A lot of goals for a big man.

I think he has the statue for it.

Was that intentional? If so I don't get it.

That's because he's very good and could score lots of goals because he links up well with Aaron Lennon and he doesn't panic in front of goal.

Well, he wouldn't if he's a statue, would he?

It's a nickname, I wouldn't take it so literally.

It's just that I thought you meant stature.

Either way, Crouch is a joke.

Really in the World Cup zone now. CBC have erected a big screen next to by office in the square next to Roy Thomson hall.

I just snuck out and watched the first half of SA-Mexico. Great Atmosphere out there.

Giovanni Dos Santos (Spurs player) has been excellent.

Sneaking off in another hour so I can go and watch France-Uruguay.

The World Cup has arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dos Santos was great. Mexico should be three up by now. Plus if Steven Pienaar is your best player I think you may struggle.

On another note the CBC analysis is just dreadful, they should stick talking about their crap sports and just put on the BBC or ITV feed.

It's a tale of two goalies all over again.

Mexico look exciting going forward.

Very soft defending on the corners though.

Thankfully I have not had to suffer any analysis. If it's anything like the analysis on Sportsnet it will not be any good.

I briefly got excited when on a build up show last night John Collins was in the studio. He was a good player and I hoped he'd be a well used member of their analysis team.

Goooooooooooaaaaaaallll !!

Totally against the run of play.

Given Canada's bi-lingual status why not show the games on TF1 from France. Would that make you happier?

No.
