I've noticed the advertising. Plus, it seems ESPN has reported more soccer news on 'Sportscenter' in the past year than ever before. I wonder if it'll continue after the World Cup?

blackhawkrush Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 England's captain, Rio Ferdinand out of the World Cup. Ivory Coast's Drogba broke his arm but I guess he could play just like Lineker did in 1986 in Mexico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkrush Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 First games tomorrow. Mexico takes on South Africa. A tricky match for the Mexicans because we all know how much help the host nation gets from different sources at this type of event. Mexico can feel confident however, after beating Italy a few days ago 2-1. In the second game, France faces Uruguay. The roosters must be considered favorites although not in Irish pubs. 12 hours and 47 minutes to first kick off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmotionDetector Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 South Africa vs Mexico currently underway! I am cheering for South Africa, but judging by some of their defensive blunders, it might not be long before Mexico gets on the board. (BTW...I dunno if everyone can get them, but for sure in Canada, you can go to www.cbc.ca, and click on the live stream link to watch the games LIVE on your PC!)

The announcers were putting me asleep too, where's the guy with the long goooooaaaaallllll call? They need to pump up the action like they do in hockey keeps you glued to the game.
