Been a while....

ok, just to catch up since I've been gone....I'm older, fatter and have less tolerance for stupidity.

Just some notes on the world.

France is out of the World Cup....this alone brings a huge smile to my face

The U.S. is still in it with an actual chance of winning a group that includes England, and as we go deeper into the tournament, the games just keep getting better and better. I can't wait to see what happens.
