Z, what no Argentinian?????????<VBG> I know, isn't that ironic ? I have all the ingredients.... but I guess I got lucky and the stork took the wrong turn... Wheeeeuuuuu, that was a close call, imagine that, me an Argentinean..? It makes me shiver sometimes..... Remember that if Argentina was not a country, Walt Disney would have invented them... or was that Mexico? Oh no, that was Kafka.... As far as injuries getting more serious as years go by, try refereeing , it's fun. You won't believe what some parents do and say during the games!! Now, look here George, you are getting personal now... ME A REFEREE ? I do not think so, I would rather do something really silly before being one of those with the whistle, like.... play baseball, or design carnival dresses, or being a bishop, or even be an Argentinean... before a referee.... Still can't comprehend what actually happened today...Norway going home with 7 minutes left ends up winning the game to beat Brazil (first loss since 1990 in the WC). And seeing the stunned Moroccons coming off the field and their coach kicking the bench when he found out the Norway result... Strange indeed... the Trolls pulled some serious Viking Voodoo, surely they must have bribed the Reggae Boyz Chief Shaman to go an inspire some hidden Norse Evil spirit to cancel the Brasileiros own magic.... Remember? I told you bureaucrats can kill you....and do not forget that Brasil has never beaten the Norsemen: 2 x 4; 1 x 1 and now 1 x 2. Well it is history now, matter not as Brasil is on the second round and frankly they will take revenge on the poor Chileans that fizzled out after their game with Italy.... A moment of silence for the poor Scots. ................................................................ I think they should concentrate on some ancient sport like log throwing or bag-pipe blowing, or Nessie watching or.... Nymph chasing... who knows??! Folks, it doesn't get any better than this, and we are not done with the first round yet. Can you imagine Nigeria winning the Cup ???!! Those "Super Eagles" would go nuts and have a heart attack from the surprise..... Watch these guys cut some giant heads.... I am certainly enjoying this World Cup. Z
