Haha, could be, but we'll see. 5

Whatever happens I'm hoping for a tight game. They deserve a crush though.

"So, how did the band get back together? Who made the call?" I boldly asked Duff McKagan. "Hmm.. I haven't rehearsed these answers. I haven't done any interviews about this yet," he joked.

Nice dodge Duff.

Guess we won't be seeing any interviews soon. Axl got them scared.

For some reason I was expecting more sad.

It's more of a personal matter.

Come on Portugal, crush the frogs. 19

Nut.
France have won all their games bar one draw. Portugal have played small, weak teams and only beaten Wales in normal time. They only won one other game and it was in the 119th minute ffs. France have just beaten the reigning world champions, a nation they hadn't beaten in a competitive game for 58 years, a team that had been in the semi finals of every major tournament for the past decade, a team against who they were outclassed for long periods but dug in and fought for their victory.

You'd think given the trauma of their recent history it would engender some goodwill towards the French & the team representing them, but apparently that's in short supply. Not to mention the skill, panache & endeavour they've performed with.


+ Ronaldo's a cunt.

+ Pepe's a massive cunt.

+ Nani.

Portugal are a shit team. They are allowed to play like cowards. The French on home soil, with the best squad alongside Germany, are not. Getting to to the final beating small teams then lucking out when real opposition is met is not someone who deserves to win a tournament. Best game Germany played in the whole EURO's, and maybe the worst France played, and the scoreline is 0-2? Somebody's having a laugh up there.

My goodwill for the French ended somewhere in the middle ages. The match last night certainly doesn't help matters any further. Hope they burn and never recover.

Hope France gets trashed in embarrassing fashion. Hat trick for Ronaldo and a red card for Pogba. Ridiculous if that team wins it. At least Portugal has fought for it.

Let's try and keep the US vs. Europe to a minimum here. Use the election thread instead.
