Hang in there the NFL season begins soon.
Stock up on your steroids and human growth hormone now. It's going to be a long NFL season. Bend over and take it like a man.
Let's rock n roll baby. The elimination matches continue.
Go Brazil and show us the beauty on the big stage.
France it's put up time with the streak against Spain on the line.
Let's Do It!!!!
Come on Ghana!! Pull one out of your tails :) (not that I'm pulling for Ghana but it gives the English an easier trip to the final)
You European-types always resort to the gay sex thing, don't you?
I don't think you'll find many takers for your gay propositions on FR, though. Maybe your favorite bathhouse would be a better place to start.
Please give it up guys.
Time for some great football soon.
Cheers.
Come on Ghana!
Not sure who I want to win in the Ghana/Brazil game, but I'm sure pulling for Spain.
All I know is that 10 Italians are better than 11 Australians ;-)
Actually, the Aussies played a heck of a match. They outplayed Italy for most of the match. It was a shame it had to end as it did.
As long as Italy wins the Cup, I'll be happy. Not as happy as if the US team had played as they are capable of, but at this point, I'll settle.
There is plenty of room in my world for both NFL and Soccer...
I'm a NY Jets season ticket holder but the NFL season is relatively short. Having been stationed in many parts of the globe, I absolutely love the international aspect of the World Cup. Wake me up when NFL provides the exciting matchup of USA v Italy, or Mexico v Iran or Portugal v Angola (where Angola was a Portugese colony until the 1970s). I guess you get my point.
Yeah, then it's proponents can huddle together and take pride in being Number One in a sport nobody else plays.
184 nations competed for the 32 spots in the World Cup. There are currently 192 nations.
Thanks for the ping.
There has got to be a shocking upset somewhere, and since the Aussies didn't beat Italy, the only shocker left is Ghana over Brazil. So go with Ghana.
Take a hike. I'm an American in NYC, not a European type. Like you'd know.
Now bend over we have your fix to get to 300 pounds. Steroids and donuts.
Ole!
Did you read that a Juve executive jumped out of an office building today?
He apparently is still alive, but badly hurt.
Gianluca Pessotto.
Go Brazil,Spain! I don't hate the Ghanans. They're nice, humble, etc. But I still don't think they should be there. We should. So, Go Rinaldhino!
Are you serious? Do you have a link? That's pretty awful.
