World Cup 2010

Wow, Germany just put a whoopin' on Australia. Germany's attack looked brilliant and creative. Germany should go 3-0 in group play which could lead to a matchup with the U.S. if the U.S. gets out of group play (which they should).

Simply awesome. You never know what can happen in each game. Love it!

Holy crap. I'm totally hooked. I watched the Argentina game casually, the US game with somewhat interest, the Slovenia game (that looked like an insanely slowly kicked goal) intensely and the Ghana game rabidly.

I'm streaming it now at work. I wonder how long it will take my boss to realize I'm not working any more.

NBA what?

I'm streaming it a little now and then too. I logged in just in time to see Japan's goal. Good stuff!

PENALTY SHOOTOUT

[mrtr33]

Well done. Good game.

Paraguay looked really good today. I guess I haven't been paying attention to Japan. That was harder that I thought, but Paraguay has impressed me again. They are my favorite team in this cup.

In respect to you, Nelson, I fly the Spanish flag today in my avatar.

Germany played a great game and not to take anything away from them, but, Australia's defense looked lost the whole first half of the match!

+1. I am watching the Italy - paraguay match right now. I am shocked Italy can't be more aggresive at the front! Then again, Paraguay's defense is doing a great job.

Go USA! We need a win against Slovenia today.

[denver24]

Absolutely attrocious refereeing! Silver lining...U.S. looked to be warming up for some goal scoring.

[Lopaka]

Since I live in Germany I'm cheering for both USA and Germany!

However, I want USA to go all the way.

*Cue "I'm a real American" now...

I don't want to sound like a whining American, but I don't understand why that last goal wasn't allowed. It wasn't explained well on the webcast I was watching. Was there a foul? Who was it on? There didn't look to be anything wrong with that play, other than Bradley being bear hugged and carried to the goal by his defender.

The US played really sloppily, though. They had good plays, but overall, it looked like Slovenia had a tighter, more consistent game. This makes this afternoon's Algeria - England game all the more important now.

Nelson, I'm totally hooked on this now. I wonder when my boss will start to notice the lack of productivity.

We should have had some kind of contest associated with the World Cup this year......
