeing the score and can't watch.

that's because most of the world has a case of incurable stupid.

soccer in the us gets laughed at a lot and women's soccer? of course.

but games like today are why it is such a majestic experience. amazing bit of competition from both sides. hardy applause to the canadian squad.

I didnt see it as I was at my son's hockey school all day but I followed on twitter. According to what I read, it took 12 to beat us, 11 American girls and one Norwegian ref.

At least your good looking player scored the winnter, not the manimal Wambach.

I didn't add this, and it is clearly defamatory and will be deleted by wikipedia but someone in Canada obviously didn't like the way the Viking reffed the game today.
