World Cup

Germany lost today, 1:0 against Spain. That is somewhat unfortunate, as Germany provides me the only thing worthwhile about the sport. However, this afternoon I noted that the fans of the sport were out in force again. Comments were generally along the lines of “THIS WAS THE WORST GAME EVER!” “&&(*&@(*!)@*#)@” This has led me [...]

Football

I noted today that Ghana dispatched the United States in football, 2:1. As an American, I take this as a good thing. The reason being that football is a boring, European endeavor, and our own baseball, on life support thanks to an imbecilic commissioner, has no need of further competition.

The Week That Was

This post shall dwell on three points of interest from this past week; one from television, one from world news, and one from sports.

Olympic Gold Medal Round

I actually ended up watching the last three minutes of regulation and all of the overtime portion of the Men’s Hockey tournament. My love of hockey overcame my lack of interest in the Olympics. I will have it noted though, that I can’t stand Sidney Crosby. While he may have scored the winning goal, it [...]

Statistics

Today I was glancing over the static of how many people had visited this site. I noted that it had increased each month over the past three months, and that there were 15 visitors this past week alone. However, I suspect that if one were to take away my own visits, the number would probably [...]
