World Cup
 
I have noticed that there has still been no thread here on the World Cup. Noe that our boys are out of it I was wondering who everybody was rooting for. I liked England but despite all their talent they just don't seem to be able to come together as a team. I am going to have to go for Germany now. I just hope that Brazil is not as unstoppable as they seem.

I stand corrected. Brazil is not unstoppable. I wish that I could have seen the game. But then again I don't like France either. It would be awesome to to see Germany stomp a mudhole in France in the final. Stomping France's a** seems to be a German tradition.

Soccer is like watching grass grow. If someone were to ask me if I saw a match and how great it was that so and so won. I'd reply. Don't tell me. Was the score 1 zip? The best part of this world cup is the fans. The shootings, beatings and stuff. Now that is interesting. :cool:

I started watching the England v. Portugal game yesterday, the next thing I know, I'm watching the paint dry on the wall.....and it was painted several years ago.

The only good part was when it went down to the PK's to decide the match. Hey I know.....instead of having them run around for 90 plus minutes, why don't they just go straight to the PKs to decide the games? Instead of having just 5 guys try to score, have the whole team out there kicking, including the equipment managers and water boys. Then maybe I'd watch it.

Either that or, they could bury land mines out the on the field and the players have to avoid them while running back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back.....hell you get the idea.

Exactly Sdiver......To be in a world competion and the PKs decide the outcome. Interesting. Nope. I was wrong!!! The matches themselves, don't come close to intersting. :D

It's these damn refs who are ruining the tourney; they blew the previous record for issuing yellow and red cards out of the water. Let men play like men, not like boys (although some of them act as such).

What's a world cup? Ooooooooh it's that gay sport where everyone goes down like they have been shot then jumps up after getting a foul called. Gotcha, soccer. Missing every game to date and my life remains enriched.

What sport are we talking about again
 
I was looking for that link to Home Depot, Lowe's or some home improvement store. With all of the wall paint drying, fans, and grass growning being talked about and all.

Then I thought this was a thread about the NBA finials, didn't see one. I had to do a search to make sure - Nothing.

So I thought kool a NBA Thread with all of the bad Ref calls, and guys falling down as if they had been shot or something. People running up and down a playing field over a game, scoring points and all.

But, then I read about the PKs and then I know this had to be a Rugby Thread. Now thats sport that has some crazy fan, Refs running up and down the field, guys falling down as if they have been shot. Maybe being grab in your balls - right DDD?

This is about the iRB Rugby Wold Cup? Great Thread.

Well, Germany blew it. They were two freakin' minutes from penalty kicks which they had a really good chance at winning and they gave up not one but TWO goals in a minute. Pathetic. Honestly I think the Germans gave up after the first goal. It didn't eve look like any German players were running when Italy scored the second time. Unless Portugal plays really awesome or France plays really poorly tommorow it's going to be Italy vs. France for the final. Damnit!

For the final what???

What was this thread about again??

Ohhh that's right...painting tips and how to watch it dry. :D

As expected France beat Portugal but they did not play as well as expected. Portugal put up a pretty good fight but couldn't quite get the ball into the net. If France plays like this against Italy they will get spanked. As much as I don't like Italy, I hate France and I would love to see them get stomped.

:D But damn!!! I finally have a bit of interest. I just want France to lose. Not that I'll watch it.

What do think the score will be? 0/0? 1/0? 0/1? Or a fluke? Two or more goals between one/or both of the teams? :eek:

France and Italy - ought to be a hoot - will France surrender? Will Italy throw in with the Germans? Or will both sides just sit down and have a glass of wine? I don't mind watching Soccer but there is just waaaaay too much hype for this.

Not that my chosen sport (sailing) is spectator friendly - but at least sailors have an e&e mechanism when they are not competing.

The Final : I know Italy will win.
The Score : There is going to be a first in World Cup play.....

Italy ... 0
Phrance ... -1

Phrance will surrender even before they hit the field, will complain that the Italian players are Blood Doping and it's all Lance Armstrong's fault.

So the World Cup officials will give the Phrench team a "Negative" score....just because they're Phrench.

Besides....I just can't see a shootout in this game......Phrance and shootout just don't go together.....it doesn't "sing". :D
