Did someone say World Cup?

Dang, I feel sorry for the goalies in the World Cup this year. The ball is designed a bit differently, with less seams, which causes unpredictable knuckleball-like behavior. Read more about is at LiveScience.com.

In other World Cup news, the good 'ol USA lost. Alas. Let's hope they fare better against Italy and Ghana. We have a lot of goal scoring to do to garner a good differential, which will more than likely decide who second place is in Group E.

More news: England fans were quite tame for once. Way to go England! Let's see if they're as tame when (if?) they lose. I'm betting on a whole lotta not.

Don't die.
