A good Villa day, but not for ESPN

Day -123 WorldCup2018

I've always thought that this year's World Cup would be a lot more fun to watch if I was also looking forward to a season of Aston Villa back in the Premier League. To be honest though, I say that but I'm not sure I really mean. The World Cup is an event of its own and Aston Villa's good or bad season won't have an effect on it.

Having said that, all I have to share today is what has been on mind since this morning: Villa beat Birmingham 2-0, it's win number 7 in a row and they are now second in the standings. A good day.
I couldn't watch any of the match today. But I commiserate with the people who were watching it on ESPN's online service which seemed to go to commercials at half time and only come back to the football in the 70th minute. Not watching it at all was probably better than the frustration of waiting for it to come back on and missing the first goal.
