Back and Ready

Its been a while since anyone has posted on the blog and I apologize for that. Its been a while for me especially. Back from Germany with experiences that will last a lifetime (Dancing with Aussies in a Munich Square after a tie with Croatia, fun stuff). With the Quarter-finals starting tomorrow just a few ideas that should get out there.

I AM THROUGH WITH THE AMERICAN NAMES FOR THE WORLD'S BIGGEST COMPETITION. I will not stand for the quater-finals being called the Elite 8 (Its not March Madness) or the 2nd round being called the Sweet Sixteen. No more comparing the world's most notable athletes to American athletes (You can not compare Ronaldinho to anyone in the world in any sport I do not care about Michael Jordan or Lebron James). And as the MeanBaldGuy has stated before THE WAVE or "La Ola" (pardon the spelling if it is wrong) is stupid and should be banned. No need to show it on TV either, WE WANT TO WATCH THE GAME!

And now a notice to American announcers, especially Balboa: Get over the horrible Russian referee and stop complaining about cards. One minute you say that the ref was good in giving the 2 cards so early in the game then the next moment its too early for a third. CARDS DO NOT HAVE A TIME LIMIT OR RESTRAINT, they can be given at any moment of the match. And a notice to Dave Obrien and JP, you do not have to talk every moment of the game, be more like europeans please, they have perfected the game and everything about it, all you need to say is the last name of the person who has the ball. NO need for you to say "Swung outside to SOandSO, he passes it back to SOandSO" we are watching the game on TV we CAN SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING. If not we as sure would be listening on the radio and not to you.

Now to the games themselves. France v Spain was the last 2nd round game and just gets me even more excited for the next round. Great game, probably one of the best in the tournament. The type of game even if you arent rooting for someone your heartbeat is still racing. Germany v Argentina is the game to watch tomorrow, Ukraine plays too negative to really threat Italy especially with their 2nd striker out. I'm spent for now but stay tuned for more.
