The New Football Forum (?)

Abraham · 04-28-06, 04:41 AM

This summer Germany will host an extraordinary event, that happens only once every four years.
I'm not talking about the Olympics, but about the FIFA World Cup Football.
Passion, technique, beauty.
Starring such FIFA top ranking teams like: 1. Brazil (830 points), 2. Czech Republic (779), 3. Netherlands (774).
The General Topics Forum might be overwhelmed by bets, comments and discussions, so passionate and so fierce, that it will make the debates between Skybird and me last year, or the discussions between Mike "Red October" Hense and The Avon Lady look like a friendly get together of old friends over a good glass of wine...

My educated guess is that in the Final Holland will (be) beat(en) (by) Brazil.
Amoungst the other teams there will be a fierce competition for the third place. Likely candidates: Czech Republic, Italy, England, Argentina.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to start up a temporary Footbal Forum (or a definite Sports Forum - including chess matches!) to prevent undue irritation of those who think that football should be played with helmets and that the ball should be thrown instead of kicked...
