 | | USA soccer team at the World Cup.... —Steffan Davies
|
| | | I know a lot of people in the States could give a flying whatsit and a rolling doughnut about the World Cup (or US soccer in general). But I have only one thing to say after the fantastic USA vs. Portugal game.... EAT IT PORTUGAL!!!!!! : )P USA-3 (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

| | | | | (...) Easy there, champ. There are some Portuguese who read LUGNET and I'm sure they feel badly enough having lost to the lowly Americans. We Americans *don't* take our soccer that seriously, so lighten up, Francis;-) -John (22 years ago, 5-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

We deserved to lose, end of story. (...) :-) We do. It's a (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Oh, and may I take this opportunity to state that Richard uses obscene gestures the way others might use clay or Sculpy-- with his gesticulations he creates obscenities that border on being art.

That will be interesting, to see the group's (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

We lost. :-( Never before I had seen so many people struggling to keep tears away from their faces, knowing that (...) (22 years ago, 14-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
