Uh-mazing

This morning's game was just incredible. Way to go USA. We were robbed once again with the first goal, but the second goal in the 91st minute was just impressive.

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.
