Unless you count Jerome Boateng's transfer to Man City last week all Germans are in the Bundesliga (i think)

yep, one of their players has got south korean parents and he has lived in japan his whole life. his mother identifies herself as north korean though and he obtained a north korean passport through chongryon, enabling him to play for north korea. there's another player playing in japan, and their captain plays for rostov in russia, though i'm not sure what their stories are.

Nooooo, Italy will now have to try and score, and Paraguay will be all like "Fuck you!" and Italy'll be all like "no, fuck you!", and Paraguay will all be like "NO, FUCK YOU!!"

*KABOOOOOM!!*

Except, y'know, in Italian and, um, Paraguian?

 

[nicksonic]

in predicting a draw i may have been overly generous towards the italians!

 

[chieftain]

The most interesting thing for me is Paraguays No18 being the spit of Jason the Hammer!

 

[chieftain]

I wonder who'd win if Hanson and McArthy had a drone off?

i'd take hansen every day, no contest.

admittedly it's a low barrier.

 

[weltweit]

Not a bad goal ...


Anyone else wonder how it is pissing down in SA... is it the rainy season?

 

[chieftain]

is it the rainy season?

It is for Mick & Alan

 

[nicksonic]

It is for Mick & Alan

hopefully mick will get washed away and no one will notice as his increased droning merges in with the vuvuzelas.
