Should be 3-2. They probably shouldn't continue saying that refs name on TV for his own safety. There are people far more into this than I that would actually do something about it.

haha please, you guys don't know anything about football or football riots. :p

Ehh, not a big deal. There are many, many bad calls in sports all the time.

An ump just cost someone a perfect game a couple of weeks ago on an awful call. Hes not dead.

USA obviously proved they deserve to be there more than Slovenia. Call me what you, but we had more possession, our chances were they - they got lucky overall. Great first strike by

Slovenia but overall USA showed much more today to deserve the win, the 3 points, and a bit of respect. Terrible call.

USA public, welcome to the world of football! Teams and countries have to live with these mistakes, nothing will be done afterwards, you'll be lucky to get an apology from the ref.

We have baseball. The epitome of bad officiating.

If I'm doing my math correctly, England wins both of its two games and USA beats Algeria, and both US and England advance, correct?

welcome to the real sports world where everything high in statistics don't always translate to win.

SVN had 49% possession to USA's 51%

SVN is ranked 25th, USA is ranked 14th

SVN commited 15 fouls with 4 yellow cards, to USA's 18 fouls with 1 yellow card.

Amazing how the team that doesn't win / draws (though American newspapers somehow seem to think that a draw = win), always blames the ref, the ball, claims the other team got lucky eh?

Otherwise, great game by both teams and quite an amazing comeback for USA.

No way.

Basketball has the worst...

The NBA isn't a sport. Its a glorified exhibition.

College Basketball officiating is generally pretty good.

The call in the box was dreadful, you can't deny that.

USA newspapers aren't retarded. I assume you mean the headline from the USA v England game...they were just referring to the fact that England was heavily favored and we were able to draw.

I dunno, from what I was seeing it looked like the whistle got blown before the ball passed the line. Could it have been a bad / unlucky call? Certainly, but they do happen all the time.

However, the ref's decision is final.

Football (soccer) doesn't seem to use technology as much as other sports do, and I really hope in the future they go invest more in it since it will only make referee decisions more accurate and fair.

USA newspapers aren't retarded.

Didn't say that now did I? But a draw is still not a win, regardless of how favored one team is. It was an exaggeration and thats that.

Statistics != win. Uruguay beat South Africa 3 - 0, yet Uruguay had 49% of the possession vs. RSA's 51%.

Thats the beauty of football....it's not about statistics!

Oh totally, this world cup has been nothing but proof of that. But I was just referring to Alladaskill's point about USA deserving to win, and SVN being lucky.

From what it looked like, both teams were pretty even and both played well. USA's comeback was certainly impressive, probably even the best in the 2010WC so far, but that doesn't mean SVN's play was just pure luck.

    • App, useful & Teams shouldn't be used in the same sentence.
    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,  
    • Maybe ? DLSS Swapper (can swap the DLSS/FSR/XeSS versions) as long as the game (typically online/competitive) doesn't checks for file tampering. You can try different version(s) or update if not the current version of the FSR. https://github.com/beeradmoore/dlss-swapper
