stevevan Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Germany won the first game of the World Cup 4-2 over Costa Rica. Awesome game! Now to settle back and watch the fun! (I am SO happy I bought an HD television!) Quote
chatbug Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Yay! I drew Germany by random in a world cup pool I entered... luck me! Haha... Quote
stevevan Posted June 9, 2006 Author Posted June 9, 2006 Ecuador 2, Poland 0. England plays tomorrow. Any of our British family members planning on watching? Quote
stevevan Posted June 10, 2006 Author Posted June 10, 2006 (edited) Trinidad-Tobago tied Sweden? What happened Thomas? Edited June 10, 2006 by stevevan Quote
makaveli Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 Ennngerrrland 1-0 quite a poor second half and the ref... well.... he loved his whistle Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 What happened Thomas? Many more games left for us to show the world... Quote
makaveli Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 England Vs Sweeden soon i wonder where Sven's loyalties really lie Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I hope they don´t use this one to play their games on. Quote
makaveli Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I am watching this match Live in ASCII well not for much longer Quote
stevevan Posted June 13, 2006 Author Posted June 13, 2006 Man! The US game was downright embarassing! That looked more like the team we had in 1998. I hope they find something to help put some balls in the back of the net in the next three games. Quote
TCH-Tim Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I am watching this match Live in ASCII Cheaper than satellite I suppose. Quote
chatbug Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 (edited) I almost couldn't believe Australia won 3-1 against Japan! That was such a shocker! I watch the games "live" on Google... watching the scoreboard tick over. LOL! Edited June 14, 2006 by chatbug Quote
Head Guru Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 I am watching this match Live in ASCII well not for much longer What amazing color! Quote
makaveli Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 i had it on a real tv too, read soem idiot was converting it to ASCIi so had to have a look. Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 Yesterdays game must confirm what I wrote in post 7. Quote
stevevan Posted June 18, 2006 Author Posted June 18, 2006 Very true thomas...much better match from the Swedes. I was also more impressed with the US side today. However, as a referee myself, I was embarrassed at the kind of game that the idiot was calling. That was terrible! Quote
makaveli Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 England Vs Sweden... 1 min in and Michael Owen has a nasty stumble, hes out and replaced by crouch the giant i've noticed i have not seen any images of sven goran eriksson yet on the tellybox! (sitting on a little box waving his sweden flag (possibly)) Quote
Madmanmcp Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 For those who don't have time to watch, a little program from EVERYONES favorite software developer... h_tp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=df6a6e6e-21af-4786-ad1d-a38e8bfda82f&DisplayLang=en Quote
makaveli Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 And England one up thanks Cole and 2 recent good on target shots from Rooney and lampard Quote
makaveli Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 oohh... SWE 1 - 1 ENG you see, the other cinema (the one im not working for, same company) is showing the England Games in Hd on a Cinema Screen.. i thought "pah, what a trashy idea" but this game is pretty tense!!! Quote
stevevan Posted June 20, 2006 Author Posted June 20, 2006 2-2 tie. Interesting match...I think the keeper fell asleep on that last goal. Quote
TCH-Tim Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Man, I don't have cable so I'm stuck with soaps all day. Guess the World Cup is only a big deal to the networks on the weekends. Quote
makaveli Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 2-2 tie. Interesting match...I think the keeper fell asleep on that last goal. im happy, we get equador now, not the hosts, germany... still a win would of been nice Quote
stevevan Posted June 20, 2006 Author Posted June 20, 2006 Of course, the first goal is to make it out of the first round! Hopefully the US can rebound and get a victory against a very strong Ghana squad. Quote
TCH-Alex Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 With the blessings of Thomas, Germany secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over Sweden. Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 Ok, so Sweden is better in hockey. Thanks Alex. Quote
stevevan Posted June 25, 2006 Author Posted June 25, 2006 Yes they are Thomas! BTW...it seems my prediction about the US was correct. There was just something that was eerily reminiscent of the 1998 team...and the result was the same then, too. So I would think the favorites would be Germany, Netherlands, and Brazil. Quote
makaveli Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 England Play soon England v Equador should be a good one... and amazingly the evil people aint go tme in work Quote
stevevan Posted June 25, 2006 Author Posted June 25, 2006 So much for my predictions...Netherlands are out. Quote
stevevan Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 Did anyone see Ronaldo's goal from yesterday? That had to be one of the best moves I've seen yet! He is truly a great goal scorer! Germany & Argentina friday...this should be a great match. I hope the referee let's them play (within reason) and not become a distration to the game. I'm gonna have to set a VCR to record this one! Quote
stevevan Posted July 2, 2006 Author Posted July 2, 2006 Well, the semi-finals are set. Anyone wanna predict the winner? (My condolences to our British family members.) Quote
stevevan Posted July 9, 2006 Author Posted July 9, 2006 Well, congrat's to Italy for winning the World Cup 2006. Was anyone else as shocked as I was when Zindane did what he did? What a way for one of the greatest players in the world to end his career. Quote
makaveli Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 yeah well done italy... and that foul in question... (if it aint allowed just delete it ya wont need to inform me) but it was such a shock assault! Quote
marie b. Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 What was he thinking?! Either way, I'm thrilled. Quote
makaveli Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 it was "off the ball" so i was not expecting it! mind i liked it in the fact it added to the drama! i cant believe so soon after this incident i have seen a barrage of comedy GIF's based on the assault Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 Congrats Italy. (Makaveli, I removed the image file. That will be broadcasted enough on the tv anyway.) Quote
Blackcat Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 Congrats Italy. I have no voice left for winning parties!!! Quote
