Those annoying ESPN World Cup commercials, if nothing else, have drilled into our heads that there's many a person that's going to play and/or watch quite a swath of soccer in South Africa later this year. I said South Africa.

Here's WGN's version of South Africa, from Thursday night.

The news at 9 was on at 8:05? Were the Cubs over that quickly?

Did anyone that watches the news on WGN really even catch it? Besides my guy SHARK!!!

Yes, I had mistyped ... it was in the AM ... otherwise, I would've had to point out that the "tonight's temp" would have been in error as well (49 vs. the posted 48).

Still ... I mean, I can understand if you don't know where "whogivesafuck-istan" is located, but errors on a continental - even hemispherical - scale are unconscionable. Then again, maybe that's the real controversy after all.

M Jeff would have never let this happen. He likes to know where things are.
