PrintThe Reds are winning handily up 7-1 so far in the 6th. The big news is that Willy Taveras has 2 hits and looks like he may be pulling out of the nosedive he's been in for the past month or so.
Oh yeah, and the US is up 2 - nil on the Macarenas.

I was just about to comment on this...
is the stopwatch some sort of modern innovation that FIFA resists?
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
The clock never stops,
the ref just keeps track of how much time is spoiled with substitutions, long layoffs, time wasters, etc. It’s not like they go past 90 min. because the ref forgot to call time.
He sits alone...Reds are not home.

Brazil's a great team
and the US team that came out in the 2nd half wasn’t the same one that started. Uninspired. They needed to sub defensive players much, much earlier than they did. By the time they made tactical adjustments, it was tied. That’s the inexcusable part.

I was with you too, screaming that Bradley needed to make a sub
Then I thought about who all was on the bench and realized that I didn’t trust a single one of them. I might have liked Torres or Adu to be able to possess the ball a little better, but they haven’t played in ages. Coming on in a final against Brazil is not the optimal situation. I felt resigned when Bornstein and Kljestan came on, and threatened to leave the bar if Conor Casey saw the pitch (I stuck around like a hypocrite). Basically, I only would have trusted Feilhaber off the bench if Bradley had been the starter. We were gassed, but there was no good substitute option. Contrast that to Brazil who brought in Elano, who hit the corner kick that led to the third goal. It’s nice to have depth.
That said, the boys played great. It hurts to lose the game, but they didn’t choke it away.

I missed some of teh game and part of the box score confused me. How did JV score two runs if he was 1-4? I saw him get a single that he didn’t score on and he was walked once. Was he hit by a pitch?
