USA vs France...being played now

[Orangeyes]

Don't read if you don't want to know what is happening. My paper lists the game as being aired at 4 AM

The three cable channels that are showing the games don't list the game for today.

What?

Anyone know why Hop is not on the bench? Is it a case of a certain #of assistants are allowed on the bench? Has he been on the bench for other games?

Not easy to find. It's on the NBC sports network. Not sure why they wouldn't show it on regular NBC but I guess that's reserved for tape delayed stuff.

The Post Standard listed the game as being at 4 AM (no date) with no info on what channel it would be on. Nice job!!

Found it on Ch 55 low def

It was common knowledge that the game was starting at 9:30 am Eastern time, but I guess it's possible that the Post Standard didn't know which channel it was going to be shown on.

I know you are joking, but France is considered the 3rd best team at the games. I thought Team USA looked pretty good and the next couple games could be real ugly. Anyone think JB looked uncomfortable hugging Queen Michelle.

France is probably considered the 5th or 6th best team...

Actually if you look at all of the odds, Spain is the 2nd favorite and France and Argentina are tied for the 3rd favorite.

That's mainly because our jerseys don't say "Germany" on the front.

Pretty sure that he was only there for the exhibition games, he is now back here recruiting.

Without their help, we almost certainly do not win the American Revolution.

And don't get me started on where we'd be without their fries and toast.

They are still there, just saw Mikey in the stands and called him a scouter I think. But is not allowed on the bench I guess.
