WHO says the Americans don't care about the World Cup? The controversial finish to the States' group game against Slovenia on Friday, which saw Maurice Edu's perfectly good winning goal cancelled out for a nonexistent foul, has rankled Uncle Sam's sporting elite, with Andy Roddick breaking off from his Wimbledon preparations to delivering the verbal equivalent of an overhead smash on the standards of refereeing in South Africa.
ESQ"I understand the rules of football so well that apparently when two Slovenian guys mug an American guy the American guy gets called for a foul," Roddick said, just resisting the urge to cry "You cannot be serious" and summoning a virtual replay on Hawk-Eye. "That's how well I understand the rules out there."
PradaWisely, Roddick avoided watching England's dismal goalless draw with Algeria, the other game in the United States' group.
magnetic Watches"I did not watch the England game," he said. "I decided to take advantage of no traffic and go into the city and have some dinner.
"You'd be amazed how quickly you can get down there when an England game is on."
