France. A favorite target of the all-to-typical, Toby Keith lovin' American lout. Yet, here they are, getting close to winning the cup.

Hard to not see Germany as the favorite, but it's wide open at this point. I'll be happy with anyone other than Portugal.

Italy could do it. They're dangerous but not more so than the Germans. The French hate the freakin' Germans. That could be interesting.

The Germans do worry me. But I think, deep down, I was really hoping for an Italian/Brazil rematch of '94.

Vendetta!

Thanks, Italy. Nothing like getting the Germans pissed off about a defeat.

They'll probably take it out on the Poles again.

Holy #&%!$ing #&%!$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it! 2-0 over g
Germany in OT! Scored in the final 2minutes of the second OT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Minute 119 & 120!!!!

The game was pretty even in the first half but Germany completly dominated Italy in the 2nd half. I thought it was over until OT. Italy started playing like they were a whole new team in the OT's. Damn! Best game of the Cup!

I need another drink. Jesus #&%!$ing Christ!

VIVA ITALIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it's soooo cute how the soccer players are all gay together! LOL! Well, very affectionate...I watched the final game, and they looked like they were all about to make sweet love to each other. Too cute!

Did you guys see when the French dude head-butted the guy on the other team?? That was crazy, what a meanie. I wonder what the dude said to him to make him do that...

Now that it's over, I wish I'd watched more games...at least seen David Beckham, that hot little biscuit.

Well that's not very cute, Nigal!

Okay I just saw a story on CNN...the Italian guy did insult the French one...he maybe called him a terrorist, or insulted his mother or sister. Well that clears it right up, LOL!

He said, "HEY so you finally won SOMETHING without the Americans having to bail your surrender weasel butts out."

I think if I had been laying there on the ground I would have said,(french accent) 'Go AWAY or I will Taunt you again."

Anyone else trying to watch the games?

Also, I'd really like to pick a few of those vuvuzelas. I have a few neighbors I'd like to serenade with those things. At 2 am.

Can I get anyone here actually interested in the games?

I'm a great fan of non-American football.

Anyone else?

How badly the US got screwed on Friday makes me wonder how long that referee will be walking around without a big bullet hole in the back of his head.

Unfortunately that is how it seems to work in the futbal world. Lord help him.

He's probably lucky that call was against the USA and not Colombia. Andres Escobar could attest to that. :\

No kidding, LMG.

I keep missing the games I want to catch. I still want a vuvuzela. Or maybe a case of them.

I'm sure your neighbors will enjoy that!

I watch the recaps of the games in the evening on ESPN2 and I still find it amazing at how you can hear the vuvuselas blatting out throughout the entire game.

I think it would be fun to have one at work. If anyone I don't want to listen to starts talking, it would be a handy tool to drown them out.

It would go nicely with my penalty flag that I throw at people. :)
