It is over – after 3 weeks (really 4 years) of soccer futbol the World Cup goes to SPAIN.
[I must confess – I wrote this 1/2 hour before the world cup started, intending to keep it draft until after the game, and then publish with the correct country as the winner. Turns out I can’t remember my ideas in the few minutes it took to write it – so I posted it right away. It also turns out that I am prescient.]

What a ride. It is fun and we are committed. Maybe it seems more heightened because this is the time we get cable TV, just so we can watch the games. We generally get rid of cable at the end of the summer. So it makes it that much more special.

So what do we do now?

Well there is the Baseball All-Star Game on Tuesday.

And we have cable TV this year so we can also watch the other bits that accompany the game itself – especially the Home Run Derby. I think the appreciation for this comes from sitting in the outfield. If you are in the outfield for the derby – it is a blast. Just a party with possible prizes flying at you through the air.
