JUNE 25TH

ENGLAND vs. ECUADOR

CHICAGO MARRIOTT 11AM

This could quite honestly be the most boring game of the tournament. I almost feel like I just wasted 2 hours of my life watching the game. England is simply the most over-rated team in the tournament and have been very fortunate to be still in the tournament after their performances. If in a tougher group, there is no way that the England team would still be in Germany. If not for Ashley Cole, England would be on their summer vacation right now. Anyway, there tournament will be ending soon as Holland (after they beat Portugal today) will give the England team a beating that they so deserve.

And if your wondering, Chicago has put us in an absolutely horrible hotel by Midway airport (sorry Marriott, nothing personal). In the good old days, they had us right off Michigan Ave. Now we are a stones throw from the airport with absolutely nothing around us. If there is one saving grace to this situation, it is knowing that in a couple of hours we will be playing in a sold out SOCCER SPECIFIC STADIUM. Finally some atmosphere at a soccer game.
