On Thursday June 26th the United States faces Germany with a trip to the knockout stages of the world cup on the line. Americans all over this great country won't get to see that game, won't get to enjoy the fraternity of their fellow citizens because it is scheduled for the middle of the day.
We'll be sneaking out for long lunches, refreshing browsers, calling in sick.
You can save everybody the trouble. Make thursday a holiday. Let's do this thing right and all stop what we're doing and watch the game together.
Thanks,
America.
