World Cup Round-up

Comments on Quarter Final Results World Cup Deutchland 2006:

- In the rematch of the 1990 Final, zee Germans somehow beat Tony & Argentinas wedding. I dont get it... why? WHY? Why and how do the Germans manage to show up and contend for every World Cup, even though they have had a mediocre side for the last decade and a half? They manage to pull off the"more success with less talent" phenomenon better than the Bad News Bears and the Non-Teen Wolf basketball team combined.

- The Eye-tys demolished the Ukraines. No Contest. Its was like comparing Prada to Gap. The Azurri better beat the Germans in the semis... cuz I cant stand them making another World Cup Final.

- Ingerland lost on Penalties to the Portuguese... hahahaha. Surprise surprise. This game was over as soon as extra time ended, cuz Ingerland is absolute crap at Penalties... they cant win em, lose every single time they come to them and its become so bad over the years its grown into a collective national pyschological block and a well publized symbolic noose around their neck. The look in the eyes of English lads before taking their Penalties was priceless, its the same look you see on a guy moments before opening the results to his std test, because of unprotected sex with a Nigerian Hooker. Absolute horror, with a fair share of no confidence whatsover combined with a smidge of prayer. Basically a Vancouver beer league soccer team could beat England on Penalties. Hell a high school girls team could beat Ingerland on Penalties, as well. After 4 penalities, only one guy scored for England, and he was Canadian (Owen Hargreaves).

- Biggest upset and shock for me: Brazil playing absolutely shite, and France turning back the clock to 1998, playing crazy amazing, especially Zizou who must of took Viagra before the game or something. France had not played this masterfully in years, yet they pulled off two great games when it counted going against first my Spanish and then the World Champions. Im confident though that Les Bleu used up their Three free Genie wishes.. Forca Portuguese!

- If all things go right, this sets up a Portugal Italy Final. Oh My GOSH... East Van is gonna turn into the Gaza Strip..

Nols, you made it 50% on your Portugal-Italy prediction in the final. But ur 100% right on East Van turning into the Gaza strip. Jin, Denis, some other peeps and I will be the lowly Canadian forces braving the frontlines watching the world cup on Commercial Drive this weekend. I'm trying to convince Denis to sport his brand-spanking new France jacket for some fun with the Italians.
