It's football, not soccer and France and Italy will play in the finals.

Did you people know that soccer is short for association football? Who let Sherlock Holmes in?! Anyway, the only reason "soccer" is in use at all is because Yanks have a daft game that's a bit like rugby, only the sissies wear helmets and shite - for some unknown reason they call that "football", despite it consisting mainly of the dunderheaded jocks running up the field with the ball under their arm. The rest of the world sees "football" as the game currently being played in Germany. You know, the one that's an actual sport rather than a TV show? |

WOOT my namesake proudly helped Portugal to hand England their ass on a platter ![]() Now, now Ano! That's not nice ![]() I have to say France, as my (not so patriotic) 6yr old daughter has been determined they will win from day 1! _____________________

Obviously, you've never played rugby... yes I have, my roommate in college was English and talked me into playing on the school team. However since I am a football coach, I take offense when people say it is not a sport. |

And thank God it was an honest team that made it to the final as Portugal were shameful (worse than against both Holland and England).
I'd go as far as to call their antics cheating. Allez les bleus!! _____________________

It'd be like barry bonds, in his last game, beating a guy with a bat. _____________________

Well, it wasn't the end of his career, just the last time he will play internationally. He will still continue on the regional teams. But still, hes gotta regret that one. |

I imagine the italian said something really bad to the big man for him to respond like that.. and after that final.. I bet the entire population of france are gald he pwned the little shite like he did. _____________________

Zidane has retired from football,not just just international duty. Sad way for a football legend to end his career though. He was a magnificent player,one of the best I have ever seen.
Conrats to the Italians. This should help give the fans of Serie A a boost what with all the corruption/match fixing scandal and threat of relegation for 4 or 5 of the top teams. |
