Who is going to win the 2006 World Cup? (NWS)

Just because someone starts a thread (even the admin), it doesn't mean that they are responsible for every single person who posts in it. He probably had no idea that people would get so riled up.

Because he has an opinion that is not yours, he's annoying?
I noticed the "I don't care" option, which is #2 BTW. Seems like at least 18% should be people posting about how they don't care. You got off easy, IMO.

He's probably tired of seeing this topic bumped up to the front pages due to the spamming of (mainly) one person.

You have been doing nothing here, but constantly trying to provoke to start a fight.

Reminding people of the rules is provoking/starting a fight? I guess the mods here are real brawlers

Lighten up, Francis.

Doesn't take you guys long to go there.




And yes, I do realize the paradox of trying to stop a topic from always being on the front page, while posting in it bumps it just the same

This is Off Topic Jim, there are plenty of forums for video related threads.

Anyway back on topic, what a jip, shitty ref sending Rooney off. Trying not to be bias, I thought we were the much better team particularly with only 10 men. Fucked over once again by the ref.

Brazil are also out I see, did not get to see much of that game will have to try and catch the highlights.

Germany V France Final is on the cards.

OK ... where to start ?

I am complaining to both Baldrick and the mods via the "Report This Post" thread.

You're annoying with your "without the world cup, my life means nothing !" attitude. And besides, I do give a shit for sport ... just not soccer. What you gonna do about it ?

I haven't hijacked anything, anywhere .... this thread is about the world cup so I've talked about the world cup. Just because I haven't been overly complimentary does not mean that my opinion is any less valid that your's and your fellow fanatics'.

I haven't been trying to start a fight at all. I was lynched and abused because I'm not eating, breathing and sleeping the world cup, unlike some of you hool .... er ..... fanatics.

Err, no it's not. It's Polls, Craig, which puts in the video-related section of the site by my understanding. By all means move it to OT, though.

There's going to be some major fights in England tonight as people start leaving the pubs and clubs.
Everyone here (ENGLAND) is pissed off,including me.

I'm sorry for England and Brazil. But in the Brazilian case, the team deserved loosing the game - there was no interest at all in winning the game - and this was obvious.
There may be a lot os stars in the Brazilian team such as Ronaldinho Gaúcho, Ronaldinho, Robinho, Adriano... but those stars don't make any team AT ALL because they didn't catch the spirit on how to play as a team. Argentinians (OUR PERPETUAL RIVALS) may be LOL untill now...
Congratulations to France that played much, much better and specially to Zidane who showed all his art!

Alors, c'est ça, la France a gagné. Kikou, bonjour la France. Allez Portugal, Allez-y lol lol lol Allez Italy, Allez-y....

PS: Supreme2k YOU ARE very, very CHATO...

Zidane kicked their butt,YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

-Hey man, do you have anything against Brazil? :P

-What did you expect? The ref is from Argentina...

I agree, but I feel that I initially posted indifference to the sport, which is a valid (and popular) poll option. Indifference is of course different to dislike or hate and (should be) far less inflammatory.

No dramas, but if I was intending to deliberately incite violence I'd have been far less complimentary

It just got my goat that some rules that are fairly liberally enforced everywhere else were not initially enforced here - it's a consistency/precedent thing I had issues with. However I'm happy now that there's NWS in the title and the thread is in OT. The good people can have their "religion" ( I thought we said "No religion" in OT ? ) and post to their heart's content without bothering anyone else. And the rest of us can focus on the primary intent - video

OK it was in the polls section, my mistake. But polls still come under the "other" category, not "video" category. And check the polls forum, how many of them are actually video related.

Damn, watching it on tv and hearing the crowd made me wish I was there in person. Lucky you. Maybe next World Cup.

So!!! after all this, we know who runs VideoHelp.com, Jimboh & SuperSupreme, boy are we in trouble. I can't beleve that the mod listened to these 2 twits, and have moved this thread to OT, when it IS the topic until the world cup ends. Thanks BJ_M

-I agree do with you... lol lol; SuperSupreme is VERY, VERY CHATO
-Thanks BJ_M, rrrrreally!

SO MUCH TO COMMENT!!!

My damned internet connection died friday afternoon and the brighthouse technician couldn't make it until today.

Ok, first about England vs. Portugal:

How does it feel to have a referee biased against your team uh?, I'm not saying that we lose the game because of the referee (like Australia-Italy), but he was indeed in favor of the lads.
He dismissed Rooney from the field, it is a matter of further discussion, but please!, he DID took a firm step on the other player's balls.... I saw the replay a hundred times... that wasn't very nice.
Overall, England was a better team, but as usual, lady luck didn't smile upon them this year. Now you feel like I do, to play an awesome match and lose by a single slip. (GOD DAMN YOU BECKHAM!!!)

Regarding Brazil: As a South american, I feel like Brazil is representing me too, but God knows I wanted them to lose this game. I think that that bunch of people wearing the yellow/green uniform weren't representing anybody else but themselves.
I know many people from Brazil and they LOVE footbal, they LOVE their country, and when those two elements are combined, a great passion is unleashed and hopes are sky high!...
But the national team this time... they played without passion, without life...
Rocky fans will understand me, they didn't were hungry, they didn't have the eye of the tiger. They thought they were the shit, they played like they were facing schoolgirls instead worthy adversaries, and they lost miserably.
The best players in the world made the worst team EVER.
Ronaldo didn't even take care of him phisically, he is FAT period!. If he knew that the world cup was coming, please train and lose some weight for God's sake!.

And the worst thing I have ever seen this world cup by far:

The referees.

My take: Germany is going to win.

And Zidane did sweat his shirt, he got his deserved price. Kudos to him.

My simpathy to the people of Brazil, it will be in four years. To the team of Brazil: WELL DESERVED!!!
I hope they will never be in the national team again, as they don't deserve it. At least I know that the media in your country will scald them to death.

My 2c.

Shall we continue only on Topic number 2?

Brilliant question from the BBC newsreader to their sports correspondent:

"Where do the england team go from here?"

Erm, home ?

I'd call that having your cake and eating it !
