    Hope a couple people are watching - France vs Uruguay going now. France just got one - beautiful header off a free kick. Those who think this sport is boring should watch for once.
    You want boring - watch a 1-0 baseball game, or a 7-3 football game.

    The header was actually off a Uruguayan player. Right after that France's goalie probably had the save of the match.

    France wins 2-0 and goes to the semis. That was a good match. Uruguay had its chances, just couldn't get the job done.
    Next match should be good also - Brazil-Belgium. Hope Neymar gets a red card or breaks his leg.

    you're right......great game!

    Dave is right, down there, with his comments about Soccer. Someone once said that Combat was days of drudgery spiced with moments of sheer terror......that's kind of how it goes with fussball......but he is wrong about baseball. I really like MLB......i'd like it better if they'd put houston and dallas in separate leagues......even though the rangers have prob'ly already blown it for this year.....mac

    Look again, Fred. The French player hit it before the other guy could get to it.
    The ref turned a blind eye to numerous French holds, even in the box. Ray Charles could have seen some of those fouls.

    Don't get me wrong, Mac. I like baseball - just gets too slow and long sometimes. Followed a game on the internet the other day and it took nearly four hours to play. No rainouts, just slow moving.

    yeow, i know, bugs the hell out of me too but i s'pect you'll agree that it's better than it was 6 or 10 years ago. we need to go back to the 7th inning stretch and that's it, let the networks put their stuff when they want to........mac

    Belgium has Brazil's number and is leading 2-0 in the 70th minute. The ref isn't buying Neymar's frequent flops and theatrics.
