Hi, Bob.
Yes, these two extremes I suppose are a good definition of my country, and
a good explanation of why we are as we are in this moment (destroyed).
The cause of our doom is our damned "viveza criolla", something a bit
untraslatable, something like "argentine evil-smart-mind", looking always
for a shortcut, a leeway, an advantage.

Both articles are very good, but the Observer's one is absolutely great and
super accurate (except for the 5 o clock tea).
If you list member are not from here and want to understand us, read it.

Hi Albano,
over here we admire the 2nd goal tremendously. Every time the 'hamd of
God' goal is shown, so is the sublime goal (and vice versa). We find it
difficult to see how 2 extremes could co-exist in one man, and be revealed
in the same match. One of the joys of English football, though, is that
Owen's goal against Argentina in France was almost as good as
Maradona's against us!
For people who don't understand the nature of the England-Argentina
fixture, here are some interesting links discussing its history.

Re: OT World Cup Offer

2002-06-02 Thread Lasse Karlsson

I simply can't stay away from this OT thread.

As I write this the England and Swedish teams shake hands before their
game starts. This is the first big moment in the World Cup for these
two countries. Very quiet and peaceful outside this beautiful sunny
day.
England has not beaten Sweden in 30 years.

The odd part is that the England team is managed by the Swede Svennis
Eriksson, now trying to beat his own country and fellow fotballers.

More than a thousand years ago the English fell victims to the Viking
conquest. Let's see what they can do today.

(Boy, is this a party for an ex-fotballer.)

By the way, only twice did I shoot a football game.
A lot of waiting for sudden actions that lead to nothing... Lot's of
frames wasted, unless someone else pays for the film and
developement...

I had thought the name football was applied originally to seperate the games between 
those,
like hockey, that were traditionally played on horse back. Soccer(football) rules 
originally
inluded handling of the ball, but not running with it. Later this rule was removed and 
a 
specialised player put in the goal who could handle the ball.

Many football codes were shunned in the 1850-80s because it pulled people away from 
more
military style sports such as archery etc.

I imagine the game today bears little resemblance to its origin.

Australia alas, shall not be there again. Football(Soccer) has not had as big an impact
here in as in other countries.

Such is life.

Re: OT World Cup Offer

2002-05-30 Thread Anthony Farr

If only that were true :/

Perhaps the other regions get 4 - 6 teams into the finals, but poor Oceana
not only got only one qualifier, but that side ~then~ had to play off
against South America's highest non-qualifier which was Argentina.  So
Argentina whips Maradona into shape, he boosts the side to victory over
Australia, but soon after he is found to be (once again) full of "Bolivian
Marching Powder" (a known stimulant and performance enhancing drug) and is
(once again) booted out of the game.  Me, bitter?  No comment :/

Oceana has only twice AFAIK been represented in the World Cup, by Australia
in '74 and New Zealand sometime after that.  Every other time the rightful
qualifying nation was eliminated by another region's second chance side.
And every time this manipulation of the finals was nothing but a cynical
ploy to get a bigger audience from a region where soccer is the number one
game.

Word Cup?  Perhaps FIFA's Old Boys' Club Cup would be a better name.
Fortunately FIFA has promised to end this manipulation of the finals.  We
will see.

Some obscure sport No, about 5.5 million people in the
world loves it. Just the 0.5 million remaining north Americans
and some crazy people don't know anything about it.

To be true what is going to start this weekend are the finals.
The world cup started last year with almost 200 national teams.
They played against each other in regional groups
(one for south america, europe, north america, africa, asia and
oceania). 4-6 teams from each group qualified to the finals that

The most emabarrassing part is the gobs of money
involved.  Like a few million bucks to air a
one-minute commercial during the Superbowl. 
Everything is so overhyped.  Example: Emmitt Smith of
the Dallas Cowboys writes a gung-ho letter to his
teammates, something like a preseason pep talk, and it
makes the front cover of the Sports section in my city
paper.  Whatever!  I'm not even in Dallas.

Have you ever watched an NFL-Europe game?  Talk about
bizzare.  The one I saw was Rhine vs. Berlin or
Stuttgart (sp?) so everyone in the stands is German. 
The game is called in German at the stadium but the
broadcast is done in English.  All the players are
Americanc and you get the impression that they're the
only Americans in town.  

The only German player I noticed was the kicker for
Rhine (I think it was Rhine.)  Don't remember his
name, but he was a RETIRED soccer player.  The guy was
playing in title matches probably before a lot of his
teammates could walk.  Now he's enjoying life after
soccer as a good place kicker.  What's that tell you
about the toughness required to play American
football?

Hi,

>(that's soccer, you guys)

Magnum have a new book out, published by Phaidon called "Magnum
Football" (that's "Magnum Soccer" in the USA). It's in the same format
as "Magnum Landscape".

Some people might describe it as a cynical plundering of their
archives to throw together a few 2nd rate photos to take advantage of
global frenzy over the 'beautiful game'. However, the book does
contain a lot of interesting and previously unpublished photos in their
own right. There are also some, notably by HC-B, which are from the same
contact sheet as his classics, which show more context, or give an
insight into what he was up to when he took the classics.

Might I be correct in supposing that the Kiwi view is that soccer is for 
poofs?

Having recently immersed myself in an intriguing article on the hunting scene

In view of the large American contingent here, I have decided to offer
rather
generous odds on your team winning the World Cup (that's soccer, you guys).
I
will give you 100-1 odds.

Kind regards

Peter
