In Reply To: alonso's post @ Jul 12 2010, 12:01 PM alonso, it is nice technical stuff, just not my personal preference. The new generation balls just fly.The Spaniards do it very well though. -------------------- Day Trader: Lowest form of life in the known universe.

In Reply To: balance's post @ Jul 12 2010, 11:19 AM Both teams played well. When it gets near the end of extra time it can go either way. Don't know about boring as bat poop balance, I think Spain played a beautiful passing game. I might just be getting old but it seems to me they all pass the ball about twice as fast as they used to. -------------------- The only certainty is that nothing is certain (somebody must have said that), but I'm not even sure about that.
"The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true" Have you done a simple task the same way for years only to suddenly one day stumble on a better way to do it and wonder why you didn't think of it in the first place? Habit must be one of the biggest roadblocks to human progress . . .along with stupidity. Now we know how the Romans felt in 410 AD. Ooops, politically incorrect . . .twice. |

In Reply To: blueice's post @ Jul 12 2010, 09:52 AM congrats the the Spaniards. I was betting on a german cup after the socceroos exited.When the Germans push forward hard and fast it is brilliant.They were awful against Spain. Spain played technical ,disciplined football.Boring as bat poop but then again what would I know? They won. -------------------- Day Trader: Lowest form of life in the known universe.

The beautiful game was just that last night and Argentina has served notice on Germany.
Viva Maradona! PS arty, where did you get my photo? -------------------- The only certainty is that nothing is certain (somebody must have said that), but I'm not even sure about that.

"The Origin of the vuvuzela"
I just received a research report on the origin of that tooting thing that annoys visitors and TV viewers watching the matches. Contrary to the Host Nation's claims, it was actually invented by our Northern neighbours. The name is derived from "fuzzy-wuzzy", as would have been obvious to any amateur phoneticist, if only they'd been asked the question... But the most striking proof is in pictures like this: -------------------- I trade daily, but I am not a licensed adviser. Whether you find my ideas reasonable or not: The only person responsible for your actions is YOU.
I follow two rules: (1) There are no sacred truths. All assumptions must be critically examined. Arguments from authority are worthless. (2) Whatever is inconsistent with observed facts must be discarded or revised. We must understand the Market as it is and not confuse how it is with how we wish it to be. (inspired by Carl Sagan) |

In Reply To: grommit's post @ Jun 17 2010, 03:02 PM Didn't Pim Verbeek talk trash about the A-League?!?! Don't most Kiwi players play in the A-League?!?! -------------------- IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH MY OPINION....YOU ARE A BUM.
