I have to admit I have got the fever on this World Cup series.  Even without the USA in the playoffs, the tournament has been exciting and I am cheering for the Netherlands to take all.  Germany and Spain look strong and the Vegas odds have Spain slightly favored.  The Netherlands play Uruguay today at 1:30 EST and Spain and Germany go at tomorrow 1:30 EST.  The finalist plays Sunday July 11th at 1:30 EST. 

Go Holland!
