Some thoughts on Day 2 of the World Cup

Cornrows? Seriously? Rio Ferdinand needs to stop it with the blow:



Speaking of Diego Maradona (zing!)... did you see him dancing up in the bleachers at the end of the Argentina-Ivory Coast game? His poor heart, that dilated cardiomyopathy will not last long if he keeps this up. The color commentary for that game was pathetic. Here's how it should have gone after Argentina had a handball in the first half:

Color guy: Ah, the Hand of God strikes again.
cut to Maradona sweating and gyrating
Color guy: He's about to give himself another heart attack.

Instead, after Drogba scored, the color guy notes that the game just turned around 360 degrees. Which, if you're keeping track at home, means that the game is right back where it started, motherfucker. Is it any wonder Americans don't watch soccer? Is it any wonder that I will do so poorly on this USMLE thing in 9 days that I'll be forced into American soccer commentary?
