England 1 Argentina 0

That's my kind of day at work [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]

Ahh the World Cup. Life is good. The US beat Portugal. England beat Argentina. France lost. Very nice.

Here is a link to some great articles being written about the World Cup. They have made me laugh. (grins)

"Merle, what is up with this O'Douls? England won. Give me a Guinness! Please. "

Huzzah! Congrats, Ian. Crash, I should've called you during soccer to see what sort of exclamations I'd get over the phone and do a compare and contrast to hockey [img]wink.gif[/img]

Barkeep! A round of Guinness!

"Yes!" Baze surged out of the chair and danced around the room. "Take that, Argentina!" She suddenly realised that she looked a mite foolish dancing round like a loon, and sat down quickly. "Barkeep, that's a round for everyone if you please! No, make that two rounds! This is a celebration!"

LOL Ery. One problem, soccer is on at 2:30, 4:30, and 7:30 am out here. I am not watching too many of the games. (grins) I need my beauty sleep.

Now you could have called in the middle of the third period of the Red Wings game the other night. You sould have gotten an earful when Lindtrom and then Draper scored those two golas with in thirteen seconds of each other. [img]cool.gif[/img]

Well geez, what about LAST night's game? Triple overtime? Mark about had kittens before the Red Wings FINALLY scored the winning goal and I was beat. Good thing they're not playing tonight or both teams'd be dragging. Should be a pretty interesting final, the 'Canes are giving the 'Wings a run for the cup.

Baze looked up briefly from the TV. "What is this 'hockey' that you speak of? Used to play hockey at school- didn't think it was all that popular!"

She turned back to the screen. "Here we go, chaps, USA versus South Korea. I'll give you 3 to 1 that the US wins. Any takers?" She tucked her England scarf back into her jacket and produced a USA banner. Hanging it round her neck, she turned back to the game. "Come on you whites!"

Tell me about it. Here is is 1:30 am and I am still waiting to see if the Red Wings will win. Sheeesh.

But they did, and that is all that matters. (grins)

Team USA needs a tie to advance to the second round. Since Poland has lost both its games, I think it is more then possible. Soth Korea could be in some trouble. Portugal is not going to be an easy team to beat or tie and they are going to be playing all out.

Nomad slurs loudly foroim the corner table. Everybody forget he was even there.

GO U.SSSHHHH.A!!!!!

Bad luck guys, your keeper played very well though.
Baze - for some reason the Americans make hockey even harder by playing on ice. Silly idea really.
