DZJ 0 #26 June 26, 2008 Quote No commercial breaks - you'll have to wait 45 minutes to pour away your beer - and then you just enjoy another 45 minutes to fill up your reservoir again Of course, the great thing about most American beers is they can be infinitely recycled, what with them tasting the same coming out as going in.....

TheAnvil 0 #28 June 27, 2008 Nice! Spain has one HELL of an offense. The Germans will have to play some decent defense, but I think they'll win. I say Germany, 2 - 0.

Botellines 0 #30 June 27, 2008 Quote David! Where are you? Will you be there next Sunday watching your team going to hell in a handbasket?? So it will be Spain - Germany. 0:2 on Sunday .. Cya Christel I will be there, even if it is only as an excuse to drink beer (not a big soccer fun) I think you got the score right although in the wrong order. In any case, it will be fun, even without bleeding noses. Hell, if we didn´t start a fight with the italians how are we going to pick on the germans. For those who didn´t see the Italy - Spain match there was over 45 faults over the entire game; one every couple of minutes.So everybody have fun and see you here on sunday for a little "rubbing it in your face" session.

TheAnvil 0 #31 June 27, 2008 If Germany decides they want to play defense, then they win. If they just show up to shoot it out with Spain, they lose. Looking forward to the game.

BillyVance 34 #32 June 27, 2008 I just saw this in FOX Sports on MSN.com http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/8288178?MSNHPHMA What? No more trophies in soccer/football for kids in England? England hasn't won a world cup since 1966. Bet they never will again.

masterblaster72 0 #33 June 27, 2008 Quote And why is sports being discussed in Speakers Corner? Shouldn't it be in The Bonfire? Because it's soccer, which is more important than politics. I'll be rooting for Germany on Sunday, both teams are playing really well and it should be a great final. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First New Zealand invented RUGBY ( all Kiwis know this for a fact!)! England gave it a go.... Kept on dropping the ball....Then decided it wasnt worth all the time an effort to keep on picking it up.....Made the ball round and there you have it!!! A slightly less interesting game than Ruby Union was invented. .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheAnvil 0 #43 June 28, 2008 I was in Tanzania - either just coming down from Kilimanjaro, when England crushed Germany 5-1 in Munich. All the Germans were getting no mercy from the Brits! Apparently it caused all sorts of issues for the Germans that year for some reason - they told me but I forgot. My office mate predicts a Spanish win...so i'm hoping Germany wins so I get a free lunch on Monday. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

vortexring 0 #44 June 28, 2008 Christel, I'll bet you 10 Euros Spain win! Still, who would have bet on Turkey beating the Czech Republic, and Croatia!It's almost as bad as Greece beating the Czech Republic last time! Still, looking forward to the game. What is it with you Germans somehow grinding out the results!?p.s. You were lucky against Turkey! 'for it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "chuck 'im out, the brute!"

We're always winning with a giant grindstone hanging around our neck ... But, at the end the only thing counting is: The result. We shall win, that one's for sure. 10 Euros! What kind of bet is that??? I'll let you know my account No. by tomorrow .... Christel dudeist skydiver # 3105 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vortexring 0 #46 June 28, 2008 If Germany do win, who would be surprised? Pretty much nobody I'd think. I've not gone and looked at the bookmakers odds but if 10 Euros doesn't tickle your fancy I'm happy to raise to whatever you like! 1000 Euros? Bank account info by PM only!

christelsabine 1 #49 June 29, 2008 10:0 is a bit too much ... but, one or two more goals would've been OK for them. We just were ... how to say ... not organized. What a desaster. (Idiots!!!!)
