Getting back to FIFA, I'm glad our next game is Ghana and not Germany.

If we can get past Ghana, Uruguay isn't going to be anything to sneeze at. Very tough, very strong team.

I love the fact we went on and the Italians couldn't even get out of the group. Take that, Rossi! "rlol"

Not to belittle any true soccer fans, but I just LOVED the headline from "The Onion" after team USA lost today:
Ghana defeats United States' interest in soccer

Those Germans look like the readl deal to me. They clinically destroyed the Argentinians. Looks like European teams are in the ascendency this World Cup.

Roll on 2014! lol
