Continuing with yesterday's digression into international sports, time for soccer. Or, more accurately, my asking you to join a game I'm in for the World Cup.

At ESPN.com's Fantasy section, there is a link for a game called World Cup Challenge. I'm hoping to drum up interest from you, the lovely Blogalicious readership.

How do you play? Easy.

1. Go to the site linked above. If you've played other ESPN.com game, sign in. If not, please register.

2. Once you're logged in, click on the World Cup Challenge link.

3. You'll be taken through the steps to set up your entry. You'll need a name (though you can go with the default, which is usually "Last_Name Entry" (last_name being yours) first. Then, you'll be asked to choose the first and second place teams in each preliminary group.

This is not as hard as it sounds. Even if you only have a rough idea who is good and who isn't in soccer, you should be able to pick teams that at least make the playoffs. I think there are also odds on one of the pages.

4. You then pick the winners of all the games from quarterfinals on. This does get a little hard towards the end, when you have to compare the relative merits of top teams you may not know too much about. Do your best and guess where appropriate. It's what most people do, anyway.

5. Once your team is set, click on the link to create or join a group. Search then for the group "Mondial Madness." You'll need a password (corner) to join.

6. That's it!

So I hope to see you there. It'll be nice to play in a group with more than 3 people.
