In the US, we say "The Yankees are winning. New York is winning" So, cities and countries are singular.

Awesome! Where will you be going? I studied in Germany for 2 years.

Since you ask, I'm assuming you are not an American. It's "Spain is..." It's like that in German, Dutch, Spanish, French, Portuguese... Only the Brits make it plural.

Same with using strange Brit verb conjugations: "Spain are..." Hate that.

The Aussies wanted that? Ha.

The games have all been starting at the same times so far. First one is at 12 PM EST, second at 3 PM, third at 6 PM.

Those little bodegas in NYC have lots of great butters, like Chimay and Président. Here in crappy Indiana, Kerrygold is the ONLY good butter option. I'd take advantage of where you live and try some of the others.

This guy especially. He likes to mention what team everyone plays for and even where they are from and what their nickname is. Which I suppose is good, but, because he speaks so fast and in a low voice, can be a bit hard to figure out...

Several people in another thread said this stuff is sorta normal in the modeling industry. The NYMag article said that his father's sessions always ended in sex, and that was decades ago.

In Spanish, or at least at Univision, they call it "extra time," "tiempo extra."

It was? Ok, I thought it was the same as I heard watching Univision. Guess I've heard too many...

It's fine, geez...

I missed the Japan goal just moving away from the tv for a few seconds. Thought it would just be a boring throw in.

Reinheitsgebot.

I was told a long time ago that Bud had rice in it. From Michael Jackson? Anyway, nice for it to be confirmed. No wonder it tastes like crap.

?? I'm talking about the call of the Mexican goal.

Except Univision isn't Mexican; it's American.

I did write a comment about where I saw that sentiment. Maybe you didn't see it due to Kinja strangeness...

Yes, they needed that goal! Though they should have gotten more against the Aussies, especially since they were basically playing at home.

I'm glad I'm not a Chile fan now. No bloodbath, and Aussies might tie it.
