Who is the male commentator at halftime and between games sitting with Chastain and Lilly? Unbelievable! When talking about Brazil he said "And when you think of Brazil you automiatically go back to the controversy with Hope Solo of last year." Are you kidding me!? No you don't of that when you hear Brazil. You think "Dang, those players are on fire! Marta, Christiane, Formiga, Daniela." You don't think about "controversies" from the past. So that was disrespectful of him there. And then! When talking about Sinclair and how he couldnt think of anyone else that came out of the University of Portland... WHAT!? Chastain stepped in and mentioned Tiffeny Milbrett but what about Shannon MacMillan!? OMG Get this guy out of there! So disrespectful of truly amazing players.
*note - Im NOT talking about JP! He's the man! Im talking about that olympic correspondent guy

Great game ladies! Awesome goals Angela and Tash in the clutch. Congrats to Shannon on her 100th cap and of course to Lauren Cheney who made her Olympic debut with a yellow card and almost scoring that goal. I won't be able to watch on Monday cause of school but I will still be rooting for you guys. I really hate the major time difference I've been staying up all night cause there's no way I can get up at 4 a.m. central time to watch a soccer game lol. Good luck against Japan.

What an awesome game. The fight you girls had in the end was amazing. You definately deserve this one :) Go USA!

That game was intense. I was literally on the edge of the sofa biting my blanket. Canada played well but US played even better. I really enjoy watching Rodriguez play up front. Her speed is amazing and she sure has great crosses.

It was good to see Lilly up there with Chastain. But I also thought it was unnecessary to bring up the Solo controversy. That's done with.....she has paid the price for that and everyone has moved on. It really didn't need a recap.

Go USA!!!

was i the only one to actually watch the 'winning goal'? kai was clearly in an offside position when the pass was made....at least a yard, maybe more....not even close
