The US indeed lost to Austria 2-1 to put them out of the U-20 World Cup at the QF stage. Weeping, sadness, melancholy, tristeza... all that & a bag of morose, stale chips.

Krikey Poo Deux!
Now Ussoccer.com's MatchTracker & site is down... WTF?! Stupid techmology.
Anyway, last I saw the US was down 2-1 to Austria in the 109 minute... so who fucking knows, they probably lost... I'll check in short while... fuckers.
Oh & Arsenal started their pre-season shcedule today beating fellow London club, Barnet, 2-0 on goals by Adebayor & youngster Nacer Barazite.

Krikey Poo!
Galavision didn't have the US U-20's QF match vs. Austria like I thought! Poopola! So I have to follow the match on USsoccer.com's MatchTracker. Exiting shit to watch text scroll! Woo little icons make it fancy! Yeeeeaaaaaaaaah.
Halftime US & Austria are all square- 1-1. Altidore put the US in front on a header off a cross from Adu & Austria tied it just before the half on a ricocheted shot from a Kraut Lite naturalised African. Strange days indeed! Most peculiar, Momma.
So in the pissy mood w/o being able to see the match, other stuff:
What's the Phillipines have to do with Palestine?
The truth about a t-shirt icon. What's that in the article? Che Guevara hated blacks & gays? Tell that to the dictator chic t-shirt wearers on college campii next time you see one of their ignorant asses with his likeness on a shirt that hasn't been washed in 2 weeks. Wow & the execution of minors? But it was for the people! Viva la revolucion! Viva la Cuba! Muerte a publica non gustan Castro lo!
Seriously, Castro & Guevara suck major balls. If Cuban health care & Cuba in general is so fcking great, why do Cubans risk shark infested waters year in & year out to defect to the US & why do Cuban athletes defect a lot of times when they play in the US? Any logical answers, Mr. Glover? Belafonte? Bueller?
And finally... Yasser Arafat dying of AIDS? And possibly a bisexual pedophile? Didn't know there was a PLO branch of NAMBLA! Bwaha! BTW, Abu Ammar is Yasser Arafat's real name so don't get confused when reading the article. He changed his name to Yasser Arafat when he was a student in Egypt so as to make his own mark out form under his uncle's (or was it his father?) shadow who was one of the Mufti's that ran an Arab Nazi SS corp & was a close ally to Hitler & is alledged to be one of the key proponents & suggestors in finalizing Hitler 's "Final Soultion of the Jewish Problem."

Day Late & A Dollar Short Sports Report: USA 2-1 Over Uruguay In The U-20 World Cup
They looked iffy doing it but the US U-20 soccer team advanced to the U-20 World Cup Quarterfinals on Tuesday night with a hard fought 2-1 win over poor sports, Uruguay.
The US was outplayed overall in my opinion & looked pretty shaky at the back at times & the Uruguayans were very clever with "drawing fouls," read as "leaving your foot low & then over exaggerating the body spasm with quick leg lift to make sure the ref saw the hideous, blatant bone-crunching tackle. Oh yes, don't forget to grab alleged broken body party with one hand grab your head with the other & writhe. Writhe, Uruguay! Ohhhhhh the pain! Fuckers.
And of course there was the obligatory harassing & yelling at the referee for every single call that went against the Uruguayans. South American teams are so piss poor at sportsmanship. There was also the stamping of Josimar Altidore's foot by a Uruguayan before a free kick that went unnoticed by the ref & 2 linesmen, the elbow thrown to Danny Szetela's head by a Uruguayan strike. Thankfully it only grazed him, but the intent was there & it was done after an action that did not merit a retaliation such as that- some trash talking & the normal jostling that goes on during a set piece in the box.
And for the Uruguayans' coup de grace there was the pushing & shoving altercation between the 2 teams after the final whistle done b/c well, frankly, the Uruguayans like many South American teams (& Mexico) can't ever lose a game, especially to the U.S. w/o feeling aggrieved or with their honor hurt, so in their poor sportsmanship they try to incite a brawl or antagonize the winning team. They're such fuckers. The Argentinian World Cup team of 1990 comes to mind when I see things like this. That team was the biggest bunch of whiny-assed sore losers ever. This Uruguayan youth team wasn't far off of from them.
Anyway, the U.S. didn't look particularly good in this match. I'm not impressed with Freddy Adu at all. He tends to stand around too much for my liking when he could make darting runs on give & gos. Frankly, I more impressed with Josimar Altidore's game.
US goals were an own goal by a Uruguayan future llama herder & Michael Bradley in extra time. The Uruguayan goal was scored by some maté sipping crybaby.
Highlights:
Clip of the altercation with different announcers. Listen to the announcer- "Uruguay are traditionally very, very poor losers..." See, I'm not just a bigot, my stereotyping is warranted:
Remind them one more time what the score was, Michael Bradley! 2-1, Uruguay! Eat a Dick!
