Now that SA has been bounced, can FIFA get its heads out of its collective butt
and nuke those stupid vuvuzelas. FIFA's position was that the vuvuzela was part of the
culture / soccer experience in SA. Now they are out,,I say out with the acursed
noise maker.
As for France, since they got into the WC with a tainted win over
Ireland (Pierre Henry handball), I think it is a little bit
of poetic justice that they got bounced....
GO USA
The FIFA rankings have Italy at 5
New Zealand is 83.
For the Kiwis, this is huge. As is any tie when a lower ranked
team ties a higher ranked team. They get one point and
are still in the running to qualify for the round of 16.
Fixed...
1975 Buffalo Sabres vs. Flyers in the Stanley Cup. Sunday afternoon game. The future Mrs. Lew is to graduate from college in Buffalo. Ceremony at Kleinhams Music Hall. But the game is at the same time. Fortunately I had a small transistor radio and an earpiece. The future Mrs. Lew's name was called during the first intermission YAY.
The in-laws were not sports fans at that time, so they did not see the big deal.
Jack Kemp was the guest speaker.
Good luck with your event
Some one asked if the USA team had a team nickname.
The defense could be called "Swiss Cheese" since it seems to have so many holes.
Thank goodness for Tim Howard.
As a referee, I am looking forward to seeing the replay of this.
When you have a goalie who likes to move forward, you have to be
alert as a linesman..
Gringo brought out a good point about disclaimers....
Would it be a good idea not to post scores, so that the TiVo
crowd can watch the match without any knowledge ?
My recommendation would be to post the score in white inside < >
so that you have to look for the score if if you want to.
Just an idea from this old feeble mind

Yes, I am listening to football on the radio at work.
I told the guys at work that on Sat at 2PM
there had better be a nuclear meltdown for
them to call me with a problem.
