Primetime Footie

So tonight, England takes on Sweden! Evidently (I hear tell), England has not beaten Sweden in a World Cup game since 1960-something... and that's A-ok by most England fans. The English have not been playing well, and if they lose tonight, they will play Ecuador in Round 2, rather than Germany. And I think the general feeling is that the way England has been playing, their fans would rather they not have to take on Germany just yet.

Tomorrow, the US will play Ghana. It's an afternoon game, so it will most likely be just about over by the time I get to leave the hospital, but I so hope they win! I'd love for them to squeak on through to the next round...if they continue to play as they did against Italy, they could be a real threat.
