Al and Peggy,

Uruguay 2 - Korea Republic 1 (It was a great game to watch)

Getting ready to watch the USA vs. Ghana match.   They got USA ranked 13th and Ghana 33rd in the world but for this match, Ghana is said to be the 51.3% favorite because of "home-continent" advantage.

Hey guys, today will be a great test for the USA, underdogs again and maybe having to play through some additional phantom calls and fouls.

Oh thanks Gerry, didn't get a chance to watch it except for last four minutes.......yes, USA and Ghana will be a match to see!

We heard it was pouring rain for the Korea/Uruguay match, so add that into the USA/Ghana match and they have it rough. Let's see how it plays out today Ed~ Go USA!

Al and Peggy well one of my teams got knocked out today, Ghana beat the U.S 2-1.  The U.S. had plenty of chance to win but could not put the ball in the net.  It was a good game but I have to admit Ghana out played the U.S.

Its sad that US does not move on George, but at the same time they did well, the 'breaks' were against them for sure.  Go Portugal Go!
