Silas (son of Silas):
I didn't see the match, I took the opportunity to go shopping as I knew the supermarket would be completely dead. I heard it was a shameful show on our part though.

The crescent I live in is festooned in England flags. Hanging from the bedroom windows, roofs of cars they've hung England bunting and for weeks all I have been able to here are bloody air can horns and vuvuzelas. I'm hoping that it will all quieten down now and we can get back to normality.

Benevolance:
I hate shootouts in hockey and I hate them even more in soccer. It's a stupid way to decide the victory in a team-based game. Basically, it's random luck. There is no way the goalie can guess the correct shot location on a net that big, with a shot that close. He's just guessing. Eventually, one goalie guesses correctly and the game is over. Why not just flip a coin?

Edit: Japan lost. :(

That US match was frustrating to watch.  Once a team got the upper hand they just played keep away with the ball and the US tired out and just gave up.

That Mexico game on the other hand was incredible.  Mexico was playing a team they knew they couldn't beat but never gave up trying and Argentina wasn't satisfied with just having the lead, they were playing as though they were losing and needed another point.  Both teams were playing at 100% the whole time.

On the other hand, neither team missed an opportunity to fake an injury by falling to the ground assuming the fetal position and crying like a little girl to get the penalty call.

In American football a player only cries when a bone is protruding from his flesh.

Soccer is a game where crying like a little girl is a requirement to win.  That is why it is the gay sport.

Congrats to Level42 -- a well-played game and the one I was most worried about for Brazil.
