captions by vitac www.vitac.com good sunday morning, everyone. i m lester holt. welcome to today. and i m jenna wolfe. i got to tell you, i am drained from that match yesterday. i watched all 3,000 minutes of it, which is how long it seemed to have lasted and i mean the ups, the downs, the emotions. did you get a chance to watch? i got a chance to watch. i still don t understand a lot of soccer when they go into overtime i never know when it s going to finish. like pot luck. you feel like is this going to end now? boy they played their hearts out, what a great, great run it has been. it broadened all of our horizons. it did. we started think being soccer in different ways. you ll talk to the head coach coming up. yep. but first a busy morning for us, as we continue to follow tropical storm alex headed toward the gulf of mexico. it s hit belize and guatemala and moving through mexico s yucatan peninsula as well. it s supposed to reach the gulf this evening. the current tracking looks like it may spare the area of the oil spill. we ll find out exactly where it appears to be heading coming up. later on a lighter note, he took the mound here in new york on saturday, a guy who is in his league of his own, prince harry showed that he has an arm and an appreciation for america s pasttime. we ll tell what you he s up to. you didn t like his windup? i thought maybe a contradict match was about to break out. and do you consider yourself a shopaholic? can t stop buying? this morning some people with the opposite problem or maybe a related problem. they re called returnaholics because they can t or won t stop returning things. we re going to find out whether it s a serious condition or a serious scam. a lot to get to. first the latest in the gulf of mexico where tropical storm alex has people on edge. nbc s anne thompson got a firsthand look at the work done on the rigs designed to stop this ping. she joins us this morning from houma, louisiana, anne, good morning. reporter: good morning, lester. the oil spill response has two focuses. first is tropical storm alex and making preparations in case it heads this way, including evacuation plans for the some 38,000 workers here in the gulf. the second focus of course is killing the well. there are two rigs out at the spill site at work on that project. one is the development driller 2 and yesterday i got to go aboard the de2. it is a ride through the clouds to get to the rig. when you can see the gulf, the current lines stand out in oily relief. as you get closer, the water is marred with tentacles of crude. around the site, there is an armada of aid and yet a mile below the surface, the well still gushes. this is the dd2, where they are drilling the second relief well. over here, this is the dd3, that is where they are drilling the first relief well, and it is within 1,800 feet of the out of control well. the goal? to kill the well that killed 11 men on the deepwater horizon, something offshore installation manager chris woicowsky never forgets. how is the well going? everything s going as planned, the guys are driven and motivated. reporter: so far the massive drill dug 12,000 feet below the water and started to turn towards the well. wendell guidry is the drilling superintendent. what is the job of the casing? the casing seals the well bore thaw drill, seals it off, keeps all the formations on the outside of it. reporter: so it holds the shape of the hole that you drill? that s correct. reporter: the effort out here is unprecedented. there are 173 workers on the dd2, 1,500 workers in total on the 45 rigs and vessels. it is a constant reminder to those on board that the world is watching. this is just a high-profile well. i ll put it this way shall probably the most important well i ve ever been on in my life. how is that? reporter: there s a lot of talk of tropical storm alex. if a tropical storm or hurricane threatens this part of the gulf it will be matt macowsky s job to move the platform. he is the captain of the rig. to unhook and pack up everything, that takes how long. could take one to two days. reporter: and do you go into the shore? no, we will stay offshore and try to just get as far as possible from the storm. reporter: coast guard officials say the secure and evade plan if a tropical storm or hurricane heads this way would severely disrupt the containment, the cleanup and yes, those efforts to kill the well, because they will start to put the plan in place five days before gale force winds are forecast to hit the spill site. lester? anne thompson, thanks very much. let s get a closer look at the projected path of alex. the weather channel s scott williams, good morning. good morning, lester. all eyes have been in the gulf of mexico this weekend as we have been monitoring tropical storm alex. here is the latest. it is holding its own, it still is a minutical tropical storm, tong move toward the west-northwest at about 12 miles an hour, but it is quite expansive here, cloud cover stretches into the gulf of mexico and also into the east pacific. now it will weaken a little bit as it continues over the yucatan peninsula. as we look at the projected path here eventually later on this evening it will emerge back into the southwestern sections of the gulf of mexico, where it will pick up in intensity. it could strengthen back into a category 1, maybe even 2 storm before heading a little farther west into mexico right now but south texas is also in that cone so of course we ll be monitoring the situation. lester, back to you. scott williams, thanks. nbc nightly news returns to the gulf tonight, brian williams, tomorrow. high drama at the world dmupout saf ka last night as the united states battled ghana in a do or die matchup. ghana prevailed again. ian williams was watching it all. reporter: good morning, general, from irene farm the u.s. headquarters near praetoria, u.s. coach bob bradley describing yesterday s match as a stinging, tough defeat. once again they were out in force. usa! reporter: u.s. fans knowing that from here on, it was instant knockout for the loser. we re going to come out in control tonight. we got the momentum, it s going to happen. reporter: they poured into russinberg and packed bars across the u.s. looking for another spirited performance but ghana came out fighting carrying the hopes of the connent, the last african team left in this tournament. in the fifth minute the u.s. lost the ball in midfield. ghana scoring on the break. once again, the u.s. had conceded an early goal. they struggled to find their composure but in the second half they came out fighting, more of a rhythm. instantly they looked more dangerous. in the 06-second minute, clint dempsey was brought down in front of the goal, a penalty which led landon donovan into the net. rolling stone mick jagger among them. no more goals taking the game into extra time when ghana struck again, 2-1 goals. the u.s. fought back, but this time a dramatic last-minute goal drew delusive. it s sad, another four years we ll be back. i m not going to stop routing for the u.s. because they lost. reporter: in the end the u.s. team couldn t mount the dramatic last-minute comeback we d almost become used to but they do go home with their heads held high having won enormous and respect as possibly the most spirited people in this tournament. jenna? ian, williams, thank you. joining on the phone from south africa is the coach of the u.s. soccer team, bob bradley. bob, thank you so much for joining us. thank you very much for having me. coach, let me start by asking you this. this has been an incredibly emotional run for you guys and i m sure the team is going through an incredible emotional high and low. how proud are you of this team, of what you did over the last two weeks? we re proud. when you work for four years, you get that chance to be in the spotlight, and you want to be a team that now is ready, and prepared, and gives it everything. we re also gutted, because we felt that we had the ability to do something bigger, and as we came out of the first round, we were excited about our chances. let me ask you this, because you were in this and so focused on the game i m not sure how much you had a chance to appreciate the world cup fever going on around the world. people here yesterday in new york, i saw rushing home to make sure they were in front of a tv to watch this. did you get a sense of this mounting national fervor for this big game? i have heard a little bit about it. you re absolutely right, that on this end, there s so much focus on the work and we concentrate on preparing for each game, but we ve gotten word about the tremendous support that the u.s. team has received across the country. we also saw incredible support from our fans here in south africa, flags, people chanting usa so we re thrilled that the people were behind our team. and not just layman fans but you had some pretty big names in the stadium watching you. mick jagger was there, former president bill clinton was there. i know that president obama was watching that game. he wasn t there but he was watching. did you get a sense of nerves at all? was there any part of that that weighed in to you just the fact that really the entire world was watching this? no, we were honored by the support that we received. we received the phone call from president obama the other night, and everyone on the team was thrilled that he would take the time to let us know that he was there supporting us, and that the people in the united states felt the same way. so really, we were honored, and we understood the responsibility of stepping on the field and giving it everything that we had. coach, earlier you mentioned the word gutted in describing how you guys felt. i m sure it was a very see motional bus ride away from that stadium. can you tell me a little bit about what you said to the team shortly afterwards, were you able to quiet down and what you told your guys? the initial conversations, one on one conversations and mainly just a thank you for people committing themselves to effort, when we get together later today, we ll talk on a little bigger scale about the work that we ve done, the things that we feel good about, and of course, the things that we need to continue to build upon. coach, we thank you so much for joining us. it was a very emotional run for you and your guys, we re so proud of you here back in the united states. g coach bob bradley give the team our heartiest congratulations. thank you very much. our congratulations to them. indeed. we ll take a break and head over to the news desk, melissa francis has the headlines. good morning, everyone. the g-20 sumity resumes in toronto and security increased after violent clashes ended with more than 150 people arrested. authorities say a group of protesters were throwing rocks, torching police cars, and vandalizing stores. meanwhile, inside the summit g-20 leaders met saturday and agreed to cut deficits. confirmation hearings start tomorrow for supreme court nominee elena kagan. the senate judiciaryommittee will likely ask her about her years in the clinton administration. if confirmed she ll replace justice john paul stevens. a tragedy in new york central park saturday. a 6-month-old girl was killed and her mom badly injured when a tree branch fell on them as they posed for a photo at the famed central park zoo, the second fatality this year at the park from a fallen tree branch. in washington state search and rescue teams are looking for a 21-year-old man and his daughter. jared agnew took his daughter for a drive to calm her down and never returned. his wife reported them missing. police later located the family s car abandoned in the mud with the doors locked. finally a big price tag for michael jackson s swarovski crystal studded glove, sold for $190,000, ten times its estimated value. jackson wore the glove during his 1984 victory tour and lester and jenna, organizers estimate this weekend s auction sales will top $1 million. lester, are you the one that bought that glove? i already have one. you have the match. i was looking for the match. it goes with everything. there are two gloves? what a rip-off. i thought there was only one. now melissa and lester has one? we have a matching set if we put them together. goes with everything, bathing suit, pajamas, whatever, looks good. melissa, thanks. want to see the bathing suit that goes with. scott williams here again with a check of the weather. good sunday morning, everyone. i m tony pann. it s going to be another hot and humid day today. actual temperatures in the mid 90 s. sections of the ohio river valley as we move throughout the afternoon. and that s a look at your weather. lester, back to you. scott, thanks. up next, health scare, the latest on former vice president dick cheney s heart condition, after this. it s the perfect combination of sweet and crispy. i love it. this is so good. this is great. the magic s in the mix. we re a fan of simple ingredients. so we seeded that into something much bigger. the home farming movement. join us at triscuit.com/homefarming. we re learning more this morning about former vice president dick cheney who remains hospitalized in washington. mike viqueira, good morning. reporter: the vice president is responding well. it turns out two weeks ago while in his home state of wyoming the former vice president started feeling discomfort possible as a result of an irregular heartbeat something he has experienced before, they call it atrial fibrillation. he came back to washington and on friday, two days ago he was feeling some discomfort, possibly a result of fluid retention that is a result of his heart condition. of course the former vice president has a long history of heart condition. he was checked into the hospital for tests. he is said to be responding well to iv medication and resting comfortably. mike any idea when he might be released from the hospital? reporter: it s fairly consistent with the original statement they put out, they said he d be here over the weekend for tests. now we re hearing he will be released within the next day or so. lepser? mike viqueira, thanks. dr. sung lee implanted a device in dick cheney nine years ago. he joins us from washington. good morning, thank you for joining us. good morning. in laymans terms, what does that mean? well, the progressive retention of fluid means that the heart is not working well enough and fluid is backing up into the tissues and you re getting congestion of the tissues. we hear the same congestive heart failure, same thing? it s very similar, in a way it is the same thing. congestive heart failure can mean many things. congestive heart failure is a chronic illness that happens in people with weakened heart muscle. and how easily is it treated? well the congestive heart failure is a chronic illness and at times will have exacerbation of congestive heart failure and when somebody has a congestive heart failure, main medications we ll use is diuretics, intravenous diuretics. in the case of the ex-vice president, a patient had five heart attacks, bypass surgery, angioplasty, pacemaker, couple episodes of atrial fibrillation. what is the next level of treatment for a patient with that kind of history? well, he actually has done very well, considering that he had many heart attacks, and he has had weakened heart muscle. in general, patients with congestive heart failure can be treated very well with the medications. and what kind of symptoms would he have been experiencing before this last episode? what would he have been feeling? he had two heart issues going on, one was atrial fibrillation, which is a rapid heart racing of the heart, and fluid retention, which is the heart failure, so symptoms he will feel is shortness of breath, fatigue, difficulty in lying down, and sometimes they will feel heart racing sensation. if the heart is racing fast enough in somebody who has a coronary artery disease they may also feel chest pain. assuming he gets out of the hospital as anticipated is he picking up a normal schedule right away in. absolutely. if somebody has the exacerbation of heart failure the most important thing is find out what triggered this particular event and sounds like if he had atrial fibrillation certainly atrial fibrillation can trigger and exacerbate the heart failure and once we control the atrial fibrillation and once we control the fluid retention he should be able to go back to his normal, active lifestyle. dr. sung lee, thank you so much. thank you so much. and we re back but first these messages. every time we use our card. we earn double ms ( shouts ) double miles add up fast so we can bring the whole gang.

reporter: good morning, jenna. prince harry is getting ready to line up here with the achilles international freedom team, getting ready to come by here right now. he is walking with wounded veterans injured in iraq and afghanistan. he s kept a very busy pace on this visit to the city. okay, folks, spectators, let s hear it for freedom team. reporter: he is keeping pace in that race certainly walking on by but it is something that has been near and dear to his heart as charity work. the prince is also taking time to have some fun. please welcome his royal highness, prince harry. reporter: looking all-american in a white t-shirt and baseball cap and even a bit nervous. england s prince harry took to the mound at the new york mets city field. it s your pitch. reporter: throwing thor e e s ceremonial first pitch and catching a royal welcome from fans. this is new york and it is america. baseball is an american sport. just to see prince harry throw out the first pitch, kacae he s a prince. and he s cute. reporter: the stop here at citi field is part of a whirlwind visit for the prince, a chance to enjoy a slice of american life and also show americans there s more to him than just a title. his first stop friday, the u.s. military academy at west point. prince harry, a lieutenant in the british army, took part in field training exercises with cadets and showed off his skills. he clearly knows what he s doing. he clearly knows how to shoot. reporter: while in new york, prince harry also took time to meet with wounded british and american veterans on the flight deck of the uss intrepid. we fight together and tragically some die together and others are wounded together. reporter: the youngest son of prince charles and the late princess diana is also here raising money for his charity, sentabali which provides money and support for aids victims. he thinks of his mother and her charity work every day. that s what keeps us going every day is that thought of what would she be like if she was around today. reporter: a young prince following in his mother s footsteps while at the same time carving out a royal place of his own. and from central park, the prince will take to the polo field this afternoon, participating in the annual classic that also benefits his charity. michelle, for people at home that don t realize, the opportunity you got that prince harry was walking by as you were talking is once in a lifetime, people cannot time things that perfectly, i give you kudos for being able to speak and have the prince walk by and continue speaking. michelle, thank you. reporter: exactly, and he kept walking. i did pick up on the fact that he didn t stop but that s okay. you got him in the background there. michelle franzen, thank you very much. now let s send it over to lester. thanks, prince harry, oh, we just missed him. just missed him again. thanks. we ve all heard of shopaholics, people who can t stop shopping. now there s another trend involving people who frequently return things. they re called returnaholics. some say it is a compulsive disorder, others call it criminal, costing the retail industry billions of dollars each year. for the past two years i ve had serious issues returning too much stuff. reporter: al is a den list from pennsylvania. like so many, he s embarrassed about by his behavior. for him and others we have not used their faces and changed their voices. i ve been banned from home depot and lowe s for returning too much without a receipt as well as target. reporter: jennifer from florida. my husband is a returnaholic. he has returned so many items to the nike store that he actually got a dear john letter from them. reporter: and debbie wrote? i ve been banned from shopping at blufly.com due to returns but i should be able to order and try on and return out penalties. a returnaholics is similar to other addictive and compulsive behaviors, there s a drive, a high risk, there s a thrill and the person achieves satisfaction from that. reporter: amy from michigan. i loved returning to stores like bed, bath and beyond. i also returned all of my wedding gifts and got a full cash refund. i didn t feel guilty, because they said i could. after all, it s not illegal. obviously that is not an illegal practice, but it takes the product off the store shelves, it costs the retailers a significant amount of money and it harms consumers like you and i that are looking to buy the new in box or new in tag items. reporter: joe larocca works with the national retail federation. i ve seen people come back with sacks full of merchandise, dirty, stained, smelly clothing and they expect a full return. reporter: lenient return policies like this one at target make it easy for returnaholics to take advantage of the system. anything wrong with this? reporter: and for the most extreme returnaholics, their behavior can escalate to criminal consequences. i ve actually been arrested three times for illegal returns. a returnaholic is not about getting the most bang for the buck or getting the next buy at the store. this is more about deceit and fraud. terry shulman founder of the shulman center of compulsive theft and spending. he s also the author of bout out and spent, recovery from compulsive shopping and spending. thanks for having me. first, is it a disorder? return aholism can be a disorder. we have three different categories of people. we have people who are criminals engaging in buying things in and some ways fraudulently returning the items. we do also have people who go in knowing they re going to buy something and they re going to trurn later. i m going to get a dress, wear it out and return it, so they re intentionally doing that. the people i tend to work with as an addiction therapist are people who are in the moment, wanting something, they go in, get a high from the shopping, and then they have kind of like a buyer s remorse and they return it. so now they re spending time, energy and money to buy and then return, buy and return. there s no ill intent. they really thought they wanted this. right. an offshoot of compulsive shopping? there are people who are bargain shoppers, people who shop for others. the closest equivalent for a bulimic, eating disorder called bulimia, people binge to fill themselves when they re anxious, feeling a void and feel full or sick about what they did so to purge that feeling they throw it up. a returnaholic is almost a bulimic shopper. does the system enable that kind of behavior? so many stores have liberal return policies because it s good for business obviously. that s true. i don t know that they enable it. they have to attract customers so they re competing with other retailers to have liberal return policies. it is a $10 billion to $15 billion a year. when the items get return sometimes they can t be resold, damaged and the price tag goes up for all of us let s kick out the criminals because that s criminal behavior but you mentioned the person they re going to buy the dress, they re going to wear it to the big event saturday night and trurn and they do that with full knowledge, that s not illegal, but it can be an addiction, the thrill of gaming the system? that can be. a lot of people are feeling like they re particularly clever or they can have their cake and eat it, too. there are people who do that and i work with some of the people on occasion to get them to realize, look, even if you do feel pretty smart and clever, what s really going on for you? what is this need and is it taking up your time and energy that could be better spent elsewhere? most of the people are lonely, they re empty, they re depressed, they really don t know what they want, and so when they buy things, often things they don t want and they have the buyer s remorse, really symbolizes a deeper problem of what s going on in the person s life. how do you treat with? with any addiction or compulsion, eating disorder called bulimia or people who just eat too much in general, we treat it with therapy, specialized therapy, reading books, sometimes support groups, having a system of accountability, keeping people either out of stores so people will do the shopping for them or with them for awhile and we have online returnaholism, and sometimes people have to monitor their use of computer. thanks, appreciate it. just ahead, wimbledon, the matches you need to know about, but first these messages. eye-beautifier with e-pulse™. rilliance™ the first anti-aging cream inspired by electro-stimulation. on contact, the micro-currents become activated and puffiness is reduced. in just three days, the look of fine lines will fade. roc®. seeing is believing. save on roc® brilliance™ eye, day, or night at rocskincare.com. wimbledon is at its half way mark and it s already a year of record-breaking surprises at the famed tennis tournament. if you have plans for tomorrow, put them aside because the day is being called blockbuster monday. joining us from wimbledon on what to expect is nbc s sports tennis analyst, mary carillo. good morning. good morning, jenna. a lot of good, fun stories with the tournament this year. i want to start on the women s side. let answer get right to it, serena williams, admittedly had problems with her last most recent match but did win. can you give us an idea what we can look forward to the second week with serena? i think she graded herself really harshly. she is a three-time champion. older sister venus has won it five times but i think she s moving beautifully, incredibly fit. she s going into the fourth round of wimbledon and i still think she s the one to beat. she looks magnificent and tomorrow she plays maria sharapova. she won wimbledon twice in a row, in 2004 a 17-year-old siberian maria sharapova came out of nowhere and beat serena there. they play fourth round tomorrow, not in the time. that s big match on nbc. you mentioned venus should see get past sharapova is there a chance she could match up with her sister at some point? that could be. venus williams just turned 30, jenna but she s two in the world. she won this five times. she has been the best grass court player of the decade. so she s very fit so she s one of the players at 30, you think she s kind of over the hill but because she s so fit and focussed to win at wimbledon again she gets to use all of the experience and wisdom and maturity in her favor. sure. they could possibly meet in the final again next saturday. it s a shame she hasn t done more with her life. men s wside, roger federer, can you give me an idea of what you re looking forward to if the two match up in the tournament as well? they could be heading towards each other again, they had a tremendous final last year, 16-14 in the fifth set before roger was able to turn back andy roddick. guess what? roger federer has been struggling the whole first week looked scratchy. we to go five sets to get out of the first round of wimbledon. andy roddick, last year s finalist, dropped a serve one time, serving at over 70%, he seems much more relaxed than roger federer. andy roddick looks better than rafa nadal, also struggling in week one so there could be a chance of f those two meet up again not tomorrow but down the line and that could be a really nice looking rematch. if you ll allow me to. the 20 millionth person to ask you about the epic battle between jon isner and nicolas mahut. isner lost on friday. you got a chance to see this in person. are people still talking about this, is this one of the topics that will gain momentum as the tournament progresses? you know a lot of people, the whole, it s a first round match on court 18, didn t look, not too two-huge names but i think it will become the most famous first round match in the history of wimbledon to go over 11 hours, over three days to finally end at 70-68, i m pretty sure we re never going to see the like of that again. unfortunately for john isner, the next day he had nothing and he lost very meekly, very timidly but he s a very fine american player so we re going to be talking about him again. he doesn t want this to be the only match he s ever remembered for. the one that defines him, 11 hours. i take an one spin class and proud of myself. the thought of 11 hours sin sane. mary carillo as always thank you for joining us. my pleasure, jenna. catch coverage of wimbledon today at 12:00 moon and tomorrow starting at 10:00 a.m. right here on nbc. and we ll be back after these messages. phone rings ] - [ horn honking ] - [ tires squealing ] i m ridin down the highway i m just rollin [ announcer ] without the right auto insurance, a crash might impact more than your car.
