3:33 pm: And we're back with a flourish! I didn't even have time to stretch my tired fingers.
3:34 pm: Right off the bat, the U.S. had two nice scoring chances. I'll let you guess how they turned out.
3:35 pm: This move to Univision may be working against me. However, I do have whistle to
3:38 pm: Both teams doing their best to wear out the wall...behind the goal. This ain't Rock n Jock, kids!
3:39 pm: Hate to wonder this, but: is Landon Donovan thinking that he may want to become a citizen of Brazil? Just so, you know, he could be on a team of good players?
3:42 pm: Hey now Prince, your neck tattoo doesn't give you the right to just taunt! OK, maybe it does.
3:45 pm: The officials must be choking at this point since they've been clearly swallowing their whistles.
3:46 pm: You know it's a foul when both Univision guys are like: "Aiye yie yie!" when viewing the replay.
3:48 pm: Penalty kick by Landon Donovan for the GOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLL. Finally got to blow the whistle! And WE ARE TIED.
3:51 pm: I'm going to rate that GOOOOOOLLLL call at an 8 on the just created Catch Phrase scale. 1 is Joe Buck. Ten is Gus Johnson. Usually, the Univision guys are averaging about a 12.
3:54 pm: Tim Howard is good for something, it seems. And Clint Dempsey has turned into Anderson Varajeo.
3:56 pm: Richard Kingson must have read my dig at him for not being able to build harpsichords by hand. The guy has been great.
3:57 pm: Commentary from the girlfriend: the players have four shadows on the field! And she is RIGHT.
4:02 pm: I know you want to get every shot of the action Univision, but I'd rather not see a close up of Kevin Prince Boateng's thigh.
4:08 pm: It seems like EVERYTHING has a microphone on it here. I'm surprised I haven't heard a fart on TV yet.
4:12 pm: Seems like Jozy Altidore has been near the ball and goal all game. I need a magical moment from an AFRICAN AMERICAN in this World Cup!
4:15 pm: Things that would be cool: Tim Howard dropping the People's Elbow on the Ghana guy lying on the ground.
4:17 pm: It's kind of sad to think about how much I enjoyed viewing that link.
4:22 pm: Of course, this game goes into overtime. This means FREE BLOG EN VIVO for you!!
4:24 pm: While this game has been...entertaining(?), this really has nothing on Mexico-Argentina and Portugal-Spain. Well, at least that's what Univision will have you think.
4:26 pm: I would explain the OT rules here, but uh, I have no clue what they are.
4:28 pm: GOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLL by Ghana. And hands down, the best celebration dance I have ever seen. So it was worth it!
4:32 pm: So this is the largest sporting even in the world, and they can't get a real stretcher if necessary?
4:36 pm: Well, while most people may stop caring about soccer after this, I vow to still blog EN VIVO until this bad boy is over.
4:42 pm: So there's another OT period???? These guys are wearing me out.
4:46 pm: Man of the Match: Richard Kingson. Pretty sure that's got to be the consensus.
4:48 pm: Commentary from the dog: "Is it time for dinner yet?"
4:51 pm: While most of Twitter is complaining of the Ghana players "stalling," I'm sure none of them had a problem with the USA stalling big time after scoring the goal against Algeria.
4:52 pm: But hey, we can do what we want and blame somebody else later...right?
4:54 pm: Well I suppose if ever there was a time for a magical moment, now would be it.
5:00 pm: Hard for me to to blog EN VIVO while sobbing at the same time. Wait a minute...
5:01 pm: So that's it. They're exchanging shirts, and Ghana WINS 2-1. Thanks for reading, folks.
