Yep. Not to mention I'm a selective futbol viewer and really don't follow much outside of just watching games. But you can bet your booty I love the world cup. Exciting stuff.

I bet the 2pm game is just as good. I have to hurry to watch that 2pm game because I'm about to hit the streets/trails and test out my new mountain bike!

You watching the 2pm game?

No I only watch the Aussie games and highlights. I’ll watch the final though

I'm gonna miss the 2 PM game, too much stuff to do and only have the weekends to do it. Time difference is less than ideal for this WC

I know man. I woke up today... well I didn't really sleep more than a wink, at 8 and watched the 10am game and it just feels off. It is an un-natural feeling and my body and mind are fighting it as if I should be doing something else.

Yeah, today I rode my new mountain bike, which is so dang amazing and smooth, and jumped in the kiddie pool because it is so dang hot, which was pretty annoying, it's like a bath outside and my neighbors were talking to me it was pretty awkward.

Now I'm sunburned and have to visit my ill relative and spend the night there with wifey, daughter, and german shepherd.

Last time I remember watching games early like this was the Sochi olympic hockey games. I believe they were early as well.

Can't believe the ref didn't card Suarez for his theatrics. He was diving every time someone breathed on him. Such a disgrace.

Kudos to that ref though. He called the game the way it should be called. No whistles for light fouls, no giving in to obvious dives, playing on through contact. Really created a physical game which was thoroughly entertaining. Reminded me of how the EPL was played in the past.

A good match between Spain - Russia to hold me over until the craziness of 01 July begins

Oh man. Spain v Russian is going into overtime! Or extra-time. Whatever futbol calls it.

I had the impression Malkin and Ovechkin didn't really get along
I’m pretty sure they have always been buds. I remember analysts talking about how interesting it was that OV would try to run Geno during NHL games, due to their friendship.

Lebron to the Lakers.

And i thought the man couldn't do more to have people hate him.

Unjustifiably or Not.
