Comments(33)

The Carthage Eagles have 7 points to our 5, and it’s highly probable that the winner of this match will go on to SA2010. Expectations are high, and the anticipation is palpable. With the sting of missing out on 2006 still ringing in our

Comments(12)It has been an uncertain list in the past 2 weeks but I think we finally got the 23 man squad intact.

B is for Battle
Comments(3)
So Nigeria has drawn group B with Argentina, South Korea, and Greece. I’m too sick (some type of flu) for more insightful thoughts, but at first glance, it looks pretty tough. But it’s not the dreaded Group of Death (see Ivory Coast). I’m not sure if it’s the meds ... [read more]
