The only thing cool about
Italy winning was that
their victory was
upstaged by Zidanes
miraculous head-butt and
the Italian Soccer League
scandal

I usually like to stay
under the radar but since
Ive managed to scoop up
all of your money without
even breaking a sweat I
figured I say afew
words...Like myself all
the true Italians in the
neighborhood knew that we
would dominate...its
unfortunate that you guys
couldnt of had the same
foresight. I mean when
you think about it you
guys didnt really have a
chance...a full blooded
Italian picking Italy to
win it...I mean I almost
feel bad...not really
though. As for Robert
Cann, you piece of dog
shit, I have more class
in my left testical than
you do in your whole
body...nice performance
in the pool by the
way...you really
impressed me. All jokes
aside thanks for letting
me play, i'll see you in
4 years and I'll get that
money to Dan asap...

ahhhhh, i cracked to top
10 and beat my old man!
dan this is Rob Cann, i
sent my check today,
sorry for the delay. Just
so everyone knows who won
the pool, joey is a short
wannabe italian, 5 foot 3
to be exact with a really
small head, who hangs out
at the jersey shore and
spends most of his
depressed sunday mornings
at massage parlors
getting washy-washies
with happy endings for a
buck 25. a real winner,
we should all be proud

so joey wins. ford in
second.
i loved the way italy
played today. i love
cann-avaro. and i have
been waiting since 98 for
del piero to score a
world cup goal. inspiring
game.
doug, looks like your
cheeks are parted now
buddy. i guess its
better to be taking it
from joey than from jeff
agoos and football
aficionado ben wolff like
stroble is.
and doug, keep in touch,
i hope the a-braves will
be worth watching as the
season goes on, good luck
job searching and let me
know when you plan to
visit charlotte.

I could be wrong, but

LBCIV,
What's goin on these
days? Sorry I missed
your post last week; I've
been out of town for the
better part of two weeks.
Got 3 more weeks of
school left here in
G-ville, and then who
knows. Still giving ATL
+ Charlotte a hard look.
I've got an ATL trip
planned for late July;
I'll give you a shout
when I get my plans
solidified. How bout the
Mutterland; Go Germany!

argentina deserved a win,
but doug gets credit for
picking the home nation,
which so many people
didn't. what a well
played game thoug, the
two teams who work the
ball better than any
other team in the world,
so few give aways. it's a
shame not to watch them
play again.

Can there be fair reffing
in any World Cup match?
Mexico just got ripped
right before half with no
red card issued to
Argentina on a sure
breakaway. It is like
the 100th awful call I've
seen in this stupid Cup.
Referees are directly
affecting outcomes.
Soccer needs instant

are going to continue to

get a whopping three

group where i missed one
of the team to qualify

okay. here is the problem
i have with this system:
i picked Italy and Ghana
to qualify first and
second in the group as
they did. I get a grand
total of 2 points from
the group despite calling
this upset correctly.
Ghana plays Brasil as I
have it and of course i
picked brasil, so i get
no reward.

do you have reality tv

option on a reality show
about our homeless soccer
team. I had to defer to
the homeless world cup hq
in scotland, but the
offer is still on the
table. the hwc has it's
schedule for the pace of
publicity, so we'll find
the lawyers are
talking--it's fun idea,

could have fucked the hwc

3 out 16 picked a tie for
the mex v. angola game,
and what do we get...1
measley fucking point,
but some jerk off hits
the exact score on a game
everyone picked and gets
three, that makes sense,
right?...flawed system,
although larry will
insist that it is his
intelect that allows him
(or other superior soccer
followers) to pick within
a score range that will,
over the course of the
tournament, show he can
predict scores more
accuratley than the next
person. for example he
knew based on argentina's
past world cup history
and qualifying results
and the form of the star
players whether they
would win 6-0 rather than
5-0....ill believe that
