He asks me for my opinion?!

Top 3 Disappointments:

United States - despicable. That new Joga Bonita where they say "America, the world no longer looks forward to playing you" seems to be a bit premature...
England - BOOORING, only a LUCKY own goal saved their bacon from a horrendous draw.
The Dutch - never fail to come into the World Cup with hype and fall flat on their East-West passing asses.

I would not call the Brazilians a disappointment so far. Everyone KNOWS they cruise through the initial round robin, loafing around, doing just what they need to do to advance...then BAM, they come to life with a vengeance during the Medal round. The sleeping giant is still snoozing.

Top 3 Surprises

Socceroos mate! Put another shrimp on the barbie, and another shot in the net!
Ecuador - not sure if this is a BIG surprise against Poland, but still, I'd go with it.
T&T - my new George Mason pick. I love those guys! And even though they drew against a still standing Swedish team, they still have more points then the US.

Other news...

Ben Roethlisberger - just proves that you don't have to be smart to be a good quarterback. My vote for idiot of the week! Then again, maybe Peyton Manning should look into riding a 2 wheeler.

'Canes one win from the Stanley Cup. It's been a great series, and I hate to see the Oilers lose because I'm a fan, but tonight could be an exciting night in the Thew household, and not only because it's time for my monthly nookie with the wife!

Will Roger Federer EVERER beat Rafael Nadal? 1-7 versus the clay court specialist. BLEAH...

By the way, Tilam's O is never H...
