USA vs. Brasil

I have been watching futbol since Paolo Rossi's romp in the sands of Spain during the 1982 World Cup. My next door neighbors were from Italy and it was exciting to see the passion behind a game that was foreign to most Americans.

Team USA has been slowly making progress ever since.

The dramatic 2-0 blanking of Spain in the semifinals has been cited as a critical moment in the team's history. Can they possibly beat Brazil tomorrow in South Africa?

I hope to some day attend a World Cup myself. Futbol is not America's game, but it is mine all the same.

Back In Black

I took a vacation from this blog. No compelling reason other than that my Dell computer died and I got busy at work.

These things happen. A lot of things happen in life.

I am back in the blogosphere for the nobodies that don't care judging by my site meter. That being said, no one reads anymore and if you don't believe me you should check out the incredible shrinking content and rising price of the New York Times.
