The World Cup is being broadcast on ESPN here in the states (and they're going to show every single game), which is a cable channel, so you'd have to pay a subscription fee to get that channel, but nothing extra per game, or for the World Cup. England vs. USA will be on ABC tomorrow though, so that's completely free, assuming one owns a television and an antenna.
But this stream is completely free, as long as you have a computer and an internet connection. ESPN will apparently be streaming every game.

Yeah dude, even on your PHONE. If you have 3G, or whatever, and the bandwidth, you can stream all of the games live, for free.
ATTENTION CORPORATIONS THE WORLD OVER. PRODUCTIVITY WILL BE DOWN FOR THE NEXT MONTH. DEAL WITH IT.

Dude, failing that, you can always text Google SMS for updates on the games... I do that for American football game updates all the time when I can't watch them live. It's free (aside from whatever costs are incurred by you sending or receiving texts).
I'm not sure if the number will work in Canada, but here, you just text this number:
466-453
Enter a search string like "Mexico score", and you should get back up-to-the-minute text updates. Hope that can sate you at work.
PS. Yup, there are ads during this stream.

Maybe South Africa won't be the first host nation to be eliminated in the group stage after all.

What a finish for SA goal, unstoppable. Can't believe Mexico didn't win considering all there chances but SA had the 2 other best chances in the 2nd hlaf which they should have scored. Great start to the tournament, even though the 1st half hour dragged on a bit.

SA Almost won it at the 89th minute mark i was standing on my feet. I thought Mexico would surely knock em off but good game overall.

I really hope those horns were just because it was an RSA game. I really hope that's not something we can expect in every match.
