    As amazing as this is, at what point does it become dangerous for their health? It's madness. Amazing sport, but madness nonetheless.

    Even more amazingly, the final set is longer than any previous match ever. The final set by itself. I've said it before and I'll say it again, madness.

    We had it on the big screen in our conference room at work* over here in California. At first we had it as the wee picture in the corner while Germany played Ghana, but eventually we switched them over.

    *Yes, our boss is out of the office today; why do you ask?
