My point is, that unlike those thuggish underachievers at Old Trafford who crashed and burned in November (this is becoming a habit), Liverpool is still playing Champions League football for 2006. How sweet is that, mate?
They bent the rules for scum to even be in the competition so I expect they will continue to bend the rules to keep them in it….and how is it a habit when MANCHESTER UNITED have missed the knock out stage of the competition for the first time in 10 years at least!
Answer me this…if scum are not exempt from playing teams from the same country, then what happens to the team that they are drawn against? Aren't they supposed to be exempt from playing teams from the same country???? Mind you, Arseholes and Chelski are hardly Engish so it's irrelevant now the only real English team are out. Looking at the scum squad and manager they should be exempt from playing spanish teams really.

The first few days should be still be ok, but, suprsingly, not every US Soccer registered fan is going to get tickets. The announcement will come before the 14th so you can still try for FIFA tickets (good luck with that).
Let me know how you do…

I've been checking my email every 30 seconds all day waiting for some news. Today might be the least productive day at work ever.

Yep, Messenger dings and let me know when there is new mail. Everytime it dings, I look to see if it's US Soccer, but it hasn't been yet.

I got that previous email from US soccer about receiving an email today pretty late in the day, so I figure I'll have to be checking later tonight to see if I got tickets.

I got the email at 5:54 PM EST yesterday. I just looked at it again. It doesn't actually say we'll be finding out today, just "on or before January 14th". This is aggravating. My credit card hasn't been charged yet either. I'm not sure if that's a bad sign or not.

Nope.
But I did see that the Holland/Argentina game is not oversold on Fifa.com so I put myself in the lottery over there.
I also started to create a Google Earth file for the tourney, but
it was already done. It's sweet.

Right on!!! I'll share my intinerary as we get closer and get it all worked out. My brother in law hasn't heard yet, and his app was in much earlier then mine.
I also went over to fifa.com to see if I could score some lottery style tickets to other matches (England and Holland mostly). Just don't ask for more US tickets - you'll get bumped if you've already got tickets.
