Great game. Great World Cup. Lots of "new fans". Excitement, defeat, every emotion across the board ! Question I have is will this unbelievable World Cup translate into more interest among U.S fans ?
Hard to tell. While I for one, will watch more European Futbol, soccer still has to compete with the NFL, NBA and NCAA hoops and football. So let's see. No doubt though, great month of thrills and tremendous coverage by ESPN( Tv and radio).
GOALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!

World Cup; Germany Destruction of Brazil Akin To Seattle Wipeout of Broncos In Super Bowl!!
I've been watching a lot of the World Cup 2014. Before this game I was not impressed with Brazil. But hey, they had been winning. The Semi-final I believed was a tossup. Expected a great(close) game and I felt Brazil would rise to the challenge .
Never in anyone's wildest dreams did we expect a 7-1 German beatdown! Hey, that's why we play the games. Argentina-Netherlands today. My pick; Argentina 2-1. See you at 4 today!

World Cup; Thank You , Thank You, Thank You Ghana!!!
Don't want to put a damper on the US's advancing out of " the Group of Death". Quite an accomplishment. I'm very proud of our team. Round of 16 should be like Olympic Hockey. Check your vitals!
But here's the rub. The 2 goals allowed by Ghana(especially the 2nd) resulted from horrid defensive plays from the Ghanian defenders.The first they don't clear the ball. On the winning goal, Ghana's goalkeeper makes arguably one of the worst plays in World Cup history. A fu__in gift. Should have just caught the ball. Oh well. Might not have mattered with the point differential and all.
So I guess we all need a little luck. Next up, Belgium!!!
