Ives has updates to both stories. It looks like Ferdinand and Drogba are both out for the WC. Although it helps the US's chances, you always hate to see knee injuries

because it would have been nice to see an african team, or more than one, do well at this year's finals. there's ghana with essien, and now drogba for the ivory coast. and who knows what's up with eto'o these days.

then again, something actually being wrong with drogba when he goes down is rather ironic. i guess you could call it schadenfreude.
