The Hun looked very good out there. They were actually one of the more entertaining teams at the last World Cup too. I relished every second of that rape. There's nothing better as an NZer than seeing Australia destroyed in a sporting event.

Yeah! Germany is an excellent team, and very young too apparently. A bright future ahead for their national squad I think!

NZs first game is tomorrow and I am so excited. 11:30pm our time, against Slovakia.

I'd say the way Germany played, they ought to be one of the favourites right now. Awesomely played.

I watched that game earlier today. Australia seemed a little lazy in the field (no offence to the Aussies out there). Go Germany!!

Hey Guido! Enjoy that new ball of yours. Just don't play it anywhere near your JP collection!!

LOL Guido!

Watching highlights of the Australia vs Germany, what a smashing. Australia were picked apart. Tim Cahill is a mega dick too, got a red card, serves him right for tackling like a dick.

[guidogodoy] Sunday, June 13, 2010 7:28:20 PM 
Ok, couldn't help it...I bought the freakin' ball.
[Becks] Sunday, June 13, 2010 12:09:43 PM 
Congrats to Slovenia, Strat! Ghana ended up beating Serbia I see, stink! Germany currently leading Australia 2-0, woohoo! LOL!

YES!!! First world cup victory since 1990, first at all as an independant nation... The streets have been deserted today, thats for sure.

Tho I hope that we will do better in next matches, since our boys havent shown everything they could today.

Serbia is doing good too against Ghana... I hope they score soon!
[joedraper] Sunday, June 13, 2010 6:13:40 AM 
Well! The Slovenians are having the upper hand today!
I'm sposed to be rooting for all African countries so the Algerians are looking pretty sad right now.. sniff sniff..
[Becks] Saturday, June 12, 2010 3:19:47 PM 
Oh man Guido, I know the sort of time slowing down scenario that you are talking about! Lucky!
LOL Joe, the ABs kicked Irish butt last night, I think SA are playing/have played France this weekend. The SA rugby team is hard core lol. A lot of people from other countries are supporting the All Whites (just to clarify - that refers to their uniform LOL) cos we're a major underdog, lol.

PMSL! OOH I was actually gripping the seat while I was reading that and picturing the scene in my mind.
Don't you love it when things like that miraculously happen? The perfect miss lol.

HAAAA!!!! I remember the moment when my LIFE flashed before my eyes as a teen. During another WC, I am doing exactly what I have always done during most matches..namely, booting the ball off of walls, etc in the house. We had just come back from Puerto Rico where my Mom talked Pop into buying her these massive (expensive as hell) Lladró porcelain figures of Don Quijote and Sancho Panza. Had them set way up high on a shelf.

Well, I launch the ball full boot that direction and as soon as it leaves my foot, time slows to a crawl as I could see the curve coming. Right AT those figures. Yeah, I had friends over and we had a bit of beer. Man, I seriously shit three bricks in about 1/2 a second seeing the trajetory. Miracles of miracles, the ball hits BETWEEN both of these $1000+ statues, hits the wall and bounces right back. I nearly passed out.

Needless to say, there was no more ball-playing in the house after that little episode.

Dont underestimate Algeria either - they had to qualify from the African zone, which is a bit harder than qualifying from Europe. Id say that the tomorrow game will be anything but easy. Looking forward to Serbia - Ghana too (its probably not a great feat of thinking to find out who I will be rooting for).

I guess Im pleased with the draw between USA and England, tho I honestly hoped that USA would win... But they were great anyway specialy the keeper.

LOl.. Yesterday the kids left a ball in the living room.. so Craig kicked it to get it out the way and it smashed right into one of his tubes.. He just looked at me and I said "That's why we don't kick balls in the house." I got the evil eye for stating the obvious.. he broke a rare tube on an amp he is trying to sell so now he has to source a tube before he can advertise it hahahahaha... Sorry my evil side is coming out.

Speaking of being over excited, I ALMOST took out one of my own new windows with an errant shot with the ol' ball last night. Booting it around the house it hits the couch and right at the window.

Thank goodness for solid double-pane windows.

I wonder who my SA friends who live in NZ will be rooting for?? My brother in law switched rugby sides so fast it was scary lol. His team here wore black (the sharks) so he just decided that he had the same All Blacks colours so that's who he backs now lol.

They are super quick.
Can't wait for NZs first game against Slovakia. I'll probably get over excited LOL!
