Argh, so tired.
Womens World Cup (WWC) is currently going in China, and we stayed up until after 4 am this morning watching games broadcast live.
High point: watching the German team set a new WWC record by scoring a high of 11 points against Argentina in the opening game. 11 points!! (Sure, that meant that Paul and I lost a bet to John on how many goals would be scored overall, but what a wild game.) That kind of thing just doesn't happen in soccer often, so it was a fascinating cringe-fest, especially since the Argentine goalie was solely responsible for two of those goals.
She had a bad, bad night.
Low point: Watching the US women play to a 2-2 tie against North Korea; Since when did DPRK have enough food to feed 20 women to play a sport, and how did they get them to play so well? Here's hoping the US team is able to pick it up in later games.
Either way, our neighbors must wonder what we're cheering about so loudly at 3 am. Yeah, we're THOSE people.
Finals on September 30th. Games on espn and CBC... possibly other channels that I don't know about.
