It's already 'American football' and 'football'. No need to change anything except just get rid of 'soccer', it tickles my snob gene every time I hear it-

Does anyone remember the name of that sport where Frenchmen jump around on rooftops that's in every action movie ever made after 2000

Well, it is called football. Soccer is what you lot made up because you already had a sport with that name, and yes it is or can be pretty boring to watch but the world cup is different because there is a whole secondary drama going on. The best sport in the world is whatever people think it is, this is the biggest show on earth and interesting mainly for that reason. If you want the best football that's probably the English or Italian league.

If you ever learn to call it 'Football' it will be because you have arrived as a major nation.

Maybe SA decided to save a buck or two. Security for the American team apparently costs an arm and a leg.

yEAh that's not really what I meant. Used to being disappointed in their expectations fits better.

England are used to not qualifying remember.

Everyone does the best that they can and hopes for luck to give them the rest, deserve deshmerve.

I was under the impression that being moved, and even moved to tears, was a testament to the quality of the music. I don't think it's meant to simply depress you. What would be the point of making music like that.

You made me click around after some good ol' funky music. I'm just going to post 5 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js5bL48rDCY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UYmHQDPr8M...feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBuaIQn1fpg

It's pretty girlish, and I'm a little embarrassed, but Sometimes It Snows In April, prince. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbZCpOr8hW8

My preference would be a skill based system where the augs provided the extraordinary. They should focus on things that are cool and fun to do. Superhuman strength for 10 seconds might be enough to flip over a 'walker' security bot with your bare hands, that kind of thing.

If refs were allowed to reverse a decision we would never hear the end of the appeals. It does kinda suck when bad refereeing decides a match though.

lol

They'll never get me. NEVAR !

Well if the oil spill manages to kill off species which only live in that area, they are gone for good. It would be like the meteor which wiped out the dinosaurs, hermit crab style. Fishing diminishes populations, it doesn't eliminate them as far as I know.

Ok maybe not so much defectors as Ill Sung jugend.

From Italy you mean.

It was unintentional, but intentional in the sense that he didn't have the arm "attached" to his body. If his arm had been attached to his body it would've been completely legal. That makes no sense. He reached hs hand up near where the ball was, that can't be unintentional, except in the brain fart kind of way.

Nice going NZ

I've just been playing Half life two episode 1 and 2. In those games you have an unkillable companion with unlimited ammo, basically playing the game for you. You wind up routinely lobbing grenades at her legs to deal with the zombies attackng her. This is not a good idea.

Why did he do it though. Surely it helped nothing. Maybe he wanted to be in the papers as the match-loser ?

Man that was sheer terror. Our defence collapsed in long periods, fortunately Cameron wasn't much better.

I was wondering how many were going to defect.

So tomorrow is doomsday, or not. Denmark v Cameroun. Win or leave. I hope coach Olsen will be able to come up with something brilliant because we don't have anyone extraordinary on the team. Or at least they have been hiding their extraordinarity extraordinarily well.
