Phwoar… did not realise my dislike for Team France festering for so many years.
more football thoughts… 6/12/2002
deal with it. I’m not going to get over this football mania at least till the week after the final match.
France didn’t get into the second round. I feel bad that I feel so good. Know what I mean? Sort of like, I feel validated because I always thought the team was overrated but at the same time, so many frenchies had so much hope. C’est la vie, n’est ce pas? Last note on France — if it wasn’t for the talent of one man, Zidane, these guys would have had no chance of even glimpsing the Cup 4 years ago.
Was talking to D tonight and she told me this idiot who wrote to USA Today about how soccer is such a violent sport (fans rioting) and that is why soccer never caught on in the States; because Americans are above all that. Um, yeah.. not even gonna waste my time
Can’t wait for tomorrow to be over. It’s rather nice to have a 3-day week. It still seems so darn long. At the very least, I’m off to northern cali this weekend. I heard them people are more laid back up there. I’ll have a report on that next week.
