World Cup 2006

The World Cup farging rules. Any sport that incites riots before, during and after its most meaningless games gets the thumbs up from me. Plus waking up to drink at 4am in 2002 convinced me that the World Cup is the greatest thing ever.

Someone asked me the other day who I'm rooting for. I almost punched them in the kidney. The US may suck at teh soccer, but I'll be screaming for them just the same. farging unamerican bitches.

Getting up at 4 a.m. to go drinking, drunk by 6 a.m. singing along with a crowd of fools louder than you can think, and then rolling out into the rush hour crush of suits, was absofarginglutely one of the best bar experiences I've ever had.

Working with a bunch of frogs made World Cup '02 simply delicious. One of the Brits in the office actually found and hung a Senagalese flag on a french brand manager's office door, immediately after the match. When the prig came in to work, we had the security guys--who didn't give a damn about soccer, in true Uhmerikan spirit--holding up score cards. Then he got upstairs to his office. Ha!

farging frog.

i really, honestly tried to get into soccer, and i can't. but since i tried, i feel that gives me carte blanche to mock it.

You had carte blanche to knock it before you tried it. One doesn't have to take a fleshpop in the ass to think maybe he's not into anal sex.

But I wonder..been to a bar full of fans during world cup? I'll be surprised if you say yes.

And I don't mean a bar in Hagerstown or some other farmer's shteinhole.

I was in a bar in Orlando during the World Cup. Surreal would be the word I would use.

Mickey can kick some serious tail when he's drunk.

This is one of the most excited I have ever been for a World Cup, I am not sure why but I just am. I am hoping that I will be able to get drunk for some of the games, provided it doesn't conflict with my schedule.

I didn't even know the World Cup was this year. I had no idea until today when I heard Gargano and Martorano talking soccer.

Oh, the horror.

I'll watch the US games though.

Is anyone else going to be watching? I'm not a huge soccer fan, but for some reason I really get into it when it rolls around.

Here's a 'secret' video of the Italian team practicing the basics.

I will be watching.

i follow it but could never sit down and actually watch a game

phattymatty · June 06, 2006, 02:45:57 PM

i think it's more of a national pride thing than anything, but i think the games are pretty fun to watch. i can't sit down and watch an MLS game, but these guys on the international teams are sick.
