Cops and Robbers

We just got robbed.  Not at gunpoint, but with a whistle.  Who didn't watch the World Cup (or at least Sportscenter for the highlights)?  

Well, if you didn't watch it, here's a recap . . . . .and a kick to the baby-maker.  Way to be un-American.

We were down 0-2 going into the second half.  We scored 2 goals to tie the game and with about six minutes left, scored again.  Except this guy in the yellow shirt below, screwed the pooch.  Right in the pooper.  
I'm not whining.  That's what the rest of the world is going to say about this when they hear anyone from the U.S. say anything about this play.  But com'n. . . .even the most inept sports fan can see that the ref stuck his hand in our pocket, fiddled with our junk, and then left with our wallets.  

The only thing giving us hope is that the epidemic of bad teeth finally caught up with England and they weren't able to beat Algeria.  So . . .a win against Algeria for the U.S. puts us through to the next round.  

If this were another country, the ref would already be dead . . . . . or in a barn somewhere being forced to watch re-runs of That's So Raven.  

I win.
mr. overly competitive
