Lame. Let me just say that United States television really dropped the ball today (no pun intended). Or maybe it was Comcast that was responsible. Anyhow, at 3pm today I turned on the tv to watch USA vs. Honduras. Well, it wasn't on Uni, nor Gala, nor Telem. So I thought, "Oh, it must be on an english station since the US is playing." NOPE. The United States was in a SEMIFINAL game of the the Gold Cup soccer, and it WASN'T TELEVISED. What the heck kind of place is this?!?! It's pretty easy to find D.C. United vs. Galaxy and non tournament games on a regular basis, but not a semifinal US NATIONAL game?!?!?! But, thanks to the CONCACAF website, I was able to read the play-by-play. I really thought the Catrachos were going to win, but the Gingos scored 2 in the last like 10 minutes. So it was a victoria Gringa. I'm not sure how I feel about the outcome of this game. In any other sport, I'd be hands down rooting for the US. But... we're just not a soccer country.
Well, I appologize for this blog being mostly Copa Oro stuff for the past several days. But honestly, that's about the most exciting thing in my life right now. Well, give me a couple weeks and moving out of the country will set in. I still feel like it's just a dream and that I'm not REALLY going. But I am! Yay!
I'm outie. Todavia les amo catrachos.
