Football (soccer) World Cup 2002

[SuperMinh]

I know you guys in the US don't really love this sport but around here in Europe it's THE great event of this summer.

 

So, my question is: who do you think is going to win this year's cup ?

 

My bet is on France

 

I think Argentina's got a good chance as well.

[Piastre]

The result of the WC is a foregone conclusion.

 

ITALY!

[Piastre]

A little blind faith isn't too much to ask for is it?

 

 

LOL

Lol Euro 2000......ahh

 

You should see my Italian friend every time I mention that to him. It's a good opportunity to learn some Italian swear words.

[Piastre]

I could accomodate you there Jiggy, but I'm far too well mannered for that! LOL

 

At least the Aussie cricket team are back in winning, sledging top form!

[Jiggy9]

That was indeed a classic thrashing that was handed out to South Africa...It'd be interesting to see where the tournament goes from here.

[Piastre]

I've never seen the South Africans defeated mentally like they are.

 

They're playing like a tired, dispirited rabble.

 

NZ on the other hand, are playing exceptionally well, and Chris Cairns is absolutely brilliant presently

[Ahazmaksya]

Chris Cairns is a legend.

 

101 runs off, was it 98 balls?

 

He is going to have to play really well against Australia, because we are finally getting back on track.

[Piastre]

He's certainly a lot better than his old man!

 

At last we are rolling. But like a good trainer having his horse peak on exactly the right day, Steve Waugh was bringing us up slowly.

 

Whoever we face in the finals....beware!

 

God I hope we make the finals LOL
