Nothing's going the Dutch way today.

I didn't think the handball was in the box.

In off the post.

ESP 1-0

Testing a hypothesis against absurdity...

But isn't the elbow of the defender playing the ankle of the attacker onside?

It's as if there is no technology but a graphic designer frantically drawing up the desired outcome on his laptop.

"A very dominant display from Portugal."

For the first time in this tournament I think the team in the lead has scored less goals [2] than the Expected Goals [2.75] says they should have.

So. if ENG is the better team - the odds say so and they are the tournament favourites - why aren't they demolishing their opponents like the NED, JPN and ESP teams do?

I know the answer. Just curious.

Our commentator just said, "Two-nil is the most dangerous lead in Football."

Maybe in American Football after a Safety or Canadian Football after a couple of Rouges.

I thought he was quite good until then.

Don’t kill the messenger. This #USWNT is polarizing. Politics, causes, stances, & behavior have made this team unlikeable to a portion of America. This team has built its brand and has derived its power from being the best/winning. If that goes away they risk becoming irrelevant.

VAR check.

"Is she interfering?"

She's standing in front of goal and the ball almost hit her for crying out loud.

But they give it anyway.

About half of the SEC fanbases will almost certainly never see their team win the conference, and yet they root every year. It's the nature of fandom.

Fans will never stop believing in their teams. It is the nature of fandom. Look at my timeline from Friday where Ole Miss fans seriously believed their players belonged on the same field as Georgia.

Fan self-awareness is not a thing.

I think I'll just look at score updates from now on ...

1st & Goal at COLO 2
(0:57 - 2nd) Cameron Ward run for 2 yds for a TD (Dean Janikowski KICK)

It's 12:20am in NY.

At times like this I am turning into a fan of the 10pm curfew at Wimbledon.

Kids can't watch this. People with early starts for their jobs can't watch this.

I know this isn't the case in SF - but it still doesn't make much sense to me.

NBA star Draymond Green was disciplined by the league for putting Wolves Center Rudy Gobert in a headlock during an on-court fracas earlier this week. So why does it feel like Joe Biden is the one serving a five-game suspension?
