lol, you're totally whipped if you have to miss the final for some other people's kid's birthday.

I agree. Personally, I would figure out a way to get yourself sick or something the night beforehand if you are that whipped.

I can live without watching World Cup final as long as I can listen to radio.

Yes, I am from that far back.

Where's the party? Perhaps another dad will be interested (and also annoyed) and you can just turn the game on when you get there.

One of those kids party rental places. I have never been there so I don't know.

My company is having its annual picnic this Sunday, at the local amusement park. On the announcement they said they will be showing the game.

I was considering going, since it's free food and beer, but then I asked one of the organizers about the game and they said "yeah, we're going to stream it from online. I think there will be an internet connection available to do that."

So yeah, I'll be home watching on my couch. No way I'm taking that chance.

Hmmmm...maybe there's a "parental relief" bar where they'll have the game on. Or a TV in a corner or something.

...or who's your cell provider? I pretty sure it's airing on mobile ESPN.

I am in Toronto, Ontario. And I don't fancy watching game on phone either. Radio is better for me.

Why are you even on Anandtech???

Hookers can't get their cash this world cup! Poor business. People going for art and culture rather than hookers and blow. I'm actually pretty surprised by this...

Forlan has a chance here. Hopefully Butt is on game.

 

[Gooberlx2]

OH man! Freidrich (?) hits the crossbar off a header from a corner-kick.

 

[Gooberlx2]

Muller gets a goal on a rebound from Scweinsteigger's shot!

1-0 Germany

 

[Gooberlx2]

Haha....the crowd boos Suarez every time he's part of play.

 

[Gooberlx2]

Cavani equalizes for Uruguay on a break away and through-pass from Forlan.

1-1

 

[sunzt]

good game thus far.... Butt... hahahahahha oh man i'm juvenile

 

[Gooberlx2]

Ooh...weather looks pretty bad. Could make the pitch slippery and the ball skip around.

 

[Gooberlx2]

Wow, Suarez had a great chance and didn't finish it. The crowd is happy.

 

[Gooberlx2]

1-1 at half time. The weather is definitely affecting things.
