Knock out stage. Trying to make the jump from the 16 teams to 8 teams where the winner of this game will play the winner of Argentina vs Switzerland. No ties...someone has to advance. Detailed preview here via Shinguardian. |

I was watching at home and actually threw a half full beer can from my living room to kitchen. It wasn't one of my finer moments, but I was livid

I've never been a big soccer fan, but I do enjoy watching the World Cup. First got interested about 20 years ago. I think that was the year that the MLS started up and one of the World Cups (men's or women's?) was in the US. I'll admit that the offsides rule was a little weird and confusing. I did find a nice vid on Youtube explaining it and now I think I have a pretty good understanding. And I have always understood the extra time thing. Still think it is stupid, though. Why can't they just stop the clock for subs and whatnot like every other sport? I also think that soccer suffers a bit due to low scores and ties. Despite those flaws, it is still an exciting game to watch.

I think it's a lame chant, personally. It doesn't make a lot of sense

I'm wearing a red/blue/white (mostly red) plaid button down today. This morning while getting dressed I asked the gf:
Awesome: What color is my shirt? Awesome gf: Salmon-reddish? Awesome: WRONG! It's the color 'Merica! Leaving work around 3P today to go watch the game with her before her shift @ the hospital.
