world cup. :(

disappointing performance by the u.s. team. we ended up scoring once, but ghana got two. the commentators here were really irritating. they sounded almost joyful when they said "the u.s. hopes have been dashed." in all the games the commentators sounded anti-u.s. i wasn't a fan of them in the olympics, as they were way too PRO-U.S., but this has been the extreme opposite. hats off to ghana, though. there's a lot of racial discrimination in soccer, which is unforgivable in this day and age, so i hope ghana's successful performance can help abolish such attitudes and behaviors.
