Just heard on Mike and Mike there are rumors going around that the game maybe postponed due to the rain. Looks like some serious flooding from the pictures put up on Twitter.

Edit: Espn was trying to contact FIFA to see what conditions would lead to a delay.

Play with a few inches on the pitch makes a 0-0 draw more likely

The pictures look like a bad New Orleans summer storm but those can shite down half the city for hours.

I assume that would move back the Portugal/Ghana game as well so they are simultaneous?

17 miles in three hours is a pretty quick pace...

We better play today. I haven't showered since we beat ghana. Told myself I'd showered after the group stages. Axe is getting pretty expensive

Umm... Not really


It is if you're walking, and unless you run half marathons that's a 10minute mile for 3 hours almost
