Look on the bright side (for you): Netherlands got futher than Belgium.Originally posted by Umfriend View Post
Some newspaper twisted the words of a Belgian football player, after they lost the match to Argentina. They claimed he said: "But we will not loose from them next time, in the European Championship."
And there were so many jokes on the English team...

Before the worldcup, the English players went to visit an orphanage in Brasil. "It is so sad to see those faces, without hope, without prospect.", said Jose, age 6.

What is the difference between a teabag and the English team? The teabag stays longer in the cup.

Anyway, Netherlands did nice. Always a shame not to get further, but at least they did not lose 1-7...

Expectations prior to the cup were that me would not make it past the qualification, with Spain and Chile in our group. They did very well and a lot of the younger players have grown during this cup. I hope they get their act together and beat Brazil 8-0 ;-).
Ah well, another world cup in four years and the European cup in two. All is good.
I hope and expect Germany will beat Argentina squarly.Join MURCs Distributed Computing effort for Rosetta@Home and help fight Alzheimers, Cancer, Mad Cow disease and rising oil prices.

I'm no football fan either... But ok, a thread on football once every couple of years is not too bad...Originally posted by Brian Ellis View Post
What? And it is such a nice tense season: duel between Mercedes drivers, RedBull behind, Ferrari and McLaren not where they should be...Originally posted by Umfriend View Post
Sure, the races can be boring, but the technical side and general unfolding of the current season is interesting.

The games are over, but you have a couple of more days of analysis, chatter about the riots in Argentina and Gotze's goal.Originally posted by Brian Ellis View Post“Inside every sane person there’s a madman struggling to get outâ€

The World Cup is hardly over when the BBC consecrate two channels, out of four, in prime time, to boring athletic games.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
