IT'S PRETTY MUCH OBLIGATORY TO ROOT FOR URUGUAY NOW...:

How Suárez Was Playing the Numbers (Carl Bialik, 7/02/10, WSJ)

Last Saturday, Luis Suárez scored two goals against South Korea to send Uruguay to the quarterfinals. Today, he helped Uruguay slip through to the semifinals by making a play normally considered on the opposite end of the spectrum from scoring in soccer: a deliberate handball. Suárez swatted away what would have been a certain goal by Dominic Adiyiah at the Uruguay goal line.

...so that the whole thing will have been won by the use of your hands, like a real sport.
