THE WEBLOG OF KEVIN C. MURPHY: CONJURING POLITICAL, CINEMATIC, AND CULTURAL ARCANA SINCE 1999

Viva Italia!

A belated congrats to Italy on winning the 2006 World Cup. I was rooting for France, and a PK shootout is a truly terrible way to choose the Cup champion, but -- after headbuttgate and the Baggio mishap in 1994 -- Italy seemed karmically due. At any rate, see y'all in 2010. And, now, alas, we've hit the sports dead zone until September...perhaps it's time to give MLS another go, what with Red Bull United now on the pitch... Update: Zidane speaks.

Hey, the sports dead zone doesn't start until the end of July, when the Tour ends!

I know they took off a couple of days after the allstar game, but looks to me like there's major league baseball every day from Friday to September... (Go Mets!)

Baseball in August? Bleah. (Unless I'm actually at the game, that is.)
