World Cup TV schedule

Rogers has a page showing the TV schedule for World Cup games for their viewing area. For non-soccer fans with fans in the household, this is going to be a very long month.

They've also posted a link on their portal to a fan's World Cup blog.

Update: Jon sent me a link to this fascinating religious viewpoint that watching the World Cup will count against you with Allah:

I am saying to the fathers, to the mothers, and to the people who watch these games: On Judgment Day, a page in the book will be opened for you, and it will say that you sat and watched the games. Will this make you happy or miserable? Will this make you happy on Judgment Day, when you face Allah, or will you wish you had never watched these games?

Did you know that Baptists shun stand up sex as it could lead to dancing? You can find a hundred leaders of every faith that send anyone to hell. I understand that US fundamentalists are against the World Cup as it is European. Scots presbyterians are against it due to the use of coloured cloth. Posted by: Alan at June 9, 2006 11:22 AM

Yeah, but that's their main line of business. ;-) Posted by: Nicholas at June 9, 2006 11:34 AM
I thought my Scots presby slur was gold. Posted by: Alan at June 9, 2006 12:06 PM
