In reply to: Postrider, watchingthe U.S.A. win its group for the first time since 1930--we've come a long way, baby--but it took a loooong time to do it!!! 's message, "We "wuz" robbed when we scored against Slovenia and it was called a foul on us when WE were clearly held and thus fouled! We wuz robbed again today against Algeria when we were called offsides scoring a goal where the Algerian defender and the goalie were behind the ball--but we won anyway in the additional time; so, the U.S.A is now in the round of 16, too. Let the fun begin!!!" on 12:19:46 06/23/10 Wed

He looked at me, looked back at the television and must have thought in his wise, catly way, "These humans!" and walked off sedately. (He's probably a little hard-of-hearing...) -- Postrider, waiting for Saturday and our next game..., 17:52:50 06/23/10 Wed

Good luck, Lucia. Argentina and Germany look pretty good to me. -- Postrider, who'd a thunk that at my age, I would have rediscovered soccer (er, futbol, er football). NAH!
