(World Cup)
We need more Americans in China! I checked all the sports bars, but found only the England game being shown, so I negotiated with our apartment clubhouse to watch the USA game on their big TV. In hind-sight I should’ve squatted my spot to hold the reservation, but there were no lights on and no people with only 15 min until kickoff. I ran back home to grab Rachel, my USA jersey, and to try to drum up a crowd but in the 10 min I was gone 1 English guy and his Canadian buddy changedthr channel. After some frustration and a lot of striking out I managed to stream the game at home… It was a tense one, and we almost got robbed by reffing AGAIN, but in the end we won our group and will advance to play the 2nd place people from group D (being played in a couple hours – likely to be Serbia)
Whew, time for Bed.
*Update* – I guess Australia pulled a fast one on Serbia. Bring it on Ghana! I won’t be blogging about the whole world cup, but I was a bit exasperated trying to find a place to watch it and then we won dramatically at the last second! All those reffing errors wiped clean, time to move forward.
