Haha, I didn't think it was an American thing, but yes that's what I've always known it as.

The U.S. kind of got back into the groove especially with that 6-0 thrashing of Honduras, which helps the goal differential. Getting a point in Panama City was also big. If they can get another 4 vs. Trinidad and at Mexico in June, they could be good shape again. Iceland could've been better at Kosovo, but still got the 3 (and a nice friendly win in Dublin). That June match in Reykjavik vs. Croatia has all the makings to be a group-decider.

I was a teenager when this movie came out and it may not be known that well, but "U-Turn". Let's just say Jennifer had some sexy scenes in that movie. :P Let's go with Emily Blunt.

Gosh I'm not a big Will Ferrell fan at all, but the movie "Step Brothers" is a classic and he's definitely a big reason why. Gotta go with the love of my life, Scarlett Johansson

Very dark, with a not-so-obvious ending which really helped. Once you get over the fact that you're literally watching a what 12? year old girl slaughter everything in site without hesitation, it all becomes awesome at every turn. 10/10 without hesitation. I'm happy it also has a lofty 8.8/10 IMDB rating.

Gateway Drug is the one.

It's shit. I say this as a U.S. supporter that if the Americans don't play well enough to make a 32-team field (like 2018) then we shouldn't be given a life-ring by making it to an expanded 48-team tournament.

That's a shame. It's very exciting compared to other motorsports just for the fact that you have no idea who is winning each week. They're not afraid to make changes for the better, despite what the older fans think of it. This year they changed the scoring system again, so they take points for the Top 10 at two segments in the middle of the race, and then points for everyone at the end. If you win a segment or the race, then you get championship points from that. I can't wait to see how aggressively they're going to drive with all that on the line. These changes and the "Chase" have made it so much more exciting for casual fans.

NASCAR and my favorite driver is Kyle Busch (which is far from a popular opinion lol).

Ugh, Uzbekistan will never reach the next level if they can't get results at home vs. Iran. Two WC campaigns in a row.

Rumor is that the album might be called "Joanne". No confirmation, just fan speculation after hearing that the album title would be "third person" and personal.

I love Perfect Illusion, but I can't quite put it into my Top 20 yet. It's in the mix with Paparazzi, Telephone, Government Hooker and a couple of others just outside of it.

1. Heavy Metal Lover 2. Bad Romance 3. Poker Face 4. Alejandro 5. The Edge Of Glory 6. Summerboy 7. LoveGame 8. Applause 9. Fashion 10. Dance In The Dark 11. Venus 12. Highway Unicorn (The Road to Love) 13. Just Dance 14. Bloody Mary 15. So Happy I Could Die 16. G.U.Y. 17. Monster 18. Marry The Night 19. Starstruck 20. Born This Way

Agreed. I'd rank Finland at the lowest and even then a win over any of the other teams in the group is not out of the question. Iceland, Turkey, Ukraine, and Croatia is pretty much flip a coin at this point. Someone might be inclined to say Ukraine/Croatia would be favored historically, but Iceland and Turkey are the ones with the draws on the road. Great start for them both. I just need Iceland to finish first somehow and they got off to great start.

Also in Asia: Good start for Uzbekistan with the lead in Group A. (Beating the two lower teams Qatar/Syria to be fair, but got the job done) -- Home vs. Iran & China in October. Win those and they might be in the driver's seat. UAE with an upset at Japan 2-1 in matchday #1, lose their momentum with the home loss to Australia. Saudi Arabia continue to show renewed form after nearly a decade of mediocrity and are tied atop the group with the Socceroos. CONCACAF: The Hex is set and there are no surprises: USA, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Honduras, and Trinidad & Tobago (swapping spots with Jamaica as the Caribbean representative this time around)

Group I though: Iceland - 1pt. - 1 GF - 1 GA Croatia - 1pt. - 1 GF - 1 GA Turkey - 1pt. - 1 GF - 1 GA Ukraine - 1pt. - 1 GF - 1 GA Kosovo - 1pt. - 1 GF - 1 GA Finland - 1pt. - 1 GF - 1 GA

If it's between those two, it's got to be One Shot.

I called Scotland mismantling Malta (I had 5-0). I'm happy with Iceland's start by getting a draw in Ukraine.

That's 150% fake. One of her fans made it.

Voted. Add me to the Dance in the Dark club. Where is Heavy Metal Lover though? Obviously her best non-single ever and will be forever.
