The scenes at the AFCON were disturbing and at times downright scary. They had to suspend the match in the 82nd minute w Ghana up 3-0 and the Eq Guinea fans began attacking the Ghana fans, drove them onto the field. They were throwing bottles and eventually stones. Authorities had to huddle them behind a goal to protect them, then got them out; then used tear gas to get out the Eq Guinea fans out......

.....and then after almost 40 min delay, played the last 8 min of the match.

Dunno what will happen with the final, I doubt they can keep it there now.

The match was almost abandoned at halftime for bottle throwing. You should've stayed the hell away from that match.

He was channeling some super powers last night. He had an earlier corner that he swung in at the front corner and damn near nailed that one too. I couldn't help but think if this guy is making it look this easy, why doesn't everyone just crowd the box and aim front/back post?

He's been around a long time, and been bald for most of it. That's likely why

Anybody on FC Dallas worth rooting for/exciting to watch?

I get free tickets whenever they are in town and they play about 5 minutes from my apartment in Frisco so figured I'd take the little one maybe a time or 2.

You guys had Kaka.. Bradley, Altidore and Giovinco didnt dress and you drew. TFC isnt some stout squad, theyre just stupid top heavy lol. Some dman from Poland signed for league price so he dont even count as a DP. pretty sweet. They'll find a way of fucking it up though

Corey - No one that is going to blow you away. They have a good amount of pace though with Fabian Castillo and a solid youngster that was just called to the USMNT, Tesho Akindele.
