OK, here we go.  First major controversy.  France slips in on a goal that happened when Henry used his hand to save a play that would have been over and it resulted in the winning goal for France.


Should FIFA start using video replay?  I say probably not since they don't stop play for much else.

Ireland's pissed but I don't care and this is why:


Ireland would have taken the win if they scored the winning goal following a hadball that wasn't called.

Bad news for my WC Favorite Roster

David Beckham has fallen victim to the silent assassin of footballers, the snapped Achilles, the injury that occurs even when no opponent is close by, the incapacitation that brings curtains down on careers.

Wow!  That sucks!  England and USA are in the same group aren't they?  It's been a while since I looked at the groupings, but I think that's the case.  I have citizenship in both.

Yep, group C: USA, England, Algeria and Slovenia. Group G is the killer with 3 legit contenders: Brazil, Netherlands, Portugal and Korea.
