May I just say that I really appreciate this thread!? I don't watch all matches so it's great to be able to know what's going on through the thread! Thumbs up unclesox!

Yeah, it's great that you doo all that for us. It must be exhausting, though. And if you're in California at what times do the games begin there? Probably late at night?

i'd like to say i'm glad i was way off on this....i cried for sanchez man oh man don't know what i was thinking when i guessed this one backwards but i say what a great game and glad Mexico won,,,plus what a nice gesture it was for Iran to present flowers to Sanchez....it's on the football field where there is hope for momentary peace it seems....these have been most exciting games. i can't always watch the games and count on UncleSox for these updates he is doing a fantastic job too....i love the tshirts icons in the finals etc. very professional you think about doing sportscasting??? anyways thank you.

Thanks to everyone for the comments. Doing this helps me to learn about some players that I normally would've never heard about. I do this stuff on a "sawker" message board but only for Barcelona games, so three games a day is a bit rough. The end of the first round will REALLY be challenging because there will be simultaneous matches going for four straight days. So we'll see how long I can last as there won't be an off day at the tournament until Wednesday 28 June. WAIT! JUNE 28th?!

After Saturday's goalless draw that Trinidad and Tobago managed to gain with Sweden, I took the form book and locked it away in my desk drawer. If Angola gain a result against Portugal, I'll flush that damn thing down the toilet. Then again, many of Angola's squad plays their league football in Portugal. Similar situation as Senegal against France in 2002.
