    Wow, I had no idea George Carlin was that old. Sure he looked old, but not 71 old. May his corpse decay in a timely fashion.

    The Sun article was not quite accurate. Spain “beat” Italy 0-0, because the penalty shootout doesn’t affect the score of the game. Since the kicks are half luck, it doesn’t make any sense to use the result to determine a margin of victory.

    [2] knows enough to correctly quote the score, but still believes that penalty kicks are “half luck.” Go ahead and give it a try, I say.
