I recently read up a bit on the history of YouTube and learned, that the first ever YouTube
video ("Me at the Zoo") was uploaded by founder Jawed Karimi on April 23rd, 2005. The public beta
test started only a week later in May and the official launch of the site was in November 2005.
Before I move on to rating the performances from Saturday's final "Send-Off Series" match, a 2-1
American comeback victory over an outstanding Turkish team, I thought I'd share my three
observations from my seat at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. I'll do my best to keep them
short, as Raf Crowley's insights covered most the things I would have noted.

Greece picked up their first World Cup victory this morning in the first comeback victory of the
tournament, by beating the 10-man Nigeria squad 2-1 in their second match of group play.
Greece's Vasilis Torosidis found the back of the net in the 71st minute of play after poking a
ball past Nigerian goalie Vincent Enyeama, marking a landmark day for the Greeks who had lost all
four of their World Cup matches (3 in 1994 and 1 this year).
After Saturday's big comeback victory against the Seattle Sounders, the New England Revolution
were already looking to the big three game road trip ahead. Up first is a flight to Los Angeles
where the Revs will take on Chivas USA.
Though the Revs have a pitiful 1-8-1 record on the road this season, playing a Chivas USA side
that are only 4-4-2 at home and are at the bottom of the Western Conference may be just what the
Revs need to turn their away form around.
Had it not been for the arrival of their boss at halftime, Stoke probably would have fallen
victim to an under-performing Aston Villa side. Tony Pulis flew back to Wales early Monday morning
after his mother passed away.
Heading into halftime, Stoke found themselves down 1-0 after Villa's Stewart Downing used his
head to put the Villans up.
Emile Heskey came on around the hour mark with Villa a goal down to Blackburn and within a
minute he had equalised, possibly with his first touch, and 18 minutes later Ashley Young was
nodding in Heskey's cross for the third goal to seal a comeback victory. Ashley had also headed in
a second goal in between, crossed in by Nathan Delfouneso.

No. 1 Akron improved to 4-0 over Top-10 opponents with a narrow 1-0 victory over No. 9 Creighton
on Wednesday. A Darlington Nagbe goal was enough for the Zips to extend their home unbeaten streak
to 22 games. Creighton was shut out for the first time this season as Akron continues to be the
top-scoring and top-defending team in the country.

Second-seeded Ohio State was expected to make quick work of 3-12-3 Wisconsin to start its Big 10

the reserves, is set to miss at least two months after undergoing shoulder surgery in his mother
country Tuesday.
