Now my second favorite team in the WC is whoever is playing against Argentina.

No regrets rooting for a draw yesterday. Take care of business for 30 more seconds and we are on our way to winning this group.

Of course. Why else would I cheer for them?

I bet your great great great grandma is from Argentina

My great great grandfather's best friend's neighbor was from Argentina and handed down a shirt to us. The connection is strong.

It's so irrational to think that who we were rooting for influenced the outcome, but we all do it.
I go back to past games that I was rooting for a certain team to win and now looking back think that was a mistake and blame myself for the result. Like the Patriots/Rams Super Bowl or times when I rooted for a one seed to hold off a 16 seed in a close game because of my stupid bracket.

I'm not saying that it influenced the game. I just think that their stupidity for thinking we would breeze through Portugal and Germany should be pointed out

I agree.
Plus, they were very rude about it.
"That's a pussy way of thinking."
"It's unamerican to need to depend on another team for America to advance."
And crap like that.
99% of us are SEC football fans - that's why we are at TD in the first place. Don't tell me that's a "pussy way of thinking" when we all root for teams in our division to lose every week during football season to better our team's chances of winning the division.
I root for anything that helps my teams.

Exactly.
I realized then and now that most of those posters were just trolling, which is why I didn't respond yesterday. But I still think they should be called out after yesterday's result clearly hurt the US, which is what the smart people were saying could happen.

I only pulled for a draw when it seemed to me that Germany might just lose... 
Posted on 6/23/14 at 7:30 am to Cockopotamus
Pulled for a Ghana result. I want us to WIN the group. On Saturday I wanted us to WIN the group. I'm fine with us advancing given the results through 2 rounds. But at the time of the Ghana match, Germany losing (given their huge gd in first match) gave us more options to win the group(would only need a tie on Thursday had we hung on for 20 more seconds). I'm not going to apologize for wanting to see the US win the group of death.
