The Official European Football Thread

No one and I mean no one in America gives a flying fuck about the World Cup.

Watching grown men chases a ball up and and up and down and up and down a pitch for 3 hours and still no score is ridiculous.

Yeah cos validation from America is what most of the planet really needs

Competing against other countries at football gets it out of peoples system.

Since the World Cup began in 1930 the US has been involved in 48 wars - coincidence?

And if none of you can come up with an anti Scotland zinger from that setup then I have no respect for you.

[ELVIS]

I can come up with a few...

Which rugby team? The way the English team play union is very dull, but the Rugby League team is very exciting to watch.

I mean the national team. It gets me mad how they will keep pushing and eventually rely on penalty kicks to score - that fucking pain in the nuts Wilkinson (always so ridiculously meditative in that stupid posture of his...
Anyway, there will be another striker, but at least I hope he'll be far less exasperating.

As for the football team, it's completely different, they play a bold, intersting game. I still think they were a bit unlucky in '98, as they came close to playing the final, as the Dutch team did. Both were very strong teams and played attractive games.
The Dutch did well 4 years ago, the English team hasn't done anything great ever since, but I'll watch their matches.

Ahhh, you mean Rugby Union. There are two types of Rugby: League (which is the better game) and Union (which is the one you're referring too). Yes, the Wilkinson era was dull to watch. They've been a little more exciting in recent years, however.

And they are less violent in finals...

[jero]

or in semi finals

I can't believe my eyes, Jero! Is it really you posting, or DLN who's hijacking your account?

[jero]

Lol! it will soon turn into a war zone

[Jérôme Frenchise]

I hope so! The last 2 Cups were awesome here, there needs to be another frantic DLN/Jero ping-pong!
