How is it that after a tense game, the 1st thing we do is jump on Exporoz?
I can sense a thesis coming on...

I remember watching "Snoopy" the helicopter playing soccer with his "handler" at the
Melbourne show years ago.
Snoopy was a Bell 206 from the Army base at
Oakey and
the pilot was brilliant. The bloke on the ground had nerves of steel too. They wouldn't do it now, a full sized helicopter flying around inside the main area - ouch!

What a great game, like Brazil, the boys looked good enough to beat them many times BUT just can't seem to get the ball into the net.
Maybe they might have a better chance against Italy.

We need a decent strategy. Perhaps if we had the female half of the supporters remove their tops during the Italian match ?

F'loosie, some of the girls the camera focus on you half expect to flash em! It doens't happen despite my calls.
Mike doesn't seem quite as articulate this morning. I thought seeing the two lines in the original post he was off running round the pitch with his shirt over his head ;^)

John, it's difficult to be articulate if you've been up all night watching that game.
I've never played a game where the fans have even contemplated doing that. If they had, I *might* have been distracted, and I'm not even Italian.
Oh lets face it, even as a spectator I'd be distracted :))
