If you're actually watching the game? I'd recommend raw ether.

Alomo Bitters: a herbal alcoholic drink changes the marketOne spirit category, bitters, performed extremely well over the latter part of the review period, due to the sudden popularity of a herbal bitters brand, Alomo Bitters, which only began to be produced in Nigeria in 2010. The product witnessed a phenomenal increase in popularity as herbal bitters products are thought to have medicinal benefits, including virility in men. They are widely consumed, with the non-alcoholic beer Fayrouz being a popular mixer. They are also quite inexpensive compared to normal spirits, being packaged in plastic bottles. Their sales are another factor for why lager sales were poor in 2012, as some lager drinkers moved to drinking herbal bitters mixed with non-alcoholic beer.

I want 6!

This really couldn't have gone any better for the US. Totally set up to get through with 4 points on GD. They got to do it tonight

I am thinking this will be the first game I don't watch, at least in entirety.

Already too nervous for the US game.

I don't think he intended to headbutt him as much as get in his face and talk #### about it.

This is like saying Hitler accidentally killed some Jews.

Lol, what?

 

[Celph Titled]

Does Gator get a redcard if he head-butts his computer screen?

It is impossible to make fun of him knowing we could all be feeling the same way by 6:45pm tonight.

If you think that was an accident, you are clearly unfamiliar with Pepe's work. THIS might change your mind.

Pepe's history of red cards is long -- he's arguably the biggest thug in Europe (at least in terms of the big clubs). There's nothing unintentional about anything violent from that guy.

Gator a Portugal fan? I missed that somehow.

I have more composure than Pepe

Not sure how this translates to viewers:

@AustinKarp: World Cup yesterday: ABC's 3.3 overnight rating for France-Honduras (230pm ET) edges out ESPN's 3.1 for Argentina-Bosnia Herzegovina (530pm)

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Joey Barton on Twitter: As a one time connoisseur of the dark arts of madness, in my expert opinion, that from Pepe, was supreme, world class madness.

 

[Jaysus]

Go ####yourself cats:

12' GOAAAAAAL GERMANY! Muller strikes the ball into the bottom left. GIF

32' GOAAAAAAL GERMANY! And from the resulting corner, Hummels thumps the ball into the back of the net with a strong header. GIF

37' Pepe - Really stupid. Pepe puts a hand in the face of Muller and Muller tumbles, Pepe gets into his face and puts in a forehead, and the referee from Serbia is given no choice. GIF

45+1' GOAAAAAL GERMANY! Bruno Alves tries to clear the ball from a Kroos cross, but it falls straight to Muller who fires the ball home to make it 3-0. GIF

From watching that, I think if he'd wanted to headbutt him it would have been a lot better than that little tap.

ETA: Regardless, my only point was that it sucked (in a vacuum, better since it helped the US) to see a guy rewarded for goading another player by supreme floppery.

 

[B-Deep]

those were some world D cups

 

[TenTimes]

it's like the world cup countries vetted all the women traveling to the world cup to make sure their country was well represented.

well

we have not seen our fans yet

 

[massraider]

I think this World Cup, in Brazil, is probably the finest collection of international booty the world has ever seen.

Whatever it is, the penalty for trying it is death.

It does not translate to viewers. It translates to households. A 3.3 represents 3.3% of the US TV households watched the game on ABC (about 3.8 million households).

The viewership number comes a little later.

 

[Ignoramus]

Best defense Portugal has shown all day.

 

[Christo]

Looks like it's turned into a light training session for Germany.

 

[Norman Paperman]

Ozil has been pretty useless...

 

[B Maverick]

Nani trying to be Ronaldo instead of being Nani

 

[B-Deep]

i like the way they draw lines on the pitch with silly string

 

[Jaysus]

Girl handles ball like a pro

German Girl

Hot Portugese girl thats hoppin

She has a nice smile

 

[NewlyRetired]

Jesus, that looks like a bad injury.

That also means CRo has to go 90, that is the last sub if he comes off.

 

[Jaysus]

Ozil has been pretty useless...

whoa, now say something about Ronaldo being injured!

 

[Jaysus]

oh no, my stream has not caught up to it yet.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Wow... it's turning into a US wet dream.

 

[fatguyinalittlecoat]

How good is the guy that just got hurt?

[Mjolnirs]

Love hearing CR7 getting bood

 

[Norman Paperman]

So portugal down two players to injury, 1 to Red card...US really need to get a result tonight - a win is not critical, a draw can also work.

 

[CletiusMaximus]

There's at least one guy out there who is desperate for a Portugal goal

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

How good is the guy that just got hurt?

Also good. Both of those defenders start for the team that just won the European Champions League -- Real Madrid.

 

[The Gator]

How good is the guy that just got hurt?

Pretty good and will be a big miss

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

so it must be really good

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Catching the second half at a tapas restaurant. Exchanging Pepe jokes over Sangria.

 

[NewlyRetired]

How good is the guy that just got hurt?

Very good. They are one of the top teams in the World so most of their starters are very good.

The two players that went off were both players for Real Madrid who won the Champions League this year.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Come on finish that!

 

[TLEF316]

Who got hurt?

 

[Norman Paperman]

:boner:

 

[TwinTurbo]

Glad to see Portugal getting throttled here and getting exposed as the soft, undisciplined, overrated side that they usually are.

 

[fatguyinalittlecoat]

How good is the guy that just got hurt?

Very good. They are one of the top teams in the World so most of their starters are very good.

How are the backups that will replace Pepe and the other guy (assuming he's too hurt to play)?
