I'm a crazy American who loves soccer (football, futbol) and If we can all remember back when my avatar use to be the Arsenal Gunners Sheild... I enjoy watching it playing it talking about it, I love soccer.... Am i few and far between well yes and no depends about who you hang out with and such.......</p> <p>Helll I enjoy a good match and unfortuantely if the USA were to win the World Cup, I agree Justin that most people would see a blurp on ESPN and go about their business... Did you see what the Italians did when they won or Brazil? They went completly bonkers kid, nutz, ape shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, their passion for the sport is most definatly on a different level.. Furthermore I also believe that we could learn to enjoy the sport (average cat) but most won't even have the love and passion that other countries have for the beautiful game...</p> <p>Lance going for 8 is awesome, Americans kicking asss in England is bueno </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1434 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 13:57:59 +0000 Justin H 1434@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>I get what you're saying about soccer for kids. Most parents have their kids play soccer (I think) because they feel like it's safer. But, I still don't think that quite equates to the way in interpreted what you said about soccer getting love in the U.S. The way I took that was like "American's used to love soccer, but now they can't be bothered." Not like, "we love soccer for our kids, but once they get over 12 we can't be bothered."</p> <p>Roddick won, BTW, so history will be made Sunday, either Roddick finally tops Federer in a Grand Slam final, or Federer gets the record number of Grand Slam wins. </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1433 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 13:25:25 +0000 Gunslinger 1433@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>soccer gets love when your a kid im saying like most kids play soccer when there kids but then they dont always have soccer leagues for when they get older </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1432 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 12:02:12 +0000 Justin H 1432@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>"not getting the love it deserves in the u.s. anymore" when has soccer gotten any love in the US?</p> <p>Soccer is fun to play, I used to play it, I give you that. Watching it is another story, I do not enjoy watching soccer. IMO even if the US men won the world cup, it wouldn't change anything in regards to soccer's popularity in the US, and therefore I would rather see a team whose countrymen actually care be the one's to win. Even though as an American I still have to pull for them, even if I won't watch it.</p> <p>Speaking of pulling for American's in sports American's don't care about, Lance Armstrong starts his quest to dominate the rest of the world in the Tour de France again tomorrow, it's a Williams Sisters final again at Wimbledon, and Roddick v. Murray is 6-4, 4-6, 1-1 at the moment. </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1418 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 17:36:10 +0000 Gunslinger 1418@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>ya its kinda sad to see such a great world wide loved sport such as soccer not getting the love it deserves in the u.s. anymore...but thats mainly due to the fact that in the u.s. we worship a three sport only system...baseball,basketball,football....heck my high school i graduated from just added soccer as a playable sport for next year...man i wish soccer would have been here when i was in high school i used to love soccer and playing soccer when i was a kid only to be horrified my school didnt offer it </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1415 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 17:05:19 +0000 fr702 1415@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>don't count out the Dutch BigChris.....

I was suprised it took brazil so long to score and take the lead. the u.s. did show that they can hang with the top talent in the world, but the u.s. doesnt have the top talent on their team. at least the u.s. didnt give up, its like a cinderalla team in the NCAA basketball tournament. they will hang for at least half maybe more, but in the end the team with more talent should come back and win. although spain didnt do that, so I dont know how to explain that win. good job by the u.s. but I think the world cup 2010 will be between spain, italy, brazil, and maybe england. </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1412 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 16:57:08 +0000 Gunslinger 1412@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>ya i actually thought the usa was gonna win when they were up by two and then i watched a tragedy man that would have been huge if the us could have went all the way </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1410 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 16:51:35 +0000 fr702 1410@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>Gun was talking some shiiiit about how the USA lost to Brazil in the finals in South Africa 3~2 USA had the lead 2~nil and were dominated by Brazil in the 2nd half, but hey they better than usual and is unfortunate that USA lost </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1409 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 16:49:46 +0000 Gunslinger 1409@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>follow the conversation ^^^^^^^^^ lol i was following fr's soccerr comments! ^^^^^ </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1405 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 16:05:12 +0000 carls 1405@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>^^^^ ? </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1374 Tue, 30 Jun 2009 12:06:38 +0000 Gunslinger 1374@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>too bad the us choked after being up two-nil </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1368 Tue, 30 Jun 2009 00:34:38 +0000 carls 1368@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>Ya it drives me nuts to man.

With all the crazy stuff that hes gotten himself into the movie could be pretty entertaining. I'l always remeber when he came to the UFC as the guy who knocked out Tito in a street fight. You should read hughes Take on it from his book its pretty funny. Its to bad his life went the rout that it did casue I think he could have beat Franklin at any point in time, and went o to be quite the champ. Silva still would have shown up and beat him anyways just like he did at Cage Rage. </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1286 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 11:13:05 +0000 bigchris2328 1286@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>i saw that game, and the us was saved by their goalie. he made at least 6 stops on shots that should have gone in. whats next for the us? another loss to brazil. brazil was toying with the us in their first meeting last week, and still beat them 3-0. now brazil will show up serious and blow out the us 5-0 or more. imo is was the us's biggest win ever. </p> <p>back to murray, ... tito better hide!</p> <p>some people say mma fighters are dumb and have no brains, yea thats true when you have a former fighter mastermind a 92 million robbery, and have it be successful. props to murray, hopefully he doesnt try to tempt fate and do anything criminal again. </p> http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/topic/lee-murray-released-from-prison#post-1285 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 11:12:05 +0000 fr702 1285@http://forums.mmafrenzy.com/ <p>Ok well Brazil has to play South Africa today sooo there and well Brazil can lose to the US they have done it before....
