MIKE: "landon donovan and i are dating. no big deal."
I don't know where to even look for words at this moment. I really don't. I was at gym so I didn't get to see the game, but Andres and I kept tabs on it inbetween his breaths of death (having just ran the 400 (the dumb dumb sprinted the whole thing)). I swear, I really didn't think we had it. We both said that the US have a thing for scoring in the second half and I mentioned how I pray every game we are losing is like the Costa Rica game. But this time, I thought the worse, and when my phone said 89th minute and 0-0 still, I gave up hope that we would advance. But as I went to check the England game out and what the final was for that, every word I had said to Andres just moments before, "We're no making it," suddenly became on huge lie. We pulled off another Costa Rica, but this time, bigger. I still haven't seen the goal, but I've already been shaking and crying because of how happy I am. I didn't think we could pull of a miracle like that, but we did. So not only did we win our game, advance to the knockout round, be we also won the group. Suck on that England and everyone else who said we wouldn't do that.
Now someone better make some killer icons of the goal celebration and win. And I will go take a shower now.
