It's scary how many people have the same ikea furniture   I have a poang too for listening and an expedit to store my cd's (ikea also has cd racks that fit the expedit perfectly), my crappy stereo and my headphones/amp/dac

What Contador did was not great sportmanship, but it's allowed so I won't complain about that.   However, after the race he declared that he didn't notice Schleck's mechanical problems, I find that hard to believe. If you're going to be so inconsiderate to take advantage of your opponents...

I had an emergency removal of my appendix 8 years ago. If all goes well you'll already feel a lot better in a couple of days. And just like you reminded us that even though we may have a bad day, yours is probably worse, there are a lot of people in your hospital right now who wished they only...

btw, has someone already mentioned that the poll was correct?   go headfi!, we're the new paul the octopus

Quote:   I agree that every offense worthy of a yellow card should be punished by one. However, as a referee, if you have to give so many yellow cards, you've lost control of the match. Both Spain and Holland got away with some fouls (de jong e.g.) and therefore the rough play continued...

Congratulations to Spain, good game, they are deserved winners.   It was a rough game (especially by Holland, but not only by Holland) the kick by De Jong was horrible. I think the Ref made a mess of it, he should have halted the rough play ( sending de jong off might have done the trick)...

Alltough a holland - Germany game would be great. I'd like to see Spain progress to the final.   That way either Holland or Spain will take the cup, two teams that (IMO) deserve to win the world cup at least once.

Quote: lol, altough he plays with the tough German mentality, it's still VAN Bommel   The Netherlands have not displayed great football this match, they haven't displayed it during the entire tournament. I Couldn't care less, 'we' are in the finals! Go Holland!   Looking forward...

Hectic semi's   A (somewhat lucky) but historic win of the Netherlands over Brazil. After two eliminations (1994, 1998) by Brazil, the dutch finally win and displayed some mental strength which seemed to be lacking in previous tournaments. A crazy match between Ghana and Uruguay. With...

Quote: Do you have to keep reminding us?   Holland only has depth and brilliant players in the attacking line. The defensive line is sturdy but not brilliant and is lacking depth. Brazil are favourites but I'm looking forward to the game.  

No Football today! I don't even remember what I did between 16.00 and 23.30 before the WC   I'm really looking forward to Netherlands - Brasil and Argentina - Germany. Altough I would like to see the European sides to go to the semi's but I think the South Americans have the better cards.

Quote: Me and my friends always predict every game (1/8, quarter and semi) finalists during an EC or WC. I don't know the english word for this.   In any case, I always predict Germany to be the winner just because it pisses a lot of people of when you're supporting them. So Actually...

The US team may not have the best individuals but they are entertaining to watch. They didn't complain when the got on the wrong end of some decisions and kept going untill the last whistle. I'm glad they went through to the next round. Now they have a bit of luck that they won't face any of the...

I do believe that elbows should be punished. In that way, players will try to avoid planting their elbow in their opponents face when jumping. Especially since it's so easy to make it look unintentionally. I do however believe that if they are are punished, they should all be punished. It's now...
