Red Card

Gotta be. De Rossi had to do it on purpose. He got caught, and the Italians will have to play with a man down.

It's a tie score, we have an extra man. Of course, the lack of a man will probably help the Italians focus. It certainly didn't matter against Brazil in the Round of 16 in 94.

And McBride, after sitting and getting stitched up for a bit, is back in the game.

Meanwhile, Rice is up 1-0 against UGA in the World Series.

Totti out for Gattuso? Interesting sub. Whew, and we get a lucky offsides call to save a nice shot.

Clint Dempsey is playing well. He is definitely bringing some needed confidence and aggressiveness.
