who's Giuseppe Rossi rooting for this World Cup?

I'm sitting a few miles from his home in Clifton NJ where he grew up.

He got left off the final Italian team for this World Cup.

Mauro Camaronessi is still on the team despite a bum knee. He's another turncoat. (born in Argentina)

Does ESPN the Magazine have a cover jinx?

(The headline a few weeks ago was, "America's best hope at the World Cup." )

Is it wrong that as soon as I heard that Rossi was cut, an uncontrollable, slightly maniacal fit of laughter took me over?

Yes
