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

Sorry to hear of your loss. Fortunately you and your family communicated your concerns ahead of time.

How badly do I hate the Pats.? It can't be measured.. Avagadro's number comes to mind.

Just order it with a salad with low fat dressing and a diet Coke and its all good.

Mexico and Uruguay advance. Mexico likely to play Argentina... adios tri-colors

Jay: Mrs. Lew just got the tickets in the mail many,. many thanks

Belated Happy Birthday Gringo !!

16 games is plenty.

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.

Go clock go.... 2 more minutes... tick,,,,tock....tick....tock

Where's Collina when you need him ? GO ALGERIA !!!!!! a tie vs. England would be nice

Mathematically a tie is OK... But the US needs a win... 13th minute ,, geesh go Algeria...

excellent point. The next time you watch a basketball game at ANY level, see how few players "Follow Their Shot". It rarely happens. GO USA

Favs, >> Carrots, peas, beans, brocoli , lima beans Non fav, >> Asparagus, beets, Brussel sprouts

France vs. Mexico...kinda like the Cowboys playing the Patriots. Hard to cheer for either team.

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

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport...-World-Cup.html I sure hope this is true

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.

I sure hope so. Thank goodness Tim Howard is OK after getting kicked.

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

XM Channel 236. 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. GO USA

He is applauded when he perfoms at Ringling, Barnum and Bailey's THE worst commissioner in ALL of sports

Check is in the mail. Thanks for your efforts
