I guess you didn't hear they had already planned a HUGE "Celebration Parade".

It was planned to start toward the Sudentenland, Poland......:D

Cheers to everyone involved with this thread, thanks to LittleDevilWithAHalo for starting it.

Lets do this again in 2006. It was fun.

Bye.
 
Everyone take some time to toast the Bayer Leverkusan fans out there. The lose the Bundesliga title on the last day of the season, lose in the final of the German Cup, lose in the finals of the Champions League, and then watch Germany lose the World Cup Final. That's like distilling all the Buffalo Bills Super Bowl traumas into a four month period. That's why I was rooting for Germany so hard, so those poor people would have something to cheer. Alas.

Ronaldo had to wait 4 years to redeem himself on the World stage, and he did it like the phenomenon he is. You haven't heard his name in discussions of the world's best player since '98, but after the injuries and problems, he showed again that he's the most dangerous player in the world.

It took Ronaldo four years to bury the demons, and now France, Argentina, Portugal, and Italy have to wait four years to exorcise their Asian disaster. Germany gets to gear up for 2006, playing on their home turf. England gets four years to build on what they accomplished. And the US has four years to, hopefully, keep their fans interested enough to make 2006 an even bigger success.

No more soccer till the Premiership kicks off. When's that? August? A lot of pooped players out there.

If you get ESPN2, there's still twelve more MLS Saturday games to go, plus three or four MLS games on ABC.
 
Brasil!

Congrats to the samba kings on world title number 5. Some redemption for Ronaldo in this one. He disappeared in the 98 final. Not this time. You might still convince me to give the mvp to Kahn. A phenomenal tournament for him, too.

i second that.
 
Whoops! Forgot all about the MLS. And I actually WATCH the MLS games. Haven't gone to see a Pittsburgh Riverhounds game yet (they play in the A-league) because they play on the other side of the city from me, and with construction in town in would take me like 90 minutes to get there.

So, apologies to the MLS, sponsers of this years World Cup coverage. I'll watch the next game, promise!
