I don't know if getting red carded to save what would have been a golden goal is awesome or sad.

So a co worker is taking his lunch and watching 'the big game' and I ask him to tell me the score since I'm away from the TV working. He says something like 3-11. I'm all 'What? OMG! Who won, Spain?' and he's all "Yankees". I'm like 'why are you watching baseball during the world cup?'. This is after a conversation earlier when I told him we should have the station set to watch the world cup in the dining room. Right then one of the drivers walks in and she sees us fiddling with the TV and asks if we're watching the world cup and I was laughing 'no because someone tuned it to baseball instead' and she was all 'WTH?!? who watches baseball during the world cup?'

lol

Go Spain! I said I hoped Spain would win to my gf and she got all riled up I wasn't rooting for a 'true latino team' because they are part of Europe. She wants Uruguay to win since Argentina lost.

I got confused because yesterday there were games playing but with teams that were out. It turns out they were reruns.

I'm still interested in the World Cup despite the US being eliminated, but I'm not interested enough to manipulate my sleep schedule in order to be able to watch the games like I was for the US, so I haven't seen many games since then.

Before the world cup began I was asked who would lift the trophy and I said "Spain"
After the first round of matches is said "Argentina"

but Now I'm gunna get back on the Spain bandwagon, obviously.

So...hung over....

Dutch know how to party that's for sure....butt **** the dutch. They play like ****. No class, no style.

Speakin of which...the Germans are taking this WC hands down...They are lethal with only three players on a counter-attack. You don't think Argentina could've beat Spain or Holland? Then you're stupid. Brazil lost their cool and that's why they lost; it had nothing to do with how Holland played, but more like how they didn't. Flopping like bitches all over the place. Just try with ze germans, dutch. Floppin' won't stop the pace of them young german players. They came to ball.

Spain doesn't stand a chance. I'd be surprised if they scored...seriously...

Seeing Ghana lose made me and the rest of the continent cry. I've never seen such a devastating lost. P.S. When that dude fell on his head and passed out, I and the rest of the bar thought he was dead. That **** has happened and it's no joke. Totally humbled the game for second.

Anyway...it's been one hell of a world cup.

F U Spain. Germany has shown the best football in this championship, but Spain has been so lucky, so they're the ones to go to the finals.

Luck had nothing to do with it. Spain simply dominated that whole game.

How can it be 2006 all over again when neither team has made it to the finals before?

There are bigger records by the way, but I think Mop it up was just trying to mock the sport.

Mock is such a harsh word. More like facetious.
