I don't think she's an a-hole...she is a bit out-spoken and opiniated. A little "over the top" at times. So? I'd be a hypocrite if I criticized her for that...
France is being given a free ride by FIFA. Twice in a row they were handed a "W" by the refs. Total BS! They aren't as good as they had appeared to be during the build-up to the WC Finals. What scares me though is just how big a screwing the US will get when we play 'em, and we don't have a GK who can deny the inevitable PKs coming.
Italy has been a surprise, they have a big game today vs. Brazil.
