World Cup, I'm trying...

Dear World Cup,

Okay, I'm really not try to be a curmudgeon here... I tried to like you, but alas I can't figure out your mysterious ways. I'm not an angry redneck that thinks you are a wussy sport. Having videotaped a large number of NCAA games from the sidelines, I can verify it's rough stuff. I know that soccer is finally a sport to be reckoned with in the USA. After all, the largest amount of folks that travelled to South Africa to see you are Americans. I know you are the world's game and all that shizznitt...

I just can't figure anything out. I watched a good portion of the UK/US match (on mute, what's up with the fuckin' horns?) and was dismayed to see that ties are okay in Soccer, and that each team was awarded a point for trying... That's idiotic. That's a participation medal.

So obviously, you are some weird ass round robin thing. So, I went to the interweb to get some answers. Googling World Cup Bracket got me this nonsense. Is somebody winning? What's going on here?

You make me feel like I'm in 6th grade again, watching all the other kids breakdance... please slow down a little and show me a move... I can Pop, I can do the worm, just give me a chance...

I give up. Lemme know when the US is on again. I'll try to figure it out then...

Your Wannabe admirer,

Sixty Six
