Who else here has started drinking? I’m finishing my first beer and it looks like I may have to down a second one soon.

I’m about to break out the half-bottle of Jagermeister my roommate’s sister left in the fridge, **brujo**. It’s the only alcohol in the house.

LOL, brujo if you’re gonna have a beer, I’ll get that 40 oz malt liquor outta my fridge and pour a glass with you. Just the one though, I gotta get my 3 hours of sleep and be back awake for US/Germany, whatever the outcome of this one.

I like the Coca Cola commercials here, which were hastily converted from all Spanish being shown on Univision so that ESPN could have them too when demographics showed people were actually watching the games…

Bobby-oriented storylines are the closest that show ever got to hiring Ted McGinley.

OK, fellow Anglophones, this is a beer drinking moment for you guys, so I’ll toss it back along with you. Keep up the hope, Beckham plays the free kick with the best of 'em. And speaking of Beckham, I’m sick of Tommy Smyth blaming all the goals on him.

I’m seeing that old Nayim joke being resurrected -

“Why do Brazilian footballers have big dicks? So they can lob Seaman from forty yards.”

RONALDINHO SENT OFF - looks like for catching Mills in the face with his arm. Looked accidental to me. Wow.

Even as an England fan, I think that was a poor decision. It didn’t look deliberate.

What’s with the time-wasting on the red card, don’t argue it, you were sent off, take it like a man.
