Football wtf
France beat Brazil, wtf? That was a good game, but bloody hell, why were they playing so badly? France dominated the crap out of Brazil. Honestly, the score could have been much higher had France not fucked up a bunch of times in the first half. Apparently this is the first time Brazil doesn't make it into the semi-finals in 20 years. Is this true?

Whatever...I'm happy Brazil is out of this really, I wouldn't have been satisfied with a Brazil win. Happy for Portugal defeating England though, although I didn't catch the entire match, we heard some of it on the radio.

Germany vs. Argentina was hands-down the best match this entire season. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time, and was glad Germany pulled through at the last minute. For a while there it looked like it was going to be a 1-0 game for Argentina. Thankfully, the Germans pulled through and when it came down to the penalties (Germany's forte) I was pretty confident.

Right now, as it stands I am hoping for a Germany/Portugal final with Germany winning. It'll probably be Germany/France though. Not sure who will win that one, but if Zeindine Zidane continues to play like he's been playing the past few matches, France could easily pull out a win.

I'm leaving for Berlin tomorrow! I haven't been out of the Middle East in over a year, so it'll be quite strange.

FUCK! I am so upset that Argentina didn't win! But you gotta hand it to the Germans for pulling through despite the 1-0 Argentina lead. I saw part of the Brazil/France match while I was out on Canada Day, there were a whole bunch of people glued to the screen, while people outside celebrating the greatness of Canada, blah blah blah. Wish I could have seen the whole match 'cause I'm sitting here absolutely clueless as to why they lost...

Have fun in Berlin, schmoozing with the IR peeps... Go nuts at the final! Take lots of pictures! Safe trip and all that jazz!

Brazil played such a bad game that it's not a surprise to me that they lost. Ronaldo threw himself down twice in or around the penalty zone to no avail. If that soccer thing stops being interesting, he can always have a career as a starving actor...with the empasis on the starving rather than actor.

My money is on France winning the cup. Though Germany plays a solid game, by some luck they have been playing against shorties throughout. The height advantage will be neutralized as a factor if they end up playing against France.

Funny how both Germany and France teams consist of mostly non-French and non-German players. Prick on the national egos of both countries. More immigrant cock is what Europe needs.
