The true sport of the world and no one's bothered bringing it up  I'm not a big footie fan and i do hope we have a few football fanatics in tha house to enlighten us what to expect in Germany. Will Brazil get it again? I am so amazed by this sport, it's the only ballgame that deserves to have a "World Cup". |

Will Brazil get it again? With the R's in this team ( Ronaldhino, Ronaldo,Robihno, Roberto [ Carlos  ] ) I think they will win it again  the Dutch , Argentina, Spain, Portugal, homeboys Germany and the Englishmen ( Overhyped daw na mag Champ ) are strong teams. But as they say " the ball is bilog " remember the first game of last '02 WC, France and Senegal ? and Greece winning Euro last year upsets are sweet pay per view raw live games, just dont know were it wud be broadcast  |

They're showing it in Solar Sports, delayed by a day or two, I think. The England vs. Paraguay game was televised last night. I think the pay per view for solar would be 2,800 php. Haven't been watching the game... Because I just KNOW I'll be buying a jersey of my fave teams. Argh argh. Go Portugal! I'm for the underdogs! |

i think the chances of winning this world cup by the brazilians is huge. their team is so strong. But this is football , anything can happen here.

brasil parin ako!!!!!!! 4-0 vs. australia! woohoo! pao i think u watched the wrong game... its was only 2-0. goal scored by Adriano and Fred... Im a brazil fan myself pero im disappointed w/ their performance... unlike argentina na super consistent... i was hoping for a south america team vs a euro team in the finals... gusto ko sana brazil vs england but both teams aret showing signs of domination so far... england's michael owen is injured pa... patay. for the meantime ill go w/ argentina and brazil... i want germany to lose... hehehe so much for their home court advantage hehehe |

futbol, to quote joes is the only sport around where every team plays on a level playing field (no pun intended). its spectacular to see teams from africa ( a couple of them this world cup 06) slugging it out and giving teams from developed country a run for their money. i even read one article that european league teams are setting up academies in africa where they train local players to play in their respective Euro leagues. south africa is scheduled to host the world cup 2010. so watch out for the africans. pinoys given the proper training and exposure should make good futbolistas! i will love to see a south american team vs a euro team in the final (brazil vs. england?  ) |

This is not only about the game but I noticed some of the poster here dislike the Americans? Is this jealousy how the American is successful country? Sorry but I'm not a American born but this country provide, give me better life and opportunity and NO OTHER COUNTRY CAN DO BETTER. I would say is my second country and willing to protect anytime. Some people they hates America but in there heart are trying hard to migrate and have better life. Dont get me wrong also lots of people here hates America but they still around. If they hate America so much they should get out and go back to the country they love the most.
Did your grand parent told you that without the Americans soldier sacrifice (twice) probably your not around?
I'm sorry but soccer is not that famous here because no MONEY and boring game! If they will break the game in 4 quarters it may create sponsors. Probably some kids moving to that direction if the money is great.
Remember UCI is also part of Tour de france and who was the best all time?
I hope I would not offend anyone as you offend other member.
Just remember think before you post and may offend someone.
Lets ride.
Sorry for the OT folks..

nyahahhaha.... dont get me wrong jr, im just posting the details. hehe. as for me, i dont really hate America. But in some sports, i'm not wooing for them, and in some i do. football is not really boring, if you're into the game. so as to billards, golf, chess, cricket, baseball, basketball, cycling, athletics, swimming, triathlon, tennis, badminton, table tennis, patintero, sungka, jackstone, etc. You find it interesting to watch when you're really into the sport. Football has more crowds than the olympics, and yet i find it boring... but that depends on who's playing. hehe |
