The big game!!

[jjohnwm]

From what I've seen of your team so far, they might has well play tiddly winks, cos they sure as hell can't play football! Lol.

Lol, if that was supposed to be a shot at me...it missed the mark by a mile. I don't follow sports at all.

When I was in school, I was very active in both baseball and football...that's real football, mind you, not the pansy version with a round ball. But then and now, I have never understand the enjoyment of watching someone else play the game.

It's a bit like porn; why would you want to watch someone else doing it?

There's a time, and a place for porn. On the way home from work on the bus?.... not if you don't want to get arrested!

...or maybe settle down after tea and watch a porn movie with your parents! Yikes, not for me!

...but in the privacy of your own home with the wife, wearing nothing but nipple tassles and crotchless panties? Then that scenario can be quite "explosive".

Mind you, i wouldn't encourage anyone to wear nipple tassles and crotchless panties, as they can be extremely uncomfortable, lol.

We play with an oval ball down here too but don’t need all the pansy helmets and padding.............

Australia vs Tunisia live now, australia winning 1-0.
A much more exciting game than ENG v USA this morning so far

Okay...I'll take your word for it...

And more power to you! To quote an interesting writer I enjoy reading: "Variety is not the spice of life: peril is." You guys know how to put the "sport" back into sports.

You all seem to be pretty serious about this, so pardon my thread derail.

A not so fun fact, the Saudi Prince gifted each player who played in the upset against Argentina a 1.3M dollar Rolls Royce Ghost.

Its all in fun so no need to apologise.

Its an interesting world cup so far, a few upsets and some good games i thought would be boring. Serbia V cameroon last night was a very entertaining match, the joy of the cameroon crowds compared with the grumpy serbs everytime they scored was very amusing.
Everyone seems to have Japan as their 2nd favourite team now after their 1st win.
Australia hanging in there but i dont think they will last much longer and england not living up to the hype after their narrow loss in the euros last year. Most likey one of the big teams will win again but it would be good to see an outsider win the whole thing.

Surprisingly soccer isnt very big at all here in Australia but all the boys at my daughters school are going nuts for it at the moment, every one of them is cvarrying a soccer ball around and supporting a team which is something ive never seen before. When i was a kid you didnt even know the world cup was happening down here,

Well it's crunch time in Group B now. England are pretty much through to the last 16. The USA though can't really afford any slip ups. They need to win against Iran tonight to guarantee their last 16 place. I can't see them slipping up, fingers crossed.
