Wow, a couple days off was really refreshing and restful. After two and a half weeks of games every day, it was nice to get a break.

We’re getting back to the games with a couple of potentially outstanding games, although there’s also the chance that these are both absolute stinkers — who knows, anything’s possible. Croatia vs. Brazil and the Netherlands vs. Argentina; it’s not really saying anything at this point to claim that we could see the ultimate winner advance to the Semifinals from this game, but it’s the case.
