Being able to see exactly what was going to happen for like 30 seconds was painful
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

WTF is Robinson doing...

Have to give the Dutch credit. We've had some horrendous breakdowns, and they've punished us for it.

Welp, that does it.

About what I expected. Not a horrible performance from the US, but one where they're obviously the worse team.

They're standing around and watching not anticipating the runs or where the Dutch are going to pass.

Then a wide open pass, the guy can't control it and lets go out of bounds.

They defended better vs. England, for some reason their heads aren't in the game.

The goals they gave up are mental errors, not because of some brilliant playmaking by the Dutch. They're like blown coverages in the NFL.

Now they don't have the skills on offense but on defense, they're just AWOL today.

This set us back 20 years. There’s no excuse to lose to the Dutch.
