Re: The official world cup thread
Well, that was quite an unceremonious exit for Zidane. Nasty stuff.

Re: The official world cup thread
So we won the World Cup...
I don't like football,and the only team I was of,the USA,has been eliminated.
I'm listening the sounds from outside...my English Setters that play <woof,woof>,fireworks and car clacson.
The nearest town is about 2 kilometers away,but everything is clear!

Now I know that Trayus is Italian too,well..greetings!

Re: The official world cup thread
Uh.....no. I'm not Italian, but I fell in love with Italy when I visited two months ago, and I heard that they hadn't won one since '82, so I thought they deserved it.

As to the "Forza Italia" thing, that was all over political posters in Rome. I looked it up, and found out it was a football battle cry. It seemed the appropriate thing to say just now, is all.

Having said that though, I'm quite happy for Italy.  Congratulations!  :)

Re: The official world cup thread
hmm

crikey.

Well, I was marginally favouring France, until Zidane made a twat of himself (and ****ed up my fantasy footie team - ta muchly for that), but, um, meh.  I have to admit being a wee bit disappointed with the match itself.

Congratulations Italy, of course, whom everyone seemed to be wrongly writing off in the start despite being on a superb pre-tournament run.

Quoted for Truth.

I lost all sympathy for the French after that. All across the world one billion people are wondering what the **** he was thinking.

Re: The official world cup thread
That was definitely weird about Zidane. Whatever mother of all insults made him do that, Materazzi is probably writing it down right now to remember it for future matches. Reminds me of some Monty Python sketch about a deadly joke and, well, that was about as close to a deadly insult as I've ever seen in a football game :p

Not much of a case considering that it's beach volleyball season :)
