America will have its a** handed to it in a...

a.) Paper bag
b.) Gucci hand bag
c.) a salami skin after being fed through the grinder

Either (a) or ©, because the Gucci Group is not Italian. :wink:

I should have put d.) Italians stuff themselves in a salami!!

Hi,

I'm just watching Chechia (or however it is spelled) / Ghana, and Ghana leads with 2:0. Who'd have thought that. But they're fun to watch, not afraid of the more experienced teams at all.

Huh! Ghana gave us a painful lecture of how to play football. The score could easily have been 8:0 (no, I'm not exaggerating) for Ghana. In fact the only good Czech player in this match was Petr Čech, our goalkeeper.
Now if we want to continue in the tournament, we must beat Italy. And this will be difficult.

Are you sure this joke isn't about the Italians and USA?!

How embarassing! Either God loves us or hates the Italians.

FIX!!! Someone call FIFA!! :wink:

Well done I always knew Italy were rubbish at football, they were just bluffing all these years...

[Praefectusclassis]

It certainly makes that group very interesting!

It sure does

Hmmm, tut tut

No doubt the Americans are learning the all time classic phrase "The referee's a ..."

Option A: winker
Option B: banker
Option C: (do I really need to spell it out?)

Travis, over to you.

C - Warmduscher, it is.

And, dear Americans, soccer is not football. You don't get points for the number of opponents you knock out.

Hi,

Actually they are doing pretty good beating themselves!! I don't know who the USA paid off but I hope Czech do beat them. After the drubbing they gave the US, it would just be comical for the Czechs to be beaten by the Italians who offed themselves.

Question:

Do I have a "warmduscher" and if so, have I ever seen it without the aid of a mirror?

And, dear Americans, soccer is not football. You don't get points for the number of opponents you knock out.

EVERYTHING in America becomes a contact sport over time. My dad remembers that when you used to play basketball the object was NOT to club everyone to death. In twenty years times, American golf will require the use of a helmet and cup.

[Goffredo]

Well
I finally decided who I'll be rooting for from now on (until they get eliminated). Ghana!!!!

I hope they go far enough for a Ghana-Brazil. Never liked Brazilians with their arrogant laziness.

[Lepidina]

So does the Ugandan ref for the Italy-US game get the nomination for the WORST ref of all time? Egads.

What a game.

Ghana-Brazil would be interesting tho' Brazil isn't playing up to their usual standards.

Er...have I mentioned I'm Swedish on my mother's side? It's not too late to consider my loyalties is it? :wink:

Well I look more like the second one so I guess I better just face up to it. I'm a Scouser. I never got invited to those kinda parties anyway.:roll:

Some predictions for the US-Ghana game, which is more improbable?

1.) The Ghanans will score against themselves.
2.) The Americans will score.
3.) The ref will declare himself "God of Football"

[Tarbicus]

3.) The ref will declare himself "God of Football"

There's only one ref qualified for that title

[Jona Lendering]

The ref will declare himself "God of Football"

No, no, no. The ball is God. In the sixth century BCE, they already knew that. Xenophanes, for example, knew that God must be one and must be perfect. The only perfect shape in the universe is the sphere. Consequently, God is a ball. Q.E.D.
