If you had World Cup Fever

Going into yesterday's France vs. Uruguay Match-Up, you might of died of it.

Thanks to Thierry Henri's handball in qualifying, most of the World (and isn't most of the world Irish?) was routing against France. But, after seeing how they play, I think most of the world has decided they hate Uruguay too. Every negative stereotype about soccer, other than flopping and hooliganism was on display.

Well, if you need your flopping fix, there are still a few more LA Lakers games to catch.

Expiring minds need to know -- will Samuel Eto'o, the captain of Cameroon's Indomitable Lions, blow off the World Cup in a snit because Cameroon legend Roger Milla called him fat? He's not talking to the press. They'll know when we know Monday, when they're scheduled to play Japan.

I tried watching it - I'd like to understand the fascination the rest of the world has with the game. I would seriously rather watch golf on TV. And I HATE HATE HATE golf.

I watched some of US Eng today & it was a little better. I don;t know if I should be happy that I could see a difference in the play or disappointed because I really didn't enjoy what was a better game.
