...countless guests on Air America Radio's The Rachel Maddow Show, from Michael Moore to Viggo Mortensen. MSNBC hosts Nora O'Donnell and David Gregory (for whom Maddow has served as a regular panelist) have said her name wrong, as have most of her Air America co-workers, including her frequent co-host David Bender and the big-voiced announcer guy who introduces the show each day from 6 to 9 p.m. ET on Air America affiliates, the network's podcasts and satellite radio.

...Turkish side, the road to the final has been studded with mediocrity. "There's no consistency in this tournament but we've reached the final," admitted German coach Joachim Löw. The Mannschaft starting brightly in beating Poland, looked dreadful in losing to Croatia, barely adequate in dismissing co-host Austria and strategically sound in mauling the more skillful Portugal in the quarters. But nothing in this team strikes fear into the hearts of its opponents, other than the fact that it's Germany. Which is often enough...
