    So pumped! Just called like 9328656754 bars and finally found one down the street that will be showing the game.

    Anyone in the Toledo/NWO area...

    BDubbs in Bowling Green is showing the game, which was a bit far for me (north end of Toledo) to drive today since I have work at 7.

    Also, Frogtown Johnnies on Central and McCord is showing the game. I talked to the manager since the hostess didnt know and he said that they show all the games. I know where I will be from now on! Great food and a really fun bar also, for those who have never been but might be interested.

    Anyone on this thread even from this area or am I talking to myself? lol

    I'm not far away, about an hour. But it's all too far for me tonight. My wife actually works in Toledo.

    That B Dubs is only a 25 minute drive. I might go

    A win this afternoon would be pretty awesome. I'd even be happy with a draw to kick things off on the road.

    Haven't played Honduras since 2011 (a 1-0 win for the US), haven't played them in Honduras since a 3-2 win in WC qualifying in 2009.
  • Automatik
    They said they deemed today a national holiday in Honduras. I'm sure it will be super hostile. I'm pissed I can't watch.
  • Fab1b
    Watching on my phone via the slingbox at the office, go USA!
  • gorocks99
    Not watching (just following online) but it seems the pace of play has calmed down a bit. Frenetic first 15 minutes.
  • gorocks99
    Again, prefacing that I'm only following online, but now it seems we're giving up a lot of good chances. Howard having to do work. Not what I wanted to see.
  • Fab1b
    GOOOOOAAAAALLLLL US 1 - 0
  • NilesPacMan
    Nice goal from Dempsey. Good to see the US get the first one.
  • gorocks99
    Of course, just after I type that it's DEMPSEY!

    GOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
  • Fab1b
    wow 1 - 1
  • gorocks99
    fuuuck
  • gorocks99
    Well, halftime 1-1. Those watching the game - thoughts?

    Meh.

    Having Jones, Bradley, and Williams in the midfield (all defensive-minded guys) shows our hesitancy in this game. Add in that it's 93 down in Honduras and it's a single-fixture date, and you get the result you see.
  • Fab1b
    US is bad
  • Fab1b
    Wow got lucky there
  • Pick6
    jesus christ the minute i put the game on honduras scores
  • Fab1b
    Pitiful 2-1 Hond
  • gorocks99

    Could happen. We went 2-1-2 on the road in qualifying first out of CONCACAF for the 2010 cup so a loss here isn't devastating, but makes our margin for error that much smaller. Honduras was likely our 2nd-toughest road match in the Hex, behind Azteca.
