SI.com - I’m available for work

I don’t know what Jonah Freedman from SI.com is smoking, but it’s obvious to me that he didn’t even watch the match involving Australia and Japan before making these comments in his World Cup Power Rankings.

Horrible and lost for the first 83 minutes? It’s like this fool looked at when Cahill scored the first goal and decided that the Socceroos must have been asleep prior to that. Australia had the best opportunities for the entire match, but were unable to capitalise on them. Viduka had two great opportunities from close range, and Kewell had a nice effort from long range. The Japanese, on the other hand, had one legitimate shot on goal that was just wide of the post. Their goal was hardly a shot, more like a cross that wasn’t saved because of interference.

If SI.com is in search of someone who has actually watched ALL the games and can provide commentary, analysis, and power rankings, they can contact me through this website.

Who is this clown? And what part of ‘watching a full game’ doesn’t he understand?! Wanker!

I seriously believe he looked at the game results, the times people scored and made his analysis from that. It’s a bloody disgrace.

That guy is an absolute moron! His entire rant was not only a load of rubbish but full of dirty Americanisms. “Where was England’s Offence?” to rhyme with NFL. “Where was Steven Gerrard” like he actually understands the significance of his comment. “Japan dominated the game for 80 minutes, then they went to sleep”. “I’m surprised that Robinho was the only brazilian subsitution, it would be more fun to see the likes of Cicinho and Gilberto Silva”. Gilberto Silva is the most boring player in the Brazilian squad!! Wanker…
Next thing you know he’ll be crapping on about “shutouts”, the 1st down count, replacement pitchers and how everyone should play in the MLS because it’s the greatest league in the world.

Do American’s really believe this rubbish??

My other favourite comment at the moment is “Croatia are you going to make it through this group now because they had such a great result against Brazil.” Brazil played like a pile of turd in that game and made Croatia look good, do you think anyone over here knows enough about the game to realise that? NO!

Good to see some passion in the comments now!
