Here we are in the second week of the World Cup and the craziness is starting to mount.
Trying to make sense of the 2010 World Cup in less than 300 words is a challenge that is beyond On The Spit.
So in the best tradition of the worst kind of powerpoint presentations, On The Spit will resort to dot points to make its pithy observation.
Here are the best comments On The Spit has found by friends and acqaintances on Facebook and on Twitter.
* Is it just us or are Greece’s Georgios Samaras and Argentina’s Jonas Gutierrez tryng to revive Farrah Fawcett’s hair style from the 1970s?
