Hey FIFA! Wanna give somebody a drug test? I mean besides SEVEN Costa Ricans for playing a hard game.

Give one to this guy, Arjen Robben, #11 for the Netherland World Cup team.

He was the only player on the Netherlands who was doing anything at all. He was in the center of every play, running around like a manic maniac.

Before the game, he got a warning about being too dramatic, which is saying a lot, considering that football players are probably the most dramatic athletes in the world.

The goalie for Costa Rica got poked in the eye, about two minutes before the shootout, somebody should have gotten a red card for that. Other than that, I gotta say the refs did a pretty fair job.

Sadly, Costa Rica is out, But they went further than ever before, against insurmountable odds.

Here, Monday is Constitution Day, the holiday day off.

Good luck to those experiencing Hurricane Arthur.

Have a good weekend all!

Yesterday, while I was working, I simultaneously was uploading my pictures to Dropbox. I got a start, less than half of my 2014 photos.

The only problem, is the icons are too small for me to see the photos, as you can see above. Other than that, it works great.

Random photos from Dropbox. Testing! Testing!

Have a good day!

It’s Wednesday, No football today. Sorry USA is out of it. I got home from work and turned the TV (with rabbit ears) on and the game was over.

I heard but haven’t read, that FIFA took away all seven yellow cards Costa  Rica got from the Greek match. Someone at FIFA  must have read my blog! 😉

Nothing to post about today. I need to make an adjustment. All my photos go on my laptop, which I seldom use any more. This makes it difficult to access them to post them here….

I guess I’ll back them up on Dropbox or Google  Drive or MSN’s OneDrive…. I also have Photo Bucket, but I’m not sure the photos would be  private there.

Have a good day!

Every game now, the refs seem to be steering the match. Yesterday, Nigeria scored first against France, but the refs took the goal away, calling “off sides”. I received a phone call about it as soon as it happened, but didn’t see it as I was working. The BBC mentioned it this morning, and the announcer said the goal “looked fine to him.”

Sure, refs are human and make mistakes, but show me any game in the World Cup where the ref has “made a mistake” against the larger, richer country, or any game where they’ve made two “mistakes” that harmed each team. No, to me it is blatant, and the errors always favor one of the two teams repeatedly. Non existent penalties against one team, and ignoring blatant penalties against the other.

The voices of those who see it are getting louder.
