I meant high diving but it was just a dumb joke. What I really meant was diving in the soccer sense -- receiving a minor bump and hurling oneself to the turf as though shot, trying to draw a foul.

>Puzzled. High Diving or Scuba Diving?

>>I have been watching a lot of the International Diving Competition on TV. You may also see it listed in your program guide as the FIFA World Cup.

>>The sad thing is one of the Laws of the Game specifies a card if you fake being fouled. Unfortunately it is almost never enforced. IMO that would clean up the big stain on what is indeed a beautiful game. This has been an entertaining tournament so far, a change of the guard in some respects. Some traditional powers and players have diminished while other teams and players have risen up.

>>My favorite sign of the tournament so far was held up by a Chilean fan at the conclusion of the Chile-Spain match. Spain was not only the defending World Cup champs, they have also won world championships and been ranked the #1 squad in the world for several years. For them to be eliminated in two games was nothing less than stunning. The sign: "Adios Espana."

>>Much more predictably, England was also eliminated in two games. Portugal, the #4 ranked team, nearly followed them before scoring a last minute goal tied the U.S. yesterday. They look like Christiano Ronaldo and a bunch of guys who were pulled off a bus.
