There’s a show in Australia called “Santo, Sam and Ed’s Cup Fever!” and it’s freakin hilarious. I just found their YouTube Channel that’s not geo-blocked, and here’s my favorites from the playlist: Mexico Versus Argentina in longest GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!: Kiwis at the World Cup: Kim Jong Il talks about the loss to Brazil …and more for [ Read More ]
from one of my favorite sites…. The Onion: Soccer Officially Announces It Is Gay Pretty damn funny. “A bunch of guys running around trying not to touch a polka-dot ball with their hands.” That is all.
So…yeah…Obama didn’t come in and completely change the country when he was elected. But even the most biased liberal supporters didn’t expect him to….at least…i hope they didn’t. The problem i think is that my expectations about what he would be able to get done has not yet matched up with what he has done…but [ Read More ]
Today, unfortunately for the coverage of the World Cup, the USA was beaten by Ghana. It was a pretty good game, but the USA has no one to blame but themselves. They let in an early goal at the start of the game, and then almost identically at the start of extra time. They had [ Read More ]

So, the USA won their group at the expense of England in second place. It was an epic way to win as well…with Landon Donovan scoring in the 91st minute to beat Algeria 1-0. A draw would have seen England bow out of the World Cup, and even worse than that, would have resulted in [ Read More ]
Today was the start of the 3rd round of games in the first stage of the World Cup. That means that today is the start of hearts being broken, and dreams being realized. Teams start to get eliminated, and the drama increases exponentially. These games start at the exact same time, so that no teams [ Read More ]
Just because Australia is going to need a mini-miracle to qualify for the second round of the World Cup…i thought back to the glory days of qualifying through the Oceania region, instead of what they do now (Asian Region). And then there’s the game where Australia won 31-0. Who said soccer doesn’t have enough goals!
