1. Yahoo was only available on the weekend.

Because there is little traffic then. It sucks. ESPN appears to be working now. I don't understand how Yahoo/Fifa aren't ready for this.

3. Record breaking traffic

The ratings are in for USA-Italy and they are pretty great. On ABC the match earned a 5.2 overnight Nielsen rating, the highest overnight rating for a World Cup game on ABC since the 1998 final between Brazil and France (which earned a 7.0). Univision did a 13.5 NHTI (Nielsen Hispanic Television Index) household rating for the match, translating to 1,511,000 Hispanic TV homes. Overall, there were 2,661,000 Hispanic viewers, making it the fourth most-watched game of this tournament.

4. Well don't blame me

I don't give a fuck about FIFA or soccer. If the USA does ok, then maybe I'll jump on the bandwagon, but it's unlikely.

5. What's wrong with despising FIFA?

There are many problems with FIFA, and this goes back a long ways. It's definitely not one of the world's more honorable institutions, despite its association with one of the world's great games.
