Mate, nothing wrong with adopting a team. Though I thought you'd be cheering for Spain...you've got Spanish blood, right?

Finals, here we come - and for the first time too! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Due to dodgy Fox Sports camera work, I completely missed Maniche's goal.

Luckily, they showed about 10 replays, so I was happy.

It has to be the goal of the tournament.

It's not *always* bad to stick with the old guard, but the coach messed it up. Did Kluivert get off the bench at all in the tournament? Why not at least bring someone of his talent and experience off the bench when you're down and needing to score?

The D missed their coverage on the first goal (Ronaldo's header off the corner). Might have been keeper's ball. Not much anyone could do about Figo's screamer off the post (it was Figo, right? I was flipping channels like a doofus). He played like a captain and go-to guy.
Nope, Kluivert is a closed book, at least under this coach he is. Let's face it, v.Nistelrooy scores more than 20 goals in the British premiership, Makaay scores more than 20 in the German bundesliga, Kluivert has been a benchplayer most of the season with Barcelona. Who would you choose ?

But then I suppose I have more Chinese blood than Spanish because of my family name. But for the true mix I am not sure. [img]smile.gif[/img]

johnny, damn. hehehe

On a lighter note, that's what the coach should have done. Kluivert's a wild card... hahaha. It was worth a try if you guys are down anyway. nah am just biased.

I have never been to Amsterdam but I sure love it... Whatever the end result as long as I visit the damn place... I am frustrated I don't have enough resources. Blah school will distract me. [img]smile.gif[/img]

LOL! It's a dumb question. It's like I have watched Notting Hill and I want to walk around the frickin' place... and there's nothing special. Anywhere but here type of feeling I suppose. I just want to travel. And the Netherlands really have striked me silly. Wonder why. Cows? Hahahaha of course not.

Am sad we lost... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well, all you need is money for a planeticket, you could always crash at my place. Saves money, no ? I don't live in Amsterdam, but it's only a 20 minute drive by car or train from here.

Aww that's a sweet offer I won't refuse. Hehehe but I doubt if that'll be anytime soon. You might even be a grandaddy already when that time comes... Ironworks might be Goldworks already... and Ziroc Jr might be handling the place already... whoa. :0

Oops hijacking. Well good luck to Greece! Am off to bed we have this thing to do for school in the after noon and it's 340 am here.

Oh and I am with Greece with this one... I said Czechs right? Ahh... whoever wins I want them to beat Portugal.
