Football

I was in Israel last week and it was incredible the number of Brazilian flags everywhere !!!

Israeli drivers are not much better though...probably even worse.
And what the f*ck do you Israelis have with your tsofar hu? :Smug: :D
But I was amazed by the people respecting red lights and zebra crossings. I'm not used to this :D

BC-A, what's wrong with you? Complimenting Israelis on their driving skills?
You know I usually don't say any negative things, but here I don't agree. They are quite aggresive drivers. I compare it to Parisians driving... or even Romans!
Well, what I am saying is that I didn't have any problems being a pedestrian in Israel.
In France, it's scary (at least in the south)

Germany vs. Sweden

is going to be an interesting match!
as much as I want sweden to win...i think it's pretty hopeless
germany is way better plus the home advantage

good luck for all the orange ones out there against argentina
 
Damn- it's 0-0 playing against Argentina.
And yes, I'm very much looking forward to the coming matches. Only thing is that half of the Dutch are dressed in orange all of a sudden and I'm telling ya, it does not look good on everyone. Is our nation that is getting carried away over this football thing? I see whole blocks of streets dressed up in the national flag, little orange flags on lines for miles, people making some kind of orange display in their front yards. I'll try to post some pictures because it looks funny.
 
it was the fest of the music in France, some music in every town, city, house
it's one per year so I didn't want to miss it watching the match sorry for Holland

Well I am an adict of the worldcup, I cannot deny it! I love to see the matches and some football players of course, hahaha!!! I also used to collect lot of graphic information but this year cannot be possible...

By the way Mexico is playing terrible!!!! They only make the things worse!!!that´s why I also finish supporting other country, and to be honest I am still angry with Brazil when them left France win on 1998, ha, but maybe I can gave them another opportunity, hahahahahaa.... but it is not one of my fauvorites!

But well I try to see all the matches I support Argentina (hahaha I dont care if Mexico goes against it, well a little, but at least i like them more than other countries), Spain is not going bad, i have always loved Italy (but how I miss Maldini, hahaha), Germany is not bad but...., i support Ukrania ;) and I dont remember more... hahaha

but well I keep informed day by day of the matches, and when it isn´t possible see all live I "see" some matches repetitions while working on a very special thing for Orphaned Land... later you will know about... :)

woo now i'm curious
about the world cup i didn't watch any of the matches of this cup yet but in my heart i support argentina :kickass:
i'd sure love to watch a match between them and brazil
 
So, we have the first surprise of the turnament. Ghana goes through the second round and Czech Republic is out.

Although the Czechs were unlucky with the injuries of many regular players, I feel that it was a fair result. The Africans played very good football, but I don't think that they can annoy Brazil.

I am waiting for the evening matches, especially Croatia - Australia.
 
Well were through and we miss the Krauts and the Argis! Bring on Ecquador! Their do-able then the Dutch then Brazil (old, fat Ronaldos lost it!). Let the Krauts and Agris kick each other to peices and meet one of them in the final and then....LOSE! HA HA (No Wozz your an English patriot so lets do it again) WIN!!!!! :headbang:
 
So, Australia is on the second round, Croatia is out.

I'm waiting to watch the whole match on greek television later, but I'm sure that it was superb.

It's a pity for Croatia who had a good team and I think that at the second equaliser the Australian scorer (Kewell) was off-side.

The couples of the last 16 so far

Brazil - Ghana
Italy - Australia
Argentina - Mexico
Portugal - Holland
Germany - Sweden
Ecuador - England
