Perhaps I’ve never given it much attention, but this year’s World Cup seems to be more popular than ever. Our friend Rob had a gathering at his place on Saturday to watch the USA team’s first game against England. I’m sure most people watched the game, so I won’t given any recap or commentary. If we hadn’t watched the game at Rob’s, there was a large gathering of people in downtown Denver at the British Bulldog that some other friends were attending.  They had closed off a street and put up a huge screen for game watching.  I’m told that even despite the rain that there was a big crowd throughout the game.  I’m even finding myself tuning into games during my lunch break at work.  I haven’t started setting the DVR to record, but that still might be possible as the tournament moves forward.  I just might be catching this craze.

    It’s one hell of a craze to get into. If you haven’t seen Spain play yet, I highly recommend you dvr their match tomorrow against Switzerland. Team is loaded, and great to watch.

      I didn’t get to watch too much of that game, but I’m guessing that wasn’t what you expected from Spain.

        Not even close to what I was expecting, but it was an incredible game. I didn’t watch it live, and forget to set my tivo, but I caught the highlights and plan on watching the reply on espn later tonight.
