you should! this is pretty close for US soccer to what the US hockey team did to Russia back in the day... DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?

baseball is by far my least favorite of the major college sports. i still enjoy it, and i'll always pull for my horns, but i'm not skipping my first game of the season for this. if it were basketball or football... of course!

there are a lot of parents out there that push their kids harder than the coaches do. before we place the blame on the coach, we need to at least consider the possibility that the parents pushed her to play, and possibly pressured the coach to put her back on the field as well.

i have a soccer game at six, but i fully hope to get home and see Texas in the lead in about the 7th inning!

fan lady hasn't sung yet!

i'm just glad i won't have to see him on TV as much. he looks like gumby with Down's Syndrome

horns still rolling! got a huge out when LSU left early on a sac fly

great start, though!

Nope. I shoot 73-73-82 to not even place in the 2nd flight. I should have played Presidential, would have taken 2nd. i didn't know you could actually play. remind me never to join up with you on the course. i usually hit 73 by about the 14th hole.

if his score is 4 or 5 strokes better than almost everyone else during the last round, i'd say he made his move. if conditions are tough enough, a string of pars is often good enough to move up the leaderboard.

i hate it when we field teams with a bunch of players that have no business touching the field (and no, i'm not talking about Davy)

9.53 ERA. this kid really deserved a chance to get in there!!!!!

i think they'll have quite a few pitchers available... they had a lot of guys go, but most of them didn't face many batters.

crap. great game from both teams. it's pretty clear that both teams deserve to be here. hopefully the horns can bounce back tomorrow. they gave this one away...

a shame Texas doesn't know how to hit the longball. if they did, they'd have 10 by now, instead of just 5

where is joesbros?

LSU pulled one back with a dinger, but still trail 5-4 going to the bottom of the 7th.

i just got home, and i couldn't help but notice that the longhorns are winning... they're so lucky!

great tournament... Tiger is clearly the best in the world. He putts poorly, is something like 14 back at one point in the second round, and finishes the tourney in the top-10. i bet he'd give himself a C- for his tourney, and he made the top-10. most players C- game would've sent them packing after round two. If Tiger had been in the afternoon flight for the first two rounds, he would've probably cakewalked to a victory. still, he had his chances and missed on some of them. Aside from all the tiger talk, great win for Glover, and a fantastic tournament for Duval. He wasn't kiidding about finding his swing!

that could be because your average joe in the usa has some experience with basketball and played a little when younger while the same guy probably never played or thought about playing soccer...if you go give a bunch of brazilian kids a basketball they are gonna drop it on the ground and kick it around....the brazilian average joe would prolly be much better off kicking it around than shooting hoops...just a thought...some of the differences is culture driven...soccer is definitely a difficult sport to master, but i'd argue that the basics of it are just as basic as football or basketball, but if you live in a culture that only plays football and basketball you are a lot better with your hands than your feet while if you live in a country that plays soccer your a lot better with your feet than your hands...you have to develop that coordination either way, it doesnt jsut happen... a good point, but most people use their feet for walking and running, and little else. every day people use their hands to do hundreds of different skills, so when you take a basketball or a football and put it in their hands, they'll have some sort of muscle memory that will help them. when it comes to soccer, the skill set is completely foreign to someone who's never played soccer. give me a 10 year old who's never played soccer OR basketball, and i'll give you a child that begins to succeed in basketball MUCH quicker than in soccer.

good answer.

i'm loving this... there's not really any pressure on us longhorn fans for once. at least on this site, everyone expects LSU to win, and all of the trash talk has come from LSU fans. If UT wins, we get to talk as much as we want, but if LSU wins, we won't have to eat any crow. it's a nice place to be in.

you gotta feel bad for the guys who got screwed by being in the morning flight for the first two rounds (tiger included). the conditions were infiinitely easier for those in the afternoon flight, as represented by the fact that only one player from the morning flight was in the top 10 after the second round.

normally i wouldn't take much pride in the fact that we advanced with a 1-2 record, but i honestly believe had we not been hosed by a weak red card against italy, we would've at least gotten a draw, if not a win, and goal differential would not have mattered.

they played great! i thought bradley's goal should've been called back because dempsey was offsides and shielded the keeper, but it made up for the the ball that Egypt cleared off the line with an arm a few minutes earlier.
