given your alma mater James, I'm suprised you actually know of the game called American Football. i guess maybe they still play it in intramural leagues at Doouke. :twisted:

Ditto, but I could give a crap less about soccer.

I am listening to the game on ESPN radio. I haven't found a live video feed anywhere yet. They are getting ready to come back from half time now. The first half was pretty good and the comentators are entertaining.

Here in Germany it's crazy, every restaurant has a TV or big screen setup, same with the pub.
In the store they are selling World Cup stuff. In the training the guy's are talking World Cup, there is even
a guy from south Africa in our training. Last night when I arrive at the apartment after dinner I saw light outside.
Someone had a projector and where using the neighbor building as a screen that's was a big screen
I will say 15' by 25'. will see if they do it again tonight.

That ref was terrible!! Lots of bad calls/no calls on both sides.

Go Algeria!!!

well, complaining about the ref is poor form when you come out slow and miss a bunch of great opportunities in front of Slovenia's net. (not directed at you , Marcus, but at the US team in their post-game interviews) That first Slovenian goal was totally blown by the US defense...we deserved to be down 0-2 for sure!

But what a great comeback, eh? Landon blasting a top-shelf shot over the face of the goalie at point-blank range? Good stuff!

Yes, the ref blew a call (on replay it seemed like he blew the whistle before they took the kick?) at the end, but once he blew the whistle he probably realized his error, and knew he couldn't undo what he had done. The replay seemed to show no US foul--but I'm biased...

Got to--GOT TO beat Algeria now.
