My nephew Benjamin in this photo pretty much sums up how I felt about the result of the US - Slovenia match.
It is always different watching a match live versus watching it on television. Perspective. You see things the viewer at home doesn't and the viewer at home sees things the fans in the stands don't. We in the stands, have a single perspective. You at home have a multitude of perspectives courtesy of some 25 cameras, plus replays, slow-motion, match commentators, etc. When you are down low, which I was this time, you can see how difficult and intense the game really is. This makes you appreciate all the more the teams and players that play it so well, that make it beautiful. I feel we were robbed when the 3rd goal was called back. I still haven't seen the replay. You tell me, all of you out there in TV-land.
We were robbed terribly robbed and the ref had no reason for making that call!
