World Cup Coverage: The TV has been approved!

The TV has been approved! It took me a while, but the boss finally gave us permission to have a TV in the office to watch the high profile games. That will mean that I can update my blogs live! And the TV will be in my office.

So here is the plan: Everybody wheel their chairs in to the office while I sit with my notebook on my lap and type the highlights up. I will update the posts after every half. I will report on the guys in the office's view of the game: play by play. An added feature will be the comments of the guys in the office. I know that a big portion of the company is patriotic Spangled Banner fans, leaving the rest to spread around European, South American and African fans... and let us not forget about our one lone Japanese supporter! It will be so cool.

I'll be the first to admit that I go 'boiling' when I'm looking forward to a Teevo'ed game that I have not yet watched and some smuck goes and tell me the score. Hence the big rally by theguys to get the TV. If you do not believe that English soccer hooliganism exists; you should have seen the English supporters in this office: They were ready with a revolt if we did not get the TV!

Alls well that ends well, right? The countdown is on: 8 days to go...
