I am watching the World Cup.

A favorite American heckle about soccer is the excitement generated from a 0-0 tie but this morning Trinidad and Tobago tied Sweden at zero and it was exciting. The hero of the game was T and T goalie Shaka Hislop. He was not even supposed to start the game but came through huge.

Sweden and its fans looked devastated and the T and T squad was jubilant.

Do you know about the Ivory Coast story? The country is at civil war but they have suspended the fighting for the tournament. Maybe they can decide to stop altogether.
