Daryl
- I'll be attempting some neutrality, but would much prefer to see the US win this. For the good of soccer in America in general if nothing else. And because a win would mean more to the US players and fans that it would to Brazil.

Daryl
- Poll published... who do you see lifting the trophy today?

That would be fantastic. Would finally ease the pain of seeing Giuseppe Rossi score that double...

- Alexi Lalas' strategic advice for USA: "Defend like banshees"

[Comment From Hana]
Did Alexi Lalas just tell us to defend like banshees? Erm...hear, hear?
