Someone tell me today's final is the absolute worst, most boring, horrid piece of drivel that should just not be called football. Then I might not have to kick whoever is responsible for cutting the signal to my cable company the length and width of the country. Oh hell, they're getting kicked right the way around the world and pole to pole! Thank god for Capital Gold for not only broadcasting it, but for having the server capacity to accept just one more connection! Maybe I'll get to at least hear the 2nd half, since the first was spent trying not to rip my phone out of the wall while on perma-hold with the cable company. ;-)

sorry for the rant...sometimes ya just gotta get it out. Now I'm going to try to enjoy listening to the second half and preparing all my documentation for tonight's assault on the cable company in pursuit of a full (or at least hefty) refund for 2 weeks of missed games, screwed up signals, games cut off at crucial moments, etc. I hope the poor phone staff who thought they were in for a nice quiet Sunday afternoon are ringing for every manager and supervisor to come in!

I wonder if I can get them to pay for the microwave popcorn that burnt while I was on hold with them too. ;-)

France equalize with the last kick of regular time....right, I'm going to go start composing the letters going to the cable company, the ppv company, Setanta sport, the better business bureau.... :-/

Ciara, you don't sound very happy hinny!

Chill out, go and get yourself another box of popcorn.

Could have been worse, could have been the Toon in a cup final that you were trying to watch. :-)

LOL....then I would really have been upset. ;-) So much easier to just fly over to England for Toon matches. Less stress, more fun! Anyway, so far they've approved an instant credit of $30, with a formal dispute form being mailed out tomorry. Only another $119 to go.... :-D

Is it right that Kevin Keegan is in charge of your cable company?
