Re: Who's ready for some Eurocup? - Tragic Hero - 06-09-2008

Yeah im still grieving over that.  Just wait though, Italy will make it out.  They can easily beat France and Romania.  I have no clue what their problem was this game but it is something that Italy can easily overcome. 

To Dave:  At least Italy made it into the Eurocup Big Grin

To Exanimo:  I thought we were friends?

I don't think you were watching the same game.  The Netherlands really put on a great game, but Italy was just scrambling out there.

Even if they beat Romania, they have to get France (who also didn't put up much of a fight today).

Well obviously Netherlands put up a great match but teams can play terrible games.  What I meant was that I have faith that it was just a terrible game for Italy and hopefully they get their act together the upcomming matches.

I never expected that we would so fully dominate Italy, god NL played a good game... We might actually win this whole affair if we keep playing like this... Smile

Yeah you can but if you face Italy again don't expect Italy to roll over that easily for you.  Plus, despite the fact that the other 2 goals were pretty nice, that first goal Van Nisteroy was way offsides.  But thats in the past already....

Well as I told you on steam but going to post it here for other footbal fans who thought it was offside:

The defender behind the lines still counts for the offside rule so it wasn't offside...

Re: Who's ready for some Eurocup? - Dave - 06-10-2008

Italians being drama queens on the field, who woulda thaught of that.....

Re: Who's ready for some Eurocup? - Ianki - 06-10-2008

oh wow, the silliest rule in the world if that didn't count as offsides because of that.  I thought they just gave it to them because it looked so pretty.

Re: Who's ready for some Eurocup? - Tragic Hero - 06-10-2008

Woe is me.  Didn't even see him over there.  Guess that is what happens when you throw in some shmuck to replace one of the greatest defenders in the world.  *sigh*

Well, the offside rule is pretty complex but very needed because the sport would start to resemble tennis if it wasn't there... people would only do long passes past the defense.

All the extra complexity is added to kill exploits... Wink

Steady now. Not to burst your bubble but teams that peak this early rarely win tournaments. I'm still quietly hopeful about my Croatia bet, they played a very mediocre first game and still got the three points.

True dat, that's why I added the 'if we keep playing like this'... We'll know more after the France game.

that's pretty hilarious  ;D a captivating performance!

Re: Who's ready for some Eurocup? - Tragic Hero - 06-11-2008

Pfff captivating.  I heard that Italy felt bad for the Netherlands so they let them win that game.  I'm not selling anyone on that am I...

Well this week should be good.  Besides seeing Italy turn things around I can't wait to see Spain play again.

I've backed Spain in every tournament for the last 10 years so the chances are they will win this time now I've finally decided to do someone else.

I'm pissed that Croatia beat Germany.
