>Togo was slaughtered by the referee against Switzerland. Blatter's team is awating the next victim. Referees paws off.

I'm glad Togo at least showed up for the game. There were news reports in the U.S. that they weren't going to.

The African teams have done well, don't you think? There were a lot of raised eyebrows when four of them made the field but any concerns have been put to rest. Ghana knocked off the Czechs, and Angola and the Ivory Coast have played competitively against tough opponents.
