Fifa World Cup 2010

And now Chile's a man down...yeah, it was a bad call, but as the announcers pointed out, the man who got ejected got away with one 10 minutes before.

*KABOOM*

That was the sound of Chile imploding.

If the results stand, it looks like Chile, with 11 players booked, are going to get to play Brazil. IOW, enjoy South Africa while you can, guys, because you're going home very soon.

They were lucky enough, that switzerland was so weak against honduras.

Bye
Thanee

Well, and far more importantly, the constant club football which goes on in between; much of which is at a far higher standard than these international games.

I did mention the various leagues and what not.

As for the quality, the players do spend more time training with their clubs than with their national teams, so I guess that is to be expected?

They snuck in a goal there even being a man down, but they need to turn it around in time for the round of 16.

... Which I'm pretty excited about. Spain/Portugal and Germany/England will be great.

Sadly, playing the part of Cogsworth in Beauty and the Beast means that missing rehearal is not really on. I'll watch the first half and have to keep up with the second half via other people's phones, I guess.

Call the understudy,
I can't go on tonight.
I'm drinking with my buddy,
I'm getting good and tight.
Before they raise the curtain,
I'll be higher than a kite.
So, call the understudy,
I can't go on tonight.

Tell the cast and crew to break a leg. (break a leg!)
Roll me out another bloody keg. (bloody keg!)
I need to ease the pain that life can bring.
And liquor is what will hit the spot,
The play is not the thing!

So call the understudy,
I think it's only right.
My diction will be muddy,
I'll never find my light.
Before the intermission,
I'll be pissin' on a sprite.
So call the understudy,
I can't go on, (he can't go on!)
I won't go on, (he shan't go on!)
I can't go on tonight! (damn right!)

As for today . . .

















USA! USA! USA!

Plus they aren't limited to players from their own country; they (the richer teams, at least) recruit the best players around the world.

Another early goal.

I'm beginning to think that the USA can't stand 0-0 as a score, and will do anything to change it.

Either that, or they really believe in stories of self-made men, underdogs, bringing yourself up by your own bootstraps, and other fairy tales.

Oh well. Better luck in 4 years guys.

Rats.
