More Disappointment For Me!

First my Italians go out yesterday.  Then the Ivory Coast gets knocked out today.  Yeah, they won the game and scored 3 goals.  But it wasn't enough.  You see, because of that super exciting Portugal/N.Korea game, Ivory Coast would have needed to score NINE goals to advance.  I thought it was cool when Portugal scored 7 goals against N. Korea.  Now I don't love it so much.  Oh, and Portugal would have had to lose against Brazil, too.  But NINE goals?  That would have been amazing.  It didn't happen.  And Portugal didn't lose anyway.  I won't even talk about that game.  A 0-0 draw isn't worth my time! ;)

So farewell to my beloved striker, Didier Drogba.  The World Cup will not be as exciting for me now.  :(  Ya know, Blake is cheering for Spain and has been before this all began.  Maybe I'll jump on that bandwagon!  Spain looked okay to me today!  Check out this amazing goal by David Villa!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMr1gr9z9S8

Looking ahead:  USA plays tomorrow.  England plays Sunday.  If anyone reveals scores to me before I have watched them on the DVR, I will be very upset!  ;)  Just kidding.  But seriously......don't do it!

For now, goodbye to Didier.  Goodbye to the Toure brothers.  Goodbye to North Korea.  Goodbye Honduras.

P.S.  I also didn't talk about the Switzerland/Honduras game.  Why?  It was also a 0-0 draw.



Ivory Coast brothers, Kolo and Yaya Toure

Oh, I hate seeing grown men cry. So hard watching the teams get sent home.

They would never admit it, but it appeared that Portugal and Brazil weren't trying too hard. What a snoozer of a game!

I wouldn't dream of telling you the score in advance. I'd better stay away from Facebook.
