I did post some snippets elsewhere.
I am drenched in "football"( as FIFA insists we call the game.)
I have watched most of the games thus far.  South Africa drawing 1-1 against Mexico was a great game.  We played the best game in years!
The USA/England game was lifeless and outright boring.
The Netherlands / Denmark game was interesting.  NL won 2-0.  One goal was an own goal by a Danish player!  He partly redeemed himself by executing a spectacular save soon thereafter.
This afternoon New Zealand is playing Slovakia.  Hope NZ do better than what the Socceroos did, getting beaten 4-0!
The Italy / Paraguay game almost caused a stir when P led until the last quarter of the game, when the reigning world champions scored a goal to draw the game.  Italy sure didn't look like world champs!
