Only if you get 'em imported in cans, I'm sure.




Don't want to make the Algeria mistake again, eh?

No. They are proper Christians born of the Yugoslavian Civil War. Also, they aren't animals like the Serbs. So, another plus.

I bet after a few of those goals you were like: What have I done?

It's bad that they're Muslims, it's worse that like 17 of them are from France.

It was a white kid with a black Wii mote. Plus, trailer parks negate laws.

It's going to be a looooooooooooooooooooong 3 days.

Also never in a million years did I think I would be so emotionally invested in fricking Soccer.

Neither have I -- but we've never really had that much of a chance, have we? At least this year, we control our own destiny and we can play our last game with some fervor.

I listen to an English (England) broadcast here and they always have very positive things to say about our team.

#1 in fans traveling (aside from Brazil).

And apparently it's commonly perceived by the rest of the world that we have the most stamina out of any team in the World Cup.

.........Man, I can't get enough.

It's how it gets you. Get some emotional investment and ride the wave of the feels. Next thing you know you're watching EPL games instead of Gameday.

I've been even watching the Mexican league, which is pretty damn exciting. They play really fast ball, sloppy, but really fast. Tons of counterattacks.

What's that???


Also I've actually been to a European Soccer match.

When the Million Dollar Band went to Italy in 2012 we watched a soccer match in Florence. It was ACF Fiorentina vs some other team.



It was pouring raining, like 40 degrees (Spring is somewhat cold in Tuscany) and the game ended in a 0-0 tie. Still got a cool shirt of the team though.
