I'm falling more and more in love everyday. Today's countries might not have been up to the skill level of the people who battled it out yesterday, but I'd prefer to watch this kind of football anyday. There wasn't a lot of scoring going on, but a lot of beautiful shots and blocks that made it all worthwhile. So intense. Wonderful.

Germany  (vs.) ( Read more... )

I missed England play this morning...yeah I KNOW. AGAIN. I have some severe insomnia problems and I had pretty much just fallen asleep by the time the game came around...so yeah. But I hear Beckham really bent it. And isn't that all that matters? :P He's such a loser. a very pretty loser. haha.

anyways, I saw the second game which was full of ( Read more... )

Today Argentina and Mexico played what might be like the best game ever. It was so sweet. They went into overtime which was CRAZY and I couldn't even imagine being one of those players who was in there for the entire 120 minutes. That's just...wow. Argentina got a beautiful goal in overtime and sent Mexico packing. The score was only 2-1, but it ( Read more... )

Well it's been a rough few days for teams who suck. Actualy, that's not fair because all of them did make it to the World Cup...however...they just didn't have enough fire in thier pants to make it. As you probably know, our great country's team is among these losers. Here's the list of countries who didn't cut the mustard and have to wait 4 more ( Read more... )

My schedule has never been more screwed up. I'm sleeping in the wrong half of the day and missing all the daylight hours. It's 4 AM and I still can't fall asleep. This sucks. Hmmmm...this is either insomnia or just very poor planning on my part.

The matches are going well but I haven't been bothering myself with scores lately just because it's so ( Read more... )

I forgot to paste this in here from Saturday

Woah. Interesting day. Again, I'm sure there were things in the other games I was supposed to be paying attention to...but that basicaly got erased from my brain once the US game came. It actualy wasn't a game. It was a BATTLE.

Truth be told, I've probably missed about 10 games completely. Yes, I know. It's really bad. But I'm trying to improve things. Tomorrow's going to be a FANTASTIC day and the U.S. will probably get thier butts kicked again by those Italian Stallions so I really don't want to miss that.

Since the beginning I've wanted to do a sort of weekly "Best Of ( Read more... )

I'm not here to complain because I'm alive and blessed and healthy and everything else. However, I'm having the world's most difficult time being allowed to watch the game, hence the recent absence of updates. I've missed like 8 games so far...which is not what I expected to happen. I know this isn't a huge deal, but it being summer and this being ( Read more... )
