The 2008 Euro Cup Thread

[Easy Mac]

Showing the MLS followed by Euro 2008 is a bit like having sex with a slightly overweight girl who's a tomcat in the sack, the going to a supermodel who has a measured approach and generally seems a little bored by the whole thing.

Also, in between the two you have to go watch a musical involving waltzing gay ballons.

[DaddyTorgo]

see now THAT should be a red-card!!!

last man back and he took down Torres there clearly

hahah fucking priceless

[DaddyTorgo]

idk - I think as you can see there on that last play (min 53), ramos tracks back very well

[DaddyTorgo]

card for torsten please

[daedalus]

why is podolski playing left wing? i thought he was pretty solid up front in the world cup, especially partnering klose. does germany lack another winger to partner schweinsteiger?

for kicking the ball or iniesta?

Spain need to kill the game off quickly or they might end up regretting it.

[DaddyTorgo]

lol hmmm? did you quote the wrong thing?

for frings' smacking around of iniesta

[DaddyTorgo]

GORGEOUS CHALLENGE BY RAMOS

[DaddyTorgo]

heh - you ask me I think podolski nodded at silva first

[daedalus]

the germans tend to do that, don't they?

that's what i saw as well.

yeah, i quoted the wrong one.

[DaddyTorgo]

holy shit that was close ramos!!!

damnit...shoulda let torres take it

[DaddyTorgo]

heyyy...iniesta took a shot!

[daedalus]

at least there is that.

should have taken it on first touch, though.

[DaddyTorgo]

how's that a free kick? jansen runs into ramos' back? and the ball was still there...no obstruction

[daedalus]

isn't that where the germans scored from with half their free kicks?

[Easy Mac]

Casillas' testicles are magnificent

[daedalus]

i'm obviously biased but i think aragones took out the wrong maestro. i think cesc is more dangerous. although i can understand the thinking with xavi being more conservative with his passes, thus less prone to giving the balll away.

i just think he is going to go too defensive and will regret it with the germans making their usuall miracle play.

[DaddyTorgo]

this ref is frigging retarded...how is that a card? bullshit

[Easy Mac]

Am I the only one who feels like I'm listening to a FIFA game with these two doing the commenting.

[daedalus]

why the fuck did he card torres? that play (jumping for headers and clashing heads) has happened at least 3-4 other times this game. in fact, that was how ballack got his cut.

[terpkristin]

This ref is one of the worst I've ever seen. What a travesty to have him officiating a final match of this caliber.

a FIFA game?

[DaddyTorgo]

man torres was almost clean through there


but yes...this ref is bogus. I just hope his shit calls don't decide the game

[Easy Mac]

Mertesacker not only looks like Ben Olsen, he plays a lot like him as well.

[DaddyTorgo]

makes me want to play fifa after this is over!

oh, he's an italian ref -- he is probably waiting for the call from one of the milan clubs to find out who is supposed to win.

[DaddyTorgo]

wtf - why are you taking torres off for guiza? he's their best finisher and they're not going to win 1-0...how is that a useful substitution

OH FUCK YOU WEATHER ALERT...FUCK YOU

[DaddyTorgo]

I swear to god if I miss a goal i'm going to call my local abc affiliate and tell them to go fuck themselves

[DaddyTorgo]

OHHHHH SENNA

[Easy Mac]

Boy, they should have put that one away there

[DaddyTorgo]

I gotta say if spain can't hold out here in regulation I have no faith in guiza or anyone else to get them a winner in extra time

[daedalus]

it doesn't make sense. güiza is a quality forward and finisher but, as far as i know, he does not have the pace of torres and torres has been tormenting the german backline ALL day . . . with his pace. gah.

heh.

[Easy Mac]

I can't remember the last time I've seen a team down 1-0 have such a hard time having any control of the ball this late in the game. Spain has had almost all possession for the past 10 minutes

[daedalus]

güiza's girlfriend and agent is a bit hot.

do not suggest googling if at work.

[DaddyTorgo]

wtg guiza - win the corner

[Easy Mac]

Fuck you andy gray, stop reading my posts on the FOFC

[DaddyTorgo]

wtg senna! way to win the FK

she's also quite a slut

[DaddyTorgo]

what's her name? maria menudo?

[Easy Mac]

Nuria Bermúdez

[DaddyTorgo]

nevermind I found it

[DaddyTorgo]

she does look rather slutty...lol

[Easy Mac]

seriously, even googling her is NSFW, seriously, just a simple google search... I'm not complaining, but I don't think I've ever had that happen

[DaddyTorgo]

I wont give my observation's on the game yet so as to avoid jinxing it...

[daedalus]

apparently, she likes her fun. shrug. if she was not married or she has the consent of her spouse, i do not see why that is a problem.

rightfully that foul goes against germany, they were mugging spanish defenders

I didn't say it was a negative
