Which quarterback has the best arm? I'm not familiar with either team. Is this the game where they have the "silly midden"?

And I´m pulling for GERMANY because a) I´m German and b) the party shall go on. The atmosphere is so great and positive, that cannot be over today. By the way, the German team has impressed during this tournament - unlike Argentina, which had a good start, but a tie against the Netherlands and after 90 minutes against Mexico aren´t persuasive.

"Your a sports fan." True
"It's the greatest sporting event on the planet." Largest doesn't mean greatest.
"You're tired of re-watching old NFL tapes." Never watched them.

My son and I tried out the new seamless ball tonight for the first time. I was in goal and he would shoot.
Holly buckets. He made it spin in any direction he wanted. He made it knuckle.
This ball is scary. No wonder kickers love it and goalies don't.
But at about $130 each I will no be ordering it for the Club his year.
It is truly seamless.

Rooting for Germany, mostly because I really want to see a germany-england final.
Now there's fun!

Didn't the Germans look great in the first half against Sweden? They've got two great finishers up front and a solid captain in Ballack. If England don't go all the way, I'm pulling for Germany.

The big red dodge ball was seamless, and I'm pretty sure it was less than $5. I'm sure Americans can make one of those soccer balls cheaper.
