Today the Argentines played the most beautiful foot-ball of any team in Emperor Wilhelm’s World Cup. The passes and finishing were wonderful. The touchdown they put on Serbia & Montenegro was better than anything my beloved Vikings did all last season.

Best Game: Argentina v. Serbia & Montenegro. Sure it was a blow out, but who cares? Sublime stuff. Evita would be proud.

Best ESPN Factoid: “Pretty boy” in Portuguese is pronounced “Marcelo Balboa.”

Best face paint:

The Final Whistle:
Shep Messing in the 84” after Carlos Teverz put Argentina up 5 - nil.
“Wow! He’s so strong! Like a little fire hydrant!”

Yeah. I don’t know either. Even Gertrude was at a loss.

Overall Hasselhoff Rating for the Day: (out of 5)
