I also just discovered that I can add all of the USA's games (or any team) straight onto my google calendar. Sweet.

I've had the Three Lions song going through my head for days now. I'm a huge England fan (and Chelsea, more specifically, what of it?) and my friends are calling me a traitor for cheering for them tomorrow.

My cheap cable package has no sports channel.

Crap.

Some weekend matches, like US vs. England tomorrow, are on ABC.

Yeah, and ESPN was streaming the SA/Mexico match and this afternoon's match. I fail at seeing that the USA plays tomorrow and not today AFAIK. *facepalm*




Also I'm enjoying the Vuvuzelas on TV but I think if I were there I'd break them all or run screaming into the night.

Watching the Uruguay/France game, the Vuvuzelas are driving me CRAZY! If it wasn't for the commentators I'd put it on mute (we don't have closed captioning on our tv).

They kind of zone into the background for me after a while.

I would like them to have some way to tell me which team is which when I come in the middle and I can't tell which team's in which jersey.

If I watch long enough I figure it out but I'm needy.

Half of my ancestral homelands (and there are a lot) didn't even qualify, and this time I'm not really feeling England. I'm really interested in some of the underdogs, even if they don't really have much of a chance: New Zealand, Slovakia, Slovenia, Honduras, and especially Denmark. Go, Jon Dahl Tomasson!

ESPN Classic will have every World Cup game at like 7 p.m. on it's station. You'd have to check your listings, but its sometime in the evening.

I love you!

SLOVENIA?!??!?!?!??!? You do know that they're in our group, don't you?

This is so exciting!!!! I want to see the US win... but if not, I'll happily cheer for England the rest of the way!

More exciting than the Olympics!

Drolefille 06-12-2010 04:34 PM

I'll take a draw.

Also screw you Comcast for whatever is messing up your ABC feed. It was like watching TV on dialup.

Thankfully I found streaming: http://www.iraqgoals.net/

Especially since England scored both goals :p

FSUZeta 06-12-2010 04:52 PM

touche'!!-oh wait...that's french.

Elephant Walk 06-12-2010 10:20 PM

Hmm yes, the tie today was excellent.

The English will continue to say that America was "lucky" and that it was all their keepers fault, but really... it was a just result of an evenly balanced game.
