A silly observation

Posted on June 27, 2006 at 7:59 pm in

So, when Francesco Totti stepped up to take that (alleged and dubiously won) penalty, the camera zoomed in to his eyes to show the level of concentration there as he prepared to take the shot.

It’s not fair, why do these boys have naturally long, curled lashes, and I have to put up with fucking mascara and lash curlers?!

Portugal-Holland fun stuff, Azzurri not fun stuff

What the fuck was going through the minds of Luiz Felipe Scolari and Marco van Basten? Granted Portugal are through, but Scolari is now without two players for their quarterfinal clash against England. Had the Netherlands gotten through, van Basten would be without two integral players as well. Those two weren’t even trying to calm their players down. Dude.

I say, how is Scolari going to beat England like this?!

Nasib van Basten kept van Nistelrooy out – good boy sitting on the bench = no trouble for him to get involved with. That was an awesome game though, I kept screaming, “Riot!! Riot!!” at every moment. Hee. I like the Netherlands and their Oranje Army, but with international teams I stick to the Azzurri and casually watch the rest.

Currently: Azzurri vs Australia. Marco Materazzi just got sent off, leaving my Azzurri down to ten men. OMG WHAT IS WITH THE AZZURRI’S STREAK OF BAD LUCK?! I CRY!!!

… AND THEN THEY TAKE LUCA TONI OFF?! GODDAMMIT LIPPI, KEEP ATTACKING, NOT GO DEFENSIVE!!

[Edit] PENALTY!! TOTTI!! AZZURRIIIIII!!! :D

Major respect to Guus Hiddink though. He is one of the best coaches in the game, ever.

Life isn’t fair, be glad for friends

“Jean, I grew up with you. I will do my best to help you.”

Everyone will agree that I am a narcissistic, overzealous, self-righteous, egomaniac Bitch with a capital, bold B. Whatever it was I did in a past life or something, I am glad for the friends I have.

My fandoms are neglected thanks to the World Cup

Doctor: That thing is playing on very basic fears!! Darkness, childhood, nightmares, all that stuff!!
Danny: But that’s how the devil works!!
Doctor: OR a good psychologist!!

I love the Doctor. HEE!! :D

Azzurri to be halted?

While staring at the huge printout of the World Cup groups and subsequent round of 16, quarter finals, semis and finals, I realised: If the Azzurri place second in their group, they meet the winners of Group F. And who is in group F? BRASIL.

HABIS MY AZZURRI. :(

T-minus 1 day

OMG. One more day to the 2006 World Cup. I cannot wait.

  • David Beckham has yet to produce on the world stage for England. Omgplskicksomeoneagainkthxbai.
  • Nakata ought to shut his whiny, egotistical ass.
  • South Korea must think Dutch coaches are good for them, but seriously, Dick Advocaat?
  • Australia are Turkey #2, the cheating bastards. Nobody downs My Darling and three teammates in a fucking friendly.
  • Darling Azzurri, all we ask for is a miracle.
  • Brasil are going to be much fun to watch.
  • Can Germany live up to the masses’ expectations?
  • #2 ranking Czech Republic have a lot to live up to.
  • Croatia, I await debating exchanging nasty smses with dear old Frank.
  • The Netherlands’ progress and Marco van Basten’s target for Euro 08. And Ruud. Shutup. Love knows no bounds.
  • For the last time, Rooney’s inclusion/exclusion is not a life or death situation for England.

“Eh, what’s more important, your cousin Francesco’s wedding or World Cup?”
“World Cup lah. What kind of stupid question is that?”

What amazes me is that said Italian cousin chose this point in time to get married. What is he, stupid or cheap? Most of his guestlist will be drunk or rioting in Germany.
