There are only two things I really care about in the world of sports: soccer and the Steelers. So yesterday when the U.S. played like a high school rec team, and was embarassed by the Czech Republi,c I was a little upset. And when at halftime it was announced that the Steelers QB, Ben Roethlisberger, was in a motorcycle accident in which he wasn't wearing a helmet, I was really upset. I mean, this is the time of year in which I don't need to even think about the Steelers, and their QB has to go and nearly get himself killed during a U.S. match? Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez! As my sister said, "Ben, you wear a helmet for you JOB! You couldn't wear one when RIDING YOUR FREAKIN' MOTORCYCLE????"

At least South Korea won. I was a little nervous as I had to leave at halftime when they were down 1-0. I mean, they were playing Togo fer chrissakes! I'd have to have given my 'Be the Reds' shirt to Goodwill if they had lost.

It's finals week. This means I sleep little and spend the days procrastinating when I should be studying. It's all over Thursday, though! Then it's freeeeeeeeeedom! A few weeks of my first summer vacation in over five years!
