^My comment wasnt meant to be anything bad against Germany, I was actually saying that England is just unbelievably crap at defense. Our best player that match was David James. -

Alright sorry for misunderstanding that then.
I was kinda upset about the other comments and didn't really think that much before responding to your's it seems. -

Chile to spank the brazilians later today.
Or not.
Tolsimir, if Sweden were up against Germany in the WC I'd have no high hopes. However, when it comes to RCT, Sweden is looking to make an untipped surprise -

Fun fact: On my TV channel where I watched the game (CBC), it pointed out that decades ago, in one of the previous Germany-England FIFA matches, in the 1966 FINAL as I recall, the same thing happened to Germany, a goal denied. In my opinion, in both cases it is good that the fuckupery was cleared up by the team getting more goals, although this of course does not take into account morale. Soccer/football aficionados will probably know of the event of which I speak.
In other news, it's hilarious how into soccer/football I am getting. I actually can watch a full game, and am going to buy a Germany hat tomorrow.
JULY THIRD GERMANY BEATS ARGENTINA
p.s., You know what I like about soccer/football? It's so formal in its terminology. You don't have games, you have matches. You don't win, you are triumphant. You don't get fouls, you "suffer" them. And so on. AND MY FAVORTITE THING OF ALL, YOU DON'T GO FOR OR CHEER FOR A TEAM, YOU "SUPPORT" THEM. LOL
p.p.s., I did kind of feel bad for some of the England fans in the audience. They just looked fucking CRESTFALLEN. I can't imagine what they reallly felt like, because they spend all their lives waiting for this, and got to have their dream and go to FIFA _IN PERSON_. I pretend to be a big fan now with my flags and my hat and shit, but I don't reallllllllllllllllllllllfllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllclllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllkllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly care all that much as I hate sports in general. When big things come around I get psyched (i.e., I was quite happy when my ostensibly favorite football team the New Orelans Saints won the Super Bowl) and all, but I don't care all that much. These England fans in the audience, I did actually feel bad for them kind of because they were just so depressed. Picture five in the slideshow here really sums in up - you can tell those guys dressed as English pilots from days gone by are really sad. Anyways I don't want to get too sentimental here, elsewise some of y'all might think me a faggot or a cunt. Yay for Kevin Enns out-of-nowhere offensiveness.*
p.p.p.s., I do look forward to talking to some of the legions of England fans who come into my work tomorrow. Should be fun.
* It was a joke. Get over it.
p.p.p.p.s., Since the States (my second choice, as I am not your run-of-the-mill "I FUCKING HATE FUCKING AMERICA ON FUCKING PRINCIPLE FOR NO FUCKING REASON OTHER THAN MOST OF THE FUCKING REST OF FUCKING CANADA SEEMS TO FUCKING HATE THE FUCKING STATES SO WE FUCKING SHEEP SHOULD ALL FUCKING HATE FUCKING AMERICA FOR NO FUCKING REASON IN MOST FUCKING CASES WE CAN NOT GIVE A FUCKING REASON OTHER THAN ALL THE OTHER FUCKING CANADIANS ARE FUCKING DOING FUCKING IT" style Canadian) are out, and Canada apparently sucks at soccer, if Germany does lose, who am I going to go for? The Netherlands, I suppose. Plus, they are doing so well it seems they should get far.
wtFF is wrong with me I come here to make a simple post and wind up with a tFFl'dFFr woFFt.
p.p.p.p.p.s., Around where I live those "douchesbags with car flags" myself included are often criticized for being unpatriotic. I for one would be the first to buy Canadian car flags should we reach FIFA, but I think it would be itneresting if Canada did just once qualify for the world cup such that it would be a Litmus-esque test to see if all these "assholes with flags on their cars" are really unpatriotic, or just go for an apporpirate non-Canadian country, depending on (usually) their ancestry.
Tomorrow I will hopefully post a picture of myself wearing a Germany jersey and Germany hat with two German flags on my car (well, my dads car, which is alas not German).
Goodbye, and GO GERMANY 5-0 JULY 3RD AUF WIEDERSEHEN ARGENTINA -

I know im a bit late chirping in here. I'm not going to get into the England Germany game in detail because its been covered. England were awful, germany were lethal on the break and deserved the win.
But Seth Blatter is an idiot. WHY oh why dont they use a goal line system. The hawk eye system is tried and tested in Cricket and Tennis and works perfectly. The Hawk Eye Football system they have been trying to sell to Fifa works and tells the referee within a second if the ball crossed the line.... I seriously can't see whats stopping them using this.
Then again it took them 3 years to introduce the electronic boards for substitutions instead of the manual flip ones (they had to make sure they worked in lower leagues first... WTF?) -

because sepp blatter is a narrow-minded, greedy and obsessed, grumpy old man, who fears technical innovations that COULD interfere with his ridiculously enormous power. -

Blah. I tried watching the Cup again, and I'm already done....If this is the world's sport, then I would like there to be more sport and less cheating and crying like little bitches. If these professional athletes can't have enough honour and pride in their team and their country to play fairly, then get them off the fucking field. There's millions of others that would gladly go in their place.
Kevin, are you high? -

I hate football yet for some reason all of a sudden I am starting to like it lol, what's wrong with me, help!!!
That's the effect the world cup causes in people. Look at this, you can see people celebarting Argentina's victory against Mexico. That's the city of Cordoba, where I live. -

If you are referring to what I think you are, then fuck, I knew someone would say so.Nice try, but, no. The Nazis were around for under 1% of the history of the Germanic lands.Your pro-germany behaviour frightens me a bit.
Being a white conservative of German descent =/= being a Nazi.
No.Blah. I tried watching the Cup again, and I'm already done.
Kevin, are you high?
And I bet if (when, pretty much) Germany loses on the Third I will agree with you. If you don't like the sport AND your favorite team/s are out, then it's fucking boring.
I bought a German football hat today. -

You really don't understand, though I'm not surprised. I like sport. I love the idea of sport. Cheating is the opposite of sport. Cheating means that your win is an empty win, but you, Kevin, will only ever see the glory in winning and nothing else.No.

There's just a lot of diving and stuff like that in soccer. You can accept it or not, but it won't change too soon. -

If you went out in a field with a few of your friends and a ball right now, I bet you wouldn't be "diving and stuff" as often as the pros do.There's just a lot of diving and stuff like that in soccer. You can accept it or not, but it won't change too soon.
But I still maintain that I think Kevin is a completely fictional character.
