I hadn't watched the game, but the US has to be concerned that two of their starters aren't playing the Chinese due to cards right? -- nm - Beaker Jun 23, 09:43 3
- It's a concern but in theory we should be strong enough to beat China. More concerning is that with 45 minutes of 11 on 10, we still couldn't handle - Will Hunting Jun 23, 09:45 2
  - I'm more concerned that nobody seems to care that Solo is a complete criminal psycho, but hey she's playing lights out so it's cool. -- nm - Shaun Jun 23, 09:46 1
    - Well, I feel dirty about her playing there, but I'm not about to condemn the rest of the team for her presence. - Will Hunting Jun 23, 09:54
