My opinion of the fact that the "World" Cup has the same teams as always...

Any time Beasty!

That pitch had to get a little messy after that... at least no one could fake a fall in that area.

Did America get thru (note spelling) to the quarter finals of the Soccer World Cup?

*deathly silence and embarassed shuffling of feet*

HA!

You've proved my point exactly, Frobisher - no one but the same teams are in the quarterfinals. Only 1 of the quarterfinals teams have never been there, and they were there as part of the Soviet Union.

Aww Nate - The world cup is one of life's very few honest meritocracies . . . hence the USA getting booted out in the group stage.

Vlad (or should I say M.Y.) - if by meritocracy you mean the referee HANDING THE GAME over to the Brazilians, French, and Italians, then by all means consider football to be decided on "merits".

Lippy - I'm sure I could find a worse picture ;-)

David Beckham and rainbow showers. Two fetishes in one.

COME ON ENGLAND.

(Well, perhaps just on the David Beckham part of the team.)

Except he won't be in it any more :(

Nateyboy!

If you just witnessed the Italy v. Germany game, you'll know why no other sport comes close.

Doesn't it make you blush to compare the beauty, artistry and loving passion of tonight's match with silly American games designed to fill brief periods between commercials?
