0h way ohhhhhh, Torn Slatterns and Nugget Ranchers.
A 95-year-old Arkansas man, Bud Jackson, set an age group record
in the 100 meter breast stroke in 3.16.56. This beats the 95-year-old-man
record of “Swimming 100 meters and not dying.”
A US student in Germany had to be helped by 22 emergency workers
after getting stuck in a giant vagina statue. Technically this is called:
Getting Kanye’d in the Kardashian.
I’m not sure all US sports fans get the World Cup; I heard one
say three of the best teams were the Netherlands, Holland and that really good
Dutch team.
In the World Cup you hate to accuse a team of flopping, but in
their loss to Brazil, Chile fell on their back faster than Paris Hilton in a
Learjet.
With their loss to Netherland, Mexico has advanced to the round
of 16 six times in a row and lost. Nobody has had more problems with something
that is 16 since, well, R. Kelly.
One of the World Cup discoveries has been the incredible
psychological benefit of the stadium camera. When turned on to fans of losing
teams, they go from abject sorrow to hysterical joy in seeing themselves on the
big screen in a split second.
Great World Cup for the US team. Now US sports fans can go back
to what we’re really good at: ignoring the hell out of soccer.

World Cup Review
Great
job, US team. We, meaning the US, are so proud. Great games, nobody, including
me, thought you would advance to 16. Gutty games. Most unappreciated player
ever? Michael Bradley.
Fact
is, the US was derailed by three hamstring pulls. Most importantly, Jozie
Altidore. He would have been the difference. With a healthy Jozie Altidore, the
US is a deserving quarter-final qualifier. Without him? They’re not.
Nobody
knows the potential for driving yourself insane by guessing “what if?” about a
bad hamstring injury than yours truly. So let’s not do that.
The
top eight teams of their groups advanced because they deserved to.
The
good news for the US? Tim Howard made 16
incredible saves.
The
bad news for the US? Tim Howard had to make 16 incredible saves.
