As I've said before, I believe the US will win a World Cup before the much prophecised (and seemingly delayed) African breakthrough, but that doesn't mean that they're going to win of course. T

After the 2010 WC, I predicted that it would be Germany and Brazil in the finals of the 2014 WC. I haven't seen anything to make me think otherwise. FWIW, here are the groups. We definitely have the m

Neymar already has a yellow card and a goal in 30 minutes. Certainly sounds like Neymar.

Nice goal as well off the dribble.  Slick little elbow he threw. :)

Sigh.  Croatia is hanging pretty tough though, creating some chances here late.

Brazil can't be TOO happy about that win. Yah they got their 3 points, but.... I'd be hoping that was just opening game jitters. Not pretty and a bit lucky! I'm just glad Berman isn't announcing World Cup too.

What I noticed was the full backs for Brazil seemed to be jogging at times.  Bad form there fellas.  They need to treat every game as important.

One of the best teams at creating chances and one of the worst at converting those chances.

As opposed to Cameroon, who just looked bored for much of the match. This loss pretty much seals a group stage exit for them in a group with Brazil, Croatia, and Mexico.

Apparently FIFA rejected the colors of Spain (red) v Netherlands (orange). FIFA insisted Spain wear white and Netherlands blue, and Spain had difficulty making that work in short notice. Seems odd that isn't worked out well in advance.

http://www.footyheadlines.com/2014/05/new-white-spain-2014-world-cup-third.html?m=1 Looks like I misunderstood commentators on the timeframe of fifa's insistence. Spain had plenty of time to get white uniforms ready! Will be interesting to see rematch of 2010 final as the opening game in 2014.

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
