Zebra, did not think your life soo difficult, would have thought you work off taxpayers money. No matter, board full of wrong estimates one more or less not important. I heard older ladies become fashion for boys like zebra but did not know its everything for them. Again learned something, thanks.
Dutch Goldfinger probably already changed board name.

Old socks and Santa Klaus say Good bye and good luck to everybody.

x y zebra...It appears that you have not only mixed your
two favorite sports (soccer and international relations),
but you have also made a profit. <g>

Klaus and Goldfinger have now two things in common, both lost in World Cup, '98 and both lost to evil Croatians, the giant head chopper of World Cup '98 - True, so were the combined efforts against
Mexico and Yugoslavia.

Referees -
Agressively defensive teams such as Italy, Germany, Argentina, and
England did not adapt to the change in calls for yellow and red
cards during this WC. It is a questionable decision by FIFA to
bring forward a change (IMO positive) during a once in every 4
year world event.

The by product of the new type of calls has resulted in players
diving trying to draw fouls. (should be investigated)

Again, although long term positive, such a change (experiment) is not for a WC. Especially if a different type of play was tolerated to
get teams to the WC the past two years.

North American NHL hockey is gradually changing this.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The Dutch team is a true disappointment for their fans. All that talent and not the corresponding tenacity for an entire game.

Versus Croatia - Kluivert is not Brazilian - he should have shot right away instead of cutting the ball back to his right and then trying to finesse it to the top right corner.

The Dutch were tiptoeing through the Tulips instead of scoring.

Bergkamp - received no benefit of any call in the last three games.
Could this have been because of his stupid foul, near the Yugoslavian corner, that was not called, but perhaps later discovered on a video.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The chimichurri was (is) excellent!!! I am still using it with different meats... Next batch will have more garlic.
Marinade or just brushing it on...chicken, steak, hamburgers, hot dogs.....Thank you...

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope today's game is not decided by penalty kicks, the teams stay
even strength and is not as boring as the last two WC finals.
