U.S.(mens) VS. Panama

The United States will be playing Panama this Saturday @ 2:00 P.M. This is a quarterfinal match in the Gold Cup, so now they have to win. Ummm the US is the only undefeated team and had three games where their opponent did not score. Now that I have summed up all that patootie we will get to what I think.

I think that they will have a tough game against Panama. But I don't think that they can't win this game. I think the game will be a tie until second half where the US will score the first goal. I think this game will wind up being 2-1 US. But you never know.

Now I'm going to talk about Landon Donovan, who no one seems to like. I am going to admit that no matter how many times I have poked fun at "Landy Cakes", I kind of like the guy. Of course that is if his mouth is shut and he's playing soccer. I swear sometimes that man can say the stupidest things. Like him not wanting to play in COPA America, Why the fridge not? Other than that I really wanted an excuse to show this picture of Landon:



Every time I see this picture on Wikipedia I laugh because he just looks so gay here. That pose is priceless. Oh and by the way Landy is now three goals away from being first on the USA's all-time scoring chart. So lets see if he gets another goal in the game against Panama.

I am hoping to see Twellman start this game. I really really like Twellman. He knows how to score. I think he has made 7 goals in this MLS season. I hope he wins the Golden Boot that is if he can beat Eddie Johnson who has 9 goals right now.

I am really excited for this game and I hope the US wins, then again I know they will so no worries. And if I am wrong and they lose oh well, hopefully they will do better in COPA America.

And thank god this game is on "regular TV" or I would probably never get to see it. Sure it's in Spanish and whenever my Mom hears it she bitches at me but I say fridge her (oooo teen angst).
