Yep, the football's been great on the whole (well the bits I've watched so far have been). The biggest disappointment for me so far is the BBC's coverage. For them to stay at home with an animation of the Manhattan skyline projected behind them from their studio in Salford is laughable, when the ITV pundits are actually sitting in front of the real thing in their swanky New York Studio. I don't want to get all political, but to me it shows just how far the BBC's priorities have shifted over the last five years or so.
Also Rooney is the worst pundit around and I don't find the rest of the BBC's pundits and presenters (with exception of maybe Kelly Cates) to be very engaging.
If this is how the bbc are going to handle major global sporting events in the future then they probably don't deserve to be showing them.
