hell ya.....sounds like a plan

2/10/2006 12:24:30 PM

i can't believe they gonna play on the baseball field..

different type of the soccor ball from the one World Cup will use.

2/10/2006 12:25:06 PM

should be interesting because japan is in the world cup and im sure they have players that are trying to make the squad too so hopefully everyone will play hard and itll be a better game than norway was.

2/10/2006 12:41:18 PM

whats the spread?

2/10/2006 12:50:12 PM

Japan is 15 in the FIFA world rankings. We're 7. But again this doesnt really matter since we wont have our real team playing, especially all the players that are in europe.

2/10/2006 12:54:37 PM

guess I should start watching... we're going to Germany during the WC this summer.

2/10/2006 12:54:46 PM

for only 2g's you can go to a game.

2/10/2006 1:34:19 PM

if you go through ebay, possibly... but going to a game isn't the foundation of our trip.

We're going to apply for tickets on this next round of allocations, if we don't get any, oh well.

ill be flipping b/w this, the opening ceremonies, and friday night standup on Comedy Central wow, enough good stuff on tv to make me stay home

2/10/2006 4:09:52 PM

JAPAN DEFENDERS (9): Akira Kaji, Yuichi Komano, Tsuneyasu Miyamoto, Teruyuki Moniwa, Shinji Murai, Yuji Nakazawa, Makoto Tanaka, Keisuke Tsuboi, Alessandro Santos

This is one of those cases where he'll never make his real home squad, but since his grandfather (or someone) was Japanese he can play for them. Same for the white dude who plays in the Nationwide and is the starting winger for Trinidad.

2/10/2006 5:40:14 PM

wait, so if hes good enough for japan, but not his home, then where's he from? spain?

i thought japan was usually pretty good (at least on par w/ the us).

2/10/2006 5:44:28 PM

Where's the game being played?

2/10/2006 6:27:33 PM

^ San Francisco Giants' park, whatever it's called.

2/10/2006 10:33:24 PM

^^^He's actually from Brazil. Japan is good yes, but they're no Brasil.

SBC Park is where the Giants play. Whatever SBC means.

sbc is the phone company out here (southwestern bell corp, maybe?) -- used to be pacbell in cali

USA dominated the first half, then i fell asleep during halftime and i woke up to see japan scoring their second goal.....good thing we still pulled out the win. the first 2 US goals were both really sweet plays.
