The US can advance with a loss by 1 or 2 even if Portugal wins by 1 or 2. Portugal's GD is awful. Ghanas is not.

Yes but the original post said " Good News. Portugal scored on an OG" as if an own goal has somehow invalidated it

As I've said before, I believe the US will win a World Cup before the much prophecised (and seemingly delayed) African breakthrough, but that doesn't mean that they're going to win of course. T

I'm sure that's what America would like to think, and I'm equally sure there's some currency in it, but by the same logic think yourself lucky that India has never taken to baseball (3 times America's

After the 2010 WC, I predicted that it would be Germany and Brazil in the finals of the 2014 WC. I haven't seen anything to make me think otherwise. FWIW, here are the groups. We definitely have the m

The German goalie has been left to patrol a lot of space in the backfield. There's room for the Americans to exploit if they can mount some sort of attack.

Why does Ian Darke pronounce DeAndre Yedlin weirdly? Lol, is Yedlin foreign or something?

I understand the sentiment, and its laudible, but play the percentages, but play the percentages

The USA deserve to go through, and frankly were the better team than Portugal anyway (despite what the British pundits in the studio would have you believe)

Ian Darke is funny. Cloud cuckoo land. Intellectual on the pitch.

All those prognosticators who said we'd never make it out of the group. NYAH. SUCK IT.

Or Algeria beats Russia and Belgium loses. That would be amazing, but probably not happening.

      Day 2: played 18. Driving was decent to good. Approach play was meh. Short game meh, and putting solid. Added up to an 81. Needed more tap in pars and more birdie chances.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 8 (28 Jun 26) - Worked with face position at address and overall setup - open/neutral/closed - and setting up for resulting shot shapes - using 8i and hard foam balls.  It was abbreviated as the thunder began to rumble. Got in about 20 swings before calling it.

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
