    As Drogba would say, that banner situation is a f*cking disgrace.
    Regarding that Japan picture, I distinctly remember someone on ESPN saying they were dressed up as condoms. And maybe it was McManaman who pointed out that Japan’s flag was white with a red dot on it, and that’s what they were probably dressed as.
    At least The Sun let y’all be Portugal. Forca Ronaldo.

    Actually, I think the japan comment was on the guardian podcast. Still funny though

    I’m assuming UF somehow cheated re the Sun blog sweepstakes. Cheating bunch of cheating McCheaters.

    The fact that Peter Crouch doesn’t weigh 200 lbs. is just crazy. What a lanky bastard.

    UF friends,

    I’m headed to NYC this weekend for a wedding (leaving behind my hometown of San Francisco) and I’m trying to find some place in the midtown region to watch USMNT on Friday morning. There have got to be a million options, but does anyone have any suggestions? Any sort of UF get together encore in the works?

    Did they rank the blogs accordingly with who they are in the groups? If so, nice job.

    @GeneralGametime
    Try Stout (W. 33rd St btwn 6th and 7th), though your best bet is probably the place I used to go for CL midweek games as it was near my office: The Playwright Tavern (W. 49th St btwn Broadway and 7th Avenue).

    Playwright Tavern will do you right, guaranteed.
