If my math is correct, US-Portugal got a 21.4 rating (combining ESPN and Univision) last night. Wow.
Not sure if that is counting the people watching at bars/at the watch parties in certain cities, since ratings dont take that into account as they "cant hear the ads".

I will contend that Messi is still better (despite not winning Fifa POY this year). But, Ronaldo is no question the next best. They have been, imo, over the course of at least the last 5 years, been 1 and 2.Raw Dawgin' it;1629174 wrote:I haven't really seen him play much - but when he has the ball he looks better than anyone on the field. He got one good opportunity to make a play in space and it cost us a win.

Ronaldo is definitely not 100%.
I had a nice LOL when he made that run to the box from the right side. That shot was pathetic.

I liked the Twitter post. To the effect of, "Ronaldos shot looks like that line in his head."Automatik;1629179 wrote:Ronaldo is definitely not 100%.

Mexico is fucking retarded not playing Chicarito. He's your most talented player and striker!

Ochoa is their most talented player. This will be proven when he's making Euro out the ass after this tourney.Classyposter58;1629206 wrote:Mexico is fucking retarded not playing Chicarito. He's your most talented player and striker!

Hernandez is not their best player. Not even close. Lol.
Gio is their most talented offensive force when he is playing well.

I think he has peaked for both club and country, maybe needs a change of scenery.

Classy is the only one who thinks he's Mexico's most talented player.

He used to be but he has dropped off a ton. Probably has a lot to do with the fact he's a poacher and doesn't play full time at his club.lhslep134;1629215 wrote:Classy is the only one who thinks he's Mexico's most talented player.

4 games, 8 points in the Yahoo group, I think. No scores right, but all outcomes. First day I've done that. At least days other than the very first one where there was only one match.
Assuming there's no more scoring, I would have gotten the scores for the latter two games, but both Mexico and Cameroon scored one more than I picked them to. Ingrates.

I got all games right today too but I'm sure this isn't my first day doing that lol. Only 1 correct score though fucking Cameroon scoring a goal screwed me out of getting a 2nd score correct.Heretic;1629217 wrote:4 games, 8 points in the Yahoo group, I think.

But the most important thing is I'm back in first! Saw earlier today I had dropped to 2nd

I'm not sure if my favorite part of the cycle is that it's almost always unsolicited or the unified response to it.Automatik;1629224 wrote:lol....workmanlike.

I really wish ESPN offered a way to watch a match without the announcers providing score updates for the simultaneous match. It's time they got with the DVR era.

The other score, in a lot of cases, directly impacts how they need to call their game though.Mulva;1629254 wrote:I really wish ESPN offered a way to watch a match without the announcers providing score updates for the simultaneous match. It's time they got with the DVR era.

Even then it scrolls across the bottom or is on the upper half of the screen. The best way is to watch they the uverse World Cup app on your tv and mute it.
