Well, xabi alonso, pepe reina and that hottie Torres anyway. What happened out there? France is not that formidable, but when you add all the racial controversy they had a lot more passion to win out there.

If there is anything that can ruin a sports reputation, it's racisim. I wanted Spain to win, I had friends on the team, Xabi Alonso, Pepe Reina and Luis Garcia, so I wanted them to win and go far, but when you add the whole racisim thing. You've got the whole world wanting you to lose. Just look at that france team, there's like 12 big black guys out there and Thierry Henri kicking a loser racisist coaches ####, i don't care who you are, you wanted them to win.

What's up with the whole racisim ####? #### noises and all that. It's freakin' 2006 get the F over it. Racisim is so last century.

Read the book "How Soccer explains the world". It's awesome. Whole much of bull#### that's happening and has happend in the socer world that I never was a where of.

Anyway it's a shame France is going to lose to stupid Brazil. I can't wait until someone kicks them off their throne. I hate rooting for the favorites.  I do like Kaka and Dida and Cafu though..

and um, by the way Thierry that was a dive bubba. Super dive, you lucky duck. I thought that yellow was going to be for you. Poor Puyol he had a good game. Thierry couldn' not be offsides even he he wanted to, that  back line did good.
