Don't worry. There's still lots of news to follow. Such as:
- Leave it to the Germans to come up with a high-tech vuvuzela.
- Portugal star Ronaldo is going to be a father. The mother's out of the picture however, so this'll just feed the rumor mills further. That's him below, with and without a shirt.
- Brazil, which was knocked out of the tournament this past week, sacked its coach, Dunga.
- But that's a better outcome than Nigeria's team, which that country's government tried to ban from competitions for two years in punishment for not advancing out of the group round. Yes, that's as odd as it sounds; if your team didn't perform up to snuff in international competition, then what they probably need is more exposure to international competition, not sitting on the sidelines and aging. But then again I'm not a soccer/football genius like the folks running Nigeria.
- Hey, even that's better than what probably awaits the North Korean team. Luckily, they're healthy and athletic, so they should survive longer in the mines.
- Maybe they'll be able to get Justin Bieber's autograph on their lunch breaks.
- Leave it to the English to try to claim credit for Germany's success at the World Cup.
- But the Brits have a back-up plan: They still have a chance to be in the finals – as a referee.
- When all's well and done, it's all just good, fun sport, right? And if (when) the German Mannschaft wins this year, everyone had better be happy, because some Germans don't take kindly to soccer naysayers.
- And now the truth is known: The "magic snake" that controlled the destiny of World Cup teams has been taken into custody.
