It's German for "Germany is going to be the best football nation again."


SORRY! I messed it up. I didn't read the posts on page 5 and I can't delete my post

fan of Universidad de Chile, a team from Chile (Marcelo Sala's team...)
and i love football, maybe too much
i think rest of sports don't have that enthusiasm
even tennis i consider a litle bit boring ( and it says that a guy from the country of Marcelo Rios, pure talent on the field...)

I remember Marcelo Salas and Zamorano. They played in Italy and I first saw them at the World Cup in France in 1998 when playing against the Italian team. It was the first match for these two teams and they fouled each other all the time. It was terrible. But it made me know that Chile exists These two were great players... do they still play in a league you know?

Zamorano is retired
Salas now isn't playing, waiting the new owners of my club, which is broken (but still play...)

speaking as an American High school student, I cant stand it. bunch of pricks if you ask me.
I played both "football" and "football" and enjoyed both. Different sports. Both are hellaciously fun. I never understood why "football" players thought they had to diss "football" players, and on the other hand why "football" players dissed "football" players.

Both are fun games.

I love football - the proper one, not US.

I love it, to see west ham stay up in the premier-league and i hope they keep Carlos Tevez next year.

Who though Beckham played well on his returning game? He was inches away from that goal - shame =(

It would be nice for Westham to keep Tevez but I don't believe in that.

I think Beckham played well although I didn't see the whole match.


/me looks up how much an inch is in cm
Well, inches away doesn't sound that bad... It was a good freekick, I think.

I seriously think football should carry a health warning.

Although I live on Mars they do have sky and I get to see my team almost weekly. I cannot watch the game live,I have to record it and then get the result instantly. Gone are the days when i could spend 90 mins. hoping for the best and fearing the worst. The old ticker just can't take it But whatever the Mighty Blues will always be an addictive passion
Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes
