2010 World Cup

Now, I am late in my mention of the World Cup, it started a couple weeks ago, but it will carry onward for a few more weeks. There are very few perks to being unemployed, but one of them by far is the ability to watch any and all World Cup matches. Tomorrow I will be getting up at 7 a.m. for the U.S. Algeria game.

It is great to watch France reinforce every stereotype this World Cup with their whining, complaining and protesting; and in general most teams who were picked to do well have done meh. Case in point: England, France, Italy and Spain.

I hope you are watching the World Cup, too. According to Reuters, it looks like you are: ESPN and ABC had an average of 3.35 million viewers for the first 14 matches of the tournament - a 64% increase since the last World Cup in 2006.
