  • A dose of pheromones for Terra Nullius

    Cannavaro



    Gattuso and friends

    I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

            And Trézéguet would have still shot his penalty shootout. And the pressure on him would have been the same.

            All the rest (about pressure on the Italian players) is purely theoretical.
            Since penalties are about 10% skill and 90% psychology I'd say getting your star and natural leader send of in the last phase of the game will always influence the series becouse it changes the spirit of the team and therefore the individual players.

                Nah, just aimed at the other 50% of the population, its like calling playboy lesbian.

                • And how many of that other 50% - not to mention that there's only a handfull around here - have even come close to clicking this thread, you think?
                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                      Bingo. I'd be surprised if a single member of the female gender has ever clicked on a "World Football Thread" since its inception.

                        • Super amusing read about Bill Simmons (ESPN's "The Sports Guy") picking an EPL team to root for. It's worth the read .

                          After the World Cup, Bill Simmons decided to pick an English Premier League team to root for. It was an exhaustive process.

                          • I don't recall seeing mention here of Bruce Arena getting hired by the NY Red Bulls. Didn't take long after US Soccer announced he wasn't going to be back.

                            • Well that was the big rumor. After all, MLS wants a successful team in NY. The Metrostars/Red Bulls have been horrid in their 11 year history... and Arena is the greatest coach in US Soccer history, not just in the national level, but in the college ranks (with UVa) and the MLS (the DC United Championships were with Arena as the manager).

                                Not that there's anything gay with that.
