my teams

At the risk of boring Alyssa to tears...

The US soccer team lost to Ghana, so the Americans are out of the World Cup. Ghana advances, though -- the first non-Europe/Latin-American team to do so. Australia and Korea both have good chances to advance, also, but they're not in yet.

That would mean three of the original twelve non-Europe/Latin-American teams advanced to the second round, and thirteen of the original twenty Europe/Latin-American teams. 25% to 65%. Hmmm... Where do you think the good teams are?

Over in Omaha yesterday, Rice lost to Oregon State. They play again tonight to decide who gets to face North Carolina in the championship. GO OWLS!!!

Australia tied Croatia, so that's good enough for the Aussies to advance. They'll play Italy. Ghana will play Brazil. Good luck to them!

I think it over. I think OreSt beat Rice 2-0. Two games in two days, and no runs scored by Rice. Sorry.
