World Cup 2006

Post by **ddem1** » Sun Jun 04, 2006 1:23 pm

Well right now I'm watching a friendly between Australia and Netherlands. Now those are quality teams, unlike USA which is a pile of untalented crap.

I mean Donovan! DONOVAN!!!

Australia wont suck in the cup cause they have a coach with magic hands i mean he took KOREA to semifinal in 2002,than there is a chance for Australia.

Kewell's not playing right now. I don't see him. Australia's in shit without Kewell.

Well, we need to kick Australia's ass. Then Croatia and Brazil will go on

Japan is also decent, meh Croatia will win

I don't remember Kewell playing any good last couple of seasons, just like Viduka. They're both kinda getting old and shitty. No offense.

Croatia are lucky they are in a easy group but they will bitch slapped in the last 16 when they meet a good team

Nah we mostly lose from the weak teams. We did beat Argentina in a friendly

If you are talking about the coach called "Guus Hiddink" then you are badly mistaken, because he sucks. You see, the KOREA World Cup was all one big set up. Brazil was ment to win and so was it ment to be that Korea would end up in the first 4. If you had watched the WC 2002, it wasnt difficult to see that all those referees were corrupted. Btw, I kinda like the USA soccer team. They are fairly new into soccer, but they are good losers unlike other countries.
I would also love to see the outfits of the japanese soccer team. They always have cool dragons on it and stuff.

You are a true italian paraniod and blaming everyone else for what happens with Italy

Paraniod and blaming others for thier fiasco was the sickest thing i have heard after italy lost to korea.

Instead blaming the crappy team play,they blamed everyone else.

Some of the refs sucked but still thats part of the game.

Spain was robbed more than Italy but they didnt blame everyone else like the italians.

Post by **ddem1** » Sun Jun 04, 2006 7:24 pm

Ah yes Italy also lost from Croatia in 2002

Post by **Libaax** » Sun Jun 04, 2006 7:28 pm

Will Croatia meet Brazil game 1? If so poor your team.

Post by **ddem1** » Sun Jun 04, 2006 7:45 pm

Well if we can beat Argentina I can't see why not Brazil, but yup, I highly doubt we will win

The host country always does well (above expectations) so I'm voting for Germany to win. But Brazil is filled with superstars, so I'm saying final game, Brazil vs Germany. Germany wins in sudden death.

Germany dont have as good players as 2002 while Brazil has Ronalinho,Kaka,Adriano,Robinho etc who werent as good as now in 2002.

If someone will beat Brazil it be a great team like Argentina,Italy,Spain not a team fueled on nothing but home court advantage.

Its amazing how worked up you guys/gals get about "football"

I mean my hats off to those who play, but I cant watch that sport unless it the highlights on sports center... the roits are cool too

Post by **Libaax** » Mon Jun 05, 2006 9:38 pm

I find American "football" more boring than curling cause it only last a sec or so. I hate all the breaks and the actual game is boring.

So each is to his thing or i dont how the saying goes.

feel the same way

Not much of a sports fan at all but if I had to pick my favorite sport it would be High School and College Wrestling... Hardest sport you could ever join, no break, no time outs (except for blood and injuries), and no substitution. for six minutes... you think that is not long, you try it then tell me that is not a long time.

I wrestled for 4 years. Boxing is harder.

BLASPHEMY!!!!!! Italians were more robbed than anyone else!!! Ok, I had pity with spain and their penaltys... but come on!! It was clear that those refs were corrupted. I don't mind refs making mistakes, but it seemed too much of a coincidence that they only made mistakes against italy. I don't mind Italy losing this WC, as long as Brazil doesn't win.

FORZA ITALIA!

Well if Brazil will play good, why shouldn't they win? Who will play the most attractive football, should win in my opinion. But unfortunately that's not always the case - *ehem* Greece...

Greece doesn't even participates in the World Cup. I still can't believe they won the Europe Cup. Well miracles do happen.

Post by **ddem1** » Tue Jun 06, 2006 7:58 pm

Yeah serves the right. And it proves they were just lucky bastards on Euro

Post by **panasonic** » Tue Jun 06, 2006 8:50 pm

it was a pretty big fluke. if i remember correctly, all the good teams ended up playing each other, while greece got to face most of the weaker teams

Post by **Libaax** » Tue Jun 06, 2006 11:24 pm

They were lucky plus the big team they met sucked.

Thats why i root for Brazil and Spain cause they always play attractive football and i love seeing that kind of football winning.
