World Cup 2006 Thread I haven't seen anyone posting anything about the 2006 World Cup, and since it is already underway I figure I'll post a little something about it. There are severaly new teams making an appearance and of course the usual European and South American powerhouses are there. Today I am very very upset over the USA's lackluster play against the Czech Republic, they showed absolutely no emotion on the field other than being scared. I was rooting for them, but being in the toughest group in the tournament severely limits their chance of advancing... But I will continue to show my support when they play Italy, it is a must win situation. The other team I am rooting for is the Ukraine, being Ukrainian myself I am extremely proud of them. This is the first time they ever qualified for a World Cup since becoming a free nation after the collapse of the Soviet Union. They dominating qualifying play and are responsible for keeping Greece (EuroCup champions) and Turkey (2002 WC 3rd place) out of this World Cup. Your thoughts on this year's World Cup? Predictions? __________________ RIP Tonka Hitlerietta 08/03/04 - 01/25/05 |
