Really two weeks, so lots of stuff went on.
This Week in Ex-Twins
You miss one week and all kinds of stuff happens.
World Cup Matchday 3
ABC
11AM: Colombia v Greece
2PM: Uruguay v Costa Rica
ESPN
5PM: England v Italy

I'll probably be on the lake in the morning, so if I miss some Colombia-Greece, I'm not bothered. I'm definitely looking forward to watching my English teammate have an aneurysm during the Italy game.

June 14, 2014: Spain
Spain gave up two goals in the entire 2010 World Cup and gave up five yesterday. I don't know if they're repeating, guys.
Also, the LA Kings. Congrats, Marion Gaborik.
Also, Kyle Gibson keeps improving. Hooray!
Also, Joe Nathan does not. This gives me no pleasure.
