A lock for what?

AlphaOmega · 06-19-10, 12:15 PM

There is no such thing as a "lock" in any sport ... I bet you thought Germany would have been a "lock" against Serbia ... "locks" are just for people who are desparate to convince themselves on what team to bet on ... By the way US will TIE or LOSE this next game

USA wins, but i never use this term, lock.

pavyracer · 06-19-10, 12:39 PM

You have a team with a swiss cheese defense facing a team with a tight defense and ambitious forwards

ramones951 · 06-19-10, 01:00 PM

You just never know with the US... I would be wary betting on them. However they may come out with a lot of determination after being robbed in their last game and Algeria is basically done.

totally wrong, even though England failed to score Algeria put out some world class defending, the only goal they have conceded was a mistake by their keeper just like England.

swiss cheese defense sounds pretty good actually since Switzerland's defense owned Spain.

no lock in this f.cking world cup

wasabee · 06-19-10, 01:21 PM

loooool bet the house+car+wife+kids if its a lock brother

talnted · 06-19-10, 01:28 PM

Nothings really a lock in the world cup, but i hope they win.

alwcb · 06-19-10, 01:33 PM

I'd play win/draw. Don't see them losing but they haven't shown entirely they can win yet.

Everybody thought England was a

against Algeria.

Kemalettin · 06-19-10, 03:02 PM

im in !!! usa played very well on last game

Boscoe · 06-19-10, 03:31 PM

Don't see them losing. Good luck.

TurkzZ · 06-19-10, 03:33 PM

Algeria are not that bad, not a Lock, but USA have the quality to win, not to say the refs owe them a decision

England would could have scored if they'd strung some passes together.

Algeria can't score, they've scored 1 goal from a penalty in 7 games. USA to win is a good bet.

Dark Horse · 06-19-10, 05:32 PM

US found themselves in second half of last game. They'll take that momentum and confidence into this game. The US is out unless they win, so this is a come from behind scenario that, for some reason, the US seems to love. But another flat start and they'll be on the plane back home.

snowball22 · 06-19-10, 05:40 PM

No lock. Algeria has this defense and they can play 0-0 again.

Stifler · 06-19-10, 06:11 PM

USA will Win against algeria

But they can't do that .. Algeria has to win to advance; and while Im sure they want a good showing but conceding the fact they want to go home seems un likely

Sunde91 · 06-19-10, 06:32 PM

Not a lock, but -120 ish ML seems like a great line.

pavyracer · 06-19-10, 06:59 PM

Does anyone even know when was the last time the US kept a clean sheet?

This is false. A draw and some scenarios play out and they still advance, just so ya know.

Spain had soooo many chances. Wouldnt consider that good defense

This is correct. If the US draws and England doesn't win the US will advance. A loss eliminates the US. But a draw can see them go through.

tatommack · 06-19-10, 09:43 PM

Not if they get the same reff

McBa1n · 06-19-10, 09:51 PM

I like the US in this game. I'm not sure if they can break down that defense of Algeria - it's been really good. It's going to take a garbage goal to make it happen, though. Can the US defend, though. That's the bigger question.

Slim · 06-20-10, 12:42 AM

Wasn't England a lock the other day against Algeria?

Socrates · 06-20-10, 01:06 AM

I would place a small bet on the United States. A pk pick sounds about right.

virus450 · 06-20-10, 01:08 AM

USA and engalnd will pass the group,

warriorfan707 · 06-20-10, 01:10 AM

Im a lock.
