Let's face it, England were quite poor in their opening game match of the 2010 World Cup with the United States, but I whole-heartedly believe that it's not all doom and gloom just yet and England fans have seen nothing near the best that will come from the Three Lions throughout the rest of this month long tournament. I'm […]

After what began as a brilliant start for England after Steven Gerrard scored the opener in three minutes, it looked as if it was going to be England's night. But the US battled back, were fortunate that Robert Green spilled the ball into the net. And the rest is history. At EPLTalk.com, we'll bring you […]

[polldaddy poll=3329742] After over six months of anticipation, we're now on the verge of seeing the World Cup kick off and the first gigantic matchup of the tournament when England plays the United States on Saturday at 2:30pm ET (live on ABC). But who do you think will win? Who has the ability to win […]
I have been to the past two World Cups. I was there in South Korea for the most famous almost-Cinderella run by the hosts in 2002. I was in Germany for the infamous Zidane headbutt that lost France the title in 2006. And this year, my father deemed it much too dangerous to let me […]
The World Cup has stopped wars, launched dictators and broken hearts. The month-long quadrennial soccer extravaganza can also reduce a nation’s GDP: neither over-zealous victory parties nor wallowing in defeatism do much for worker productivity. World Cup 2010 begins in South Africa on June 11. Human Resource departments at employers in the 32 participating nations […]
The techie folks over at Electronic Arts have created a simulation of what the final score of the England versus United States game may be. It's set to the sounds and graphics of their 2010 FIFA World Cup game which was recently released in stores. EA went ahead and performed simulations of all of the […]
During the last several weeks I have noticed that several pro England articles have appeared on EPL Talk and other sites especially concerning the USA vs. England match, and the articles seem to imply a feeling of arrogance, and nonchalance. Many people are already handing out the spots to make it to the group stage, […]

When I wrote a recent post entitled 8 Rules of World Cup 'Fight Club,' I encouraged soccer fans to rise up, begin talking the World Cup up to non-believers and to stand firm against the sports fans who laugh and joke at the sport we love. My "call to arms" was met with a mixed […]
The best American striker – and a guaranteed starter against England on June 12 – was not destined to be Jozy Altidore, Charlie Davies or (certainly) Robbie Findley. The best American striker is New Jersey-born, rap-music loving, Playstation-playing Giuseppe Rossi. Unfortunately, four years ago Rossi turned down the opportunity to play with the US to […]
ESPN has unveiled their TV commercial for the England versus USA game which will be televised live on ABC to an audience of millions in the United States. Not surprisingly, the video features sounds and images that are very patriotic. While it's not as good as some of the earlier ads that ESPN has created […]
