until I started watching this world cup. A lot of notions, like 90 minutes is too long (I am used to American football- 90 minutes of that would last 5 hours). I still don't like the fact that the players will flop like they were just punched by Mike Tyson, but I have been entertained. I just finished up the Netherlands/Costa Rica match and thoroughly enjoyed it. I was pulling for the Dutch, as I used to work for a Dutch company. I will watch their next match, too. I must be morally decaying.
