Does anyone know of a NYC location TV channel (or a web site) that shows game highlights?
I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.

The part of the tournament that I like the best is when it comes down to the last game in the group and you can review the options ...

Group A
Current Standings
Brazil - 4
Mexico - 4
Croatia - 3
Cameroon - 0

Games coming up
Brazil v Cameroon
Mexico v Croatia

Review
Brazil needs a draw or better to progress. Their location in the group is not in their hands as a crushing victory by Mexico will put Mexico to the #1 slot.
The winner of Mexico v Croatia will progress. A draw will see Mexico through.
Cameroon is done for this event.

Group B
Current Standings
Netherlands - 6
Chile - 6
Australia - 0
Spain - 0

Games coming up
Netherlands v Chile
Australia v Spain

Review
The two teams progressing have been decided (Chile, Netherlands). They are playing for the #1 slot. Their game is after Group A is decided so they will know which slot will progress and (possibility) play Brazil.
Australia (the team of the tournament re playing above the expectations so far) could cap a great event by crushing a demoralized Spain.

Group C
Current Standings
Colombia - 6
Ivory Coast - 3
Japan - 1
Greece - 1

Games coming up
Colombia v Japan
Ivory Coast v Greece

Review
Colombia has qualified. A victory to any of the other three will see them progress. A draw to Ivory Coast should see them through unless Japan wins by 2+ goals.
Japan have been disappointing. Ivory Coast have been a revelation.

Group D

Current Standings
Costa Rica - 3 (from 1 game)
Italy - 3 (from 1 game)
Uruguay - 3 (from 2 game)
England - 0 (from 2 game)

Games coming up
Italy v Costa Rica (today)
Italy v Uruguay
England vi Costa Rica

This group isn't 100% clear yet as we wait for today's game (Italy v Costa Rica) but I can tell you that England will need things to go their way if they want to progress (not a draw between Italy & Costa Rica, not a draw between Italy & Uruguay, thumping victory over Costa Rica).

It is slightly worse. They need Italy to win both games while also winning against CR.

Seriously, they're up to 4-1-1 now by my count. And 5 of those 6 games were against South American or European teams. Ooooooookay. lol

ESPN has all the highlights available? Not sure what you mean by NYC location.

Edit: oh you mean NYC local channel. Pfft, who watches television?

Really? I am looking for a end to end 20 to 30 minute highlight of each game. I can find some 90 second clips of goals and the like ... can you suggest a link (or links) with more details?

England ... thanks for coming. Italy and Uruguay will play for the right to stay in the event. Italy need a draw or better.
