I wish I'd actually known it was on, I would have watched.
I love football. I used to play goalie, and it was pretty darn hard to get a ball past me!

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.

Anyone watch that Australia/Japan game today? I was almost tempted to turn it off with 10 minutes left and Japan up 1-0, but I had this feeling Australia could at least tie it up, and bam - 3 goals in 6 minutes. Pretty awesome stuff.
France tomorrow. I have my newly purchased scarf out and ready!

I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

I hate the OLGC... Went to put a proline bet down on Korea, France and Brazil to win tomorrow. Would have given odds of almost 4:1. I go to the counter and apparently so many people have bet on this treble that they're not allowing anymore bets on just these three matches. If all three win tomorrow I will be mad I was jipped out of 20 bucks.

the Togo and Korea game was painful to watch in the beginning... nothing much happened except a bunch of yellow cards. the second half was much better though.
but still korea won 2-1! i know thats probably "nothing" coz i knew that'd happen anyway but PHEW and YAY.

Considering Togo's coach quit two days before the match, and Togo is the worst team in the tournament, I would say Korea got really lucky.
Brazil was disappointing, and fatty Ronaldo might as well sat on the bench because he sure didn't do anything on the field.
Spain and Ukraine should be a good one to watch today.

Same thing happened to me.
]England were lucky today...
I'm thinking of picking the favourites for tomorrow's matches... Argentina, Holland and Mexico... proline is giving 3:1 odds on those three winning, throw in the Czech's on Saturday and it's 4.5:1 which is pretty good.

Mexico? really? I have a feeling Portugal will be too strong for them and Mexico will go out to Argentina in the round of 16.
