World Cup discussion thread

How about Rooney, is he a pussy? He is to me. Great players keep there cool not take temper tandrums like a kid.

 

dunno about that we got a pretty big portugese community here in toronto also probably now not as big as they deported some of them earlier this year dunno why, but there is still a huge portugese community here were they like to party where usually the italians go party. Funny thing is last time there was a fight and they were fighting each other which was pretty stupid portugese fighting portugese anyhow brazil, portugal semi will be cool to watch.

 

NY, I actually looked it up. You are right. Toronto has the biggest in N.A. Newark, NJ biggest in the US.

Brazil looks bad. 1-0 France and they are dominating the pace of the game. Zidane looks great.

 

Prove it. Post the pictures.

 

wow good game so far. The French are looking strong.

 

Prove what?

 

What a great game....boy, I'm glad Brazil is gone. I agree, Zidane looks really good....he might just retire on top.....but for Germany's sake, I hope not.

 

I'm asking you to prove that there was this huggge party. Post the pics,

 

No problem. I took a few pictures for myself anyway so I'll post them later when I get a chance because I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if you didn't believe me :roll:

 

I think it's pretty apparent this will be Germany's year.

Also, how come so many people hate France?

 

Yeah, German does look like the team to beat. I have no idea why people hate France. They played great today. I think they were called a pussy team earlier so that puts the total at 3 pussy teams left out of 4.

 

For Bob Marley

Welcome to the picture tour of the Ironbound section of Newark, NJ and the celebration of Portugal over England in the 2006 World Cup.


A view from my stoop looking out to the main street(Ferry St.)


Poor unsuspecting Brazilians thinking they will be also celebrating a win later in the day.


What happens in Newark stays in Newark


A view of the Castle Iberia


Poor jerks that can't get into a concert of Portuguese folk bands




Inside the piazza were the concert was







It became too crowded and the cops were acting up so I went back home after this.

 

I dunno about france but how come so may people hate italy?

 

Probably jealousy.

 

They have a notorious reputation of diving and when they lose, blame everyone but themselves. I know all teams do this as well, but they take it to the extreme....no pun intended..lol.

 

Wow, whats with that shirt that one Brazilian was wearing? Total ***

 

The reason so many people hate France is because it is their fault that the world is like this.

 

Great Machine you gotta check this picture out. Its of 1982 when italy won the world cup this is a pic taken in Toronto on St.Clair Ave West.



Imagine if italy wins it this year that streat will be chaos

here's another image



*i think toronto has the largest italian population outside of italy*

Here is a Portugal celebration that was in 2004 during the eurocup

 

People hate France because they can't win at anything important.

People hate Italy because they switch sides when they start losing.

 

I think alot of people dislike Italy because they feel soccer IS Italian and they shold be winning every year. I generally have had some bad experiences with Italians. A cocky attitude and a general feeling that their shit don't stink. That is not to say all Italians are like this, but the ones in my city have seemed to be.

Nice pics GM, it's pretty cool to see the view from a persons stoop. It really gives a feeling of where our fellow gamers are from.
