    I didn't get to actually *see* Green's missed save until today. Hooooooo, did we get lucky there.

    Oh man, Willeth. I'm so lucky I don't owe you a map-pack.

    I don't know if anyone else has mentioned it yet, but FiveThirty Eight (of election prediction fame) has a pretty interesting "Simulated Odds" ranking on the side of their page for the World Cup. He just updated it for the results of the first two games.

    How is the crowd making the vuvuzela noise without the horns? My god, they don't need them anymore... they've adapted. We're doomed.

    Guy on Italy went to kick the ball back, guy on Portugal beat him to it so his leg just followed through and nearly scissor-kicked him.

    Eventually one of their players'll end up sliding into the goal in yet another diving attempt, and just accidently take the ball with him.
