i know you meant no offense, but seriously, you are starting to piss me off dude :roll: , maybe it's the way you say things, but the reassons once you gave seem to be senseless, and more that that it seems to be something personal with mexicans, i hope i am wrong because you are a cool guy. :roll: .

@Stealth: hello....enemy! :P
You're right, I mean no offense....perhaps you're right, it's the way I say things. Senseless to you pal, 'cuz you're mexican yourself, but I ain't that, and so from MY point of view...what they're doing on TV is, trust me, HIGHLY ANNOYING and that's why I want them out of the cup. And no, it's not any personal issue, I have many mexicans friends, indeed I do, and I get along with you, too, so, that should put that out of the way. But hey! I want mexico out just as I want USA out of it, so, it's just a soccer thing. Don't mind me. ;) Perhaps we can talk in the MSN?

The Czechs are out. In any case, it's nice to see Ghana in the next round. :)

Yeah, maybe it was a bad mistake to use almost every players from the team in EC 2004... But Czechs also suffered a lot of injuries and suspensions.

And in the 2nd round one my favs is out for sure as Portugal plays against Holland... Bad game, no idea who to support. :wink:

Again you are all justifying the Czech elimination! It's not that they used EC 2004 players or that they had problems with cards, etc. Ghana did what they needed to do and it's their merit. And they defeated the Czechs along the way. Period. Please, no more excuses for the Czechs! :)
Besides, many teams have problems with cards and injuries.

Anyway, Czech team was not good, that´s it. Ghana has right now a good and eager team!

Don't you think that Ghana is an Africa's country and that in Africa they use of marabouts and sorcerers that could get the matchs tricked? :roll:

Ans Switzerland really manages to go the next round as they won South Korea 2-0. Also as France won (finally), this means that South Korea, the fourth in their own World Cup 2002, is eliminated. :?

Note: "with el culo en la mano", for the non-spanish speakers around here "bussy" hahaha...

Now, on topic, i only wish both teams to play a worth-watching game, and obviously, expecting the best (if that ever exists) from Mèxico i will have some beers tomorrow :roll:

Seriously....do you guys have the FootieFox extension for Firefox? It's absolutely priceless (especially in a place where nobody really watches or talks about the World Cup).

Is it because you don't like the team, or because you just can't stand French pp ? Just wondering...

I actually wanted the team to be out as well. Just a bench or arrogant and lazy players. Anyway, this is just a stupid game.

After the overtime, Argentina-Mexico 2-1. So the next step will be really tough game, Deutschland against Argentina. Phew. What a game coming! :shock:

I am really happy because Argentina won, and really pissed off because they played the worst game since the cup started. They couldn't even make proper passes!! :x And what the hell is up with the pitches in Germany?!? In this game and in all the other games, LOTS of players slipped and fell... Someone has to do something about the grass!
I can't understand fucking Pekerman!!! I was asking desperately for Messi and Tévez, and Pekerman only made substitutions with 15 minutes left to play! He's a retard! Messi and Tévez should have played from the start! :x
And then, the referee invalidated a goal by Argentina in the 90th minute, when there really was no off-side!
Anyways, after the game I went to a street where Argentines celebrate here in Toronto, and it was amazing. There were like a thousand of us with flags, playing some drums and singing and jumping like crazy. Good stuff! :)
