Ironically, it is the only Chicago airport I have flown into or out of.

... and the house I grew up in is about 5 blocks from the perimeter fences at O'Hare (now).

Don't fly to Chicago - Midway.
I hear clouds delay departures there.

It's a winnable group, but a losable group.

I can see Paraguay and Turkey (if they are the qualifier) advancing. Australia are always difficult to gauge.

I'm guessing the US finish second. But if they don't advance -- even as a 3rd Place team -- it's an embarrassment.

* -- it's Group L for England.

But Group I isn't a cake walk for anyone.

I used to joke that between being a ref and my involvement with the Red Army's Thundering Bums that the Frozen Faceoff were the only games I could just watch.

I know that feeling.

Is a stadium collapse something I'm allowed to cheer for?

The refs have entered the chat?

guh.. another typo.

*didn't die...

Prussia???

Perhaps...

Objective one is to stop the puck. They don't ask how.
Latkoczy gave up another last night off a rebound.

Prussia the issue is that Aubry is gone, and I'm not sure Omaha has a goalie coach, now.

Hoping Omaha stops with the turnstile defense they've been playing in their own end.

The Mavericks need to be the more physical team, close up the middle of the ice.

It's Omaha allowing opponents to walk in on Simon, unmolested. The defense is shambles, too many grade A chances against.

Omaha was flawless in the first, until Hyland's penalty.

That was all the invitation the Broncos needed.

... and it is.
Dangerous hit by Hyland in front of the Western bench.

Can you guys schedule an exhibition in Newfoundland?
