Quoting Sabena332 (Reply 16): Well, I think I will take a one week break from work (officially sick) to watch sports.
Sure would love to do the same, but I need the money . That said, I doubt there'll be too much to do, with most people being preoccupied with the games.

Quoting DAL767400ER (Reply 210): I still like those commercials, though that might be that I don't see them too often.
See, here in the States they show that commercial three times, give or take, per broadcast: once before the game starts (on the commercial break between the opening analyses and kick-off,) at half-time and between the time the match is over and the time they come back for the final analysis of the game. So 3 times per game X 62 matches, that's a staggering 186 times that I'll get to see that chubby kid say "Beckenbauer? Haha!"
*yawn* Dear Portgual: could you be any more boring?
Anyway, onward to Day 4:
AUS - JPN 2:1
USA - CZE 1:3
ITA - GHA 2:0

Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 17): And I thought Germans were hard-working professionals
Not during the World Cup.
I just decided. I will call my old friend Dr. P. tomorrow and tell him that he should send a sickness certificate to my company's human resources department. Afterwards I will rent a truck to get rid of all the empty bottles and to carry on new beer.

Oh dear. I thought it's just something we do over here.
The only time there is too much fuel onboard, is when you're on fire!
25 Aleksandar: It's always a Dr. P, but he can also be A,B,C,D or whatever as long as he writes notes.
26 Senorcarnival: You should see it in Brazil. People get to go home early from work. I don't mean sneak out either, your shift ends early so you can go watch the game
27 Lijnden: Australia-Japan: 2-1 USA- Czech Republic: 3-2 Italia-Ghana: 1-2 Australia is a hard team. They will scare Japan USA is more used to the heat wave Ghan

80 DAL767400ER: Well, not the Czechs, but the Japanese, or more specifically coach Zico, are complaining that the lawn in Kaiserslautern is cut too tall, and that's
81 Sabena332: Oh, the next game starts in half an hour, time to shower and to get the beers ready. Nippon will kick the Aussies ass, they played damned good in the
82 Ryanb741: Japan just scored against the run of play. I'm cheering on the Aussies though
83 Banco: Japan score, but that had to have been a foul on Schwarzer, surely?
84 NIKV69: There was a lot of contact but no call. So.. GGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL Monty must be nervous, with Brazil in this group AUS may not get ou
85 9V-SPF: against a non existent defense though... According to the FIFA regulations, yes, definitely.
86 Mirrodie: Halftime. Japan mnust be paying off the referee. Bad call. BUt the Socceroos have another 45 mins to equalize!
87 VH-KCT*: Aargh! I want that ref's head on a plate! We needed Kewell to score on that run immediately after, now we're gonna have to do it the hard way. Come on
88 Zen100: I want Ghana to win. I have been to Italy and i didn't like it. So Ghana for me.
89 NIKV69: Come on Mario that was a good goal! (biggrin} The ref screwed up big time, but the goal stands so Monty's boys better get it in gear or they will be
90 QantasA332: OMFG. I'm bloody furious. We were playing brilliantly, then the ref comes to Japan's rescue. Earlier in the game, Viduka bumps the Japanese keeper and
91 NIKV69: Yes I do and you crybabies better bet get the ball in the net soon, you are playing so bad in the second half now. Not a surprise you haven't been in
92 LOT767-300ER: You didnt like it because its a free country with a higher GDP! GO SOCCEROOS!!!! Yes, its on as I just woke up!
93 LOT767-300ER: If anyone in the USA is watching ESPN2.... Why the shitting hell do they keep on talking about the USA-CZE game every 2 seconds, guessing lineups etc.
94 Banco: It's the same everywhere, mate. Annoying, isn't it?
95 NIKV69: WHAT A SAVE! AUD just had their best chance to tie this up and got stuffed!
96 LOT767-300ER: Most annoying...most annoying. More annoying than a Yankee driver.
103 LOT767-300ER: LMFAO Patrick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jesus tap dances! Feck yes! Go Australia! Japan is getting a footballing clinic compliments of Cahill/Aussie!
104 RJ100: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2-1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Three points for RJ100
105 9V-SPF: Fantastic, that´s football how I love it Congratulations to the Aussies, they never gave up and finally got rewarded for some great effort.
118 Sabena332: It's over, the Aussies won, what a surprise! Congrats to them, what an exciting final! Patrick

125 VH-KCT*: YEAH! What a great finish for Australia! Woo hoo! C'mon Aussie! That makes Tim Cahill the first Australian to score for Australia at a World Cup!
126 LOT767-300ER: I think the expectations of the USA team are maybe too high because they did so good in 2002. Im not sure that they can pull this off. My favorite pla
127 NAV20: Good for Oz. Not that it was ever in doubt... Good luck USA.
128 NIKV69: Right here, don't worry, you are going to get waxed by Brazil so you better get some points in the last game of the group.
129 CPH-R: I have 2 Czech & 2 US players, all from the offensive line, on my "World Cup Manager" team at the moment, so I'm hoping for a game with plenty of goal

134 PerthGloryFan: AUS 3 Japan 1 YES!!! Although until 84 minutes it was Japan 1, AUS 0 PGF
135 DAL767400ER: Typical, the first match that I can't watch thanks to work, and it turns out to have one of the best finishes yet. Oh well, on to USA vs CZE now, and
136 LOT767-300ER: God is smighting you for being a fan of Bayern! Man, I have a feeling Jan Koller will fly in this one.
137 DAL767400ER: Perhaps . But thinking about all the good games I've seen and title celebrations, it was wort it .
138 LOT767-300ER: O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!!!!!!!!!! Playyyyyyyyyy ball!
139 Sabena332: The US flag is flying in front of my house..... now I want to see some goals! Patrick
140 LOT767-300ER: GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLL KOLLER IS SCHOOLING THE USA!!!! I TOLD YOU HE WOULD FLY!
143 Q330: Fantastic header by Koller! -Q Oh yeah, and GO THE SOCCEROOS!!!!!
144 NIKV69: All this build up and the USA lets a guy head one in right in front of the net, play some damn defense!
145 Racko: interesting, koller doesn't have to jump for a header, he just walks against the ball with his head.
146 LOT767-300ER: I dont hate the Czech Rep, they are Polands closest cousins here. ESPN2 is preaching that the USA can get back into it and they are prepared. I dont b

159 LOT767-300ER: Whenever the Czech Rep crosses by the USA goal Kasey Keller better be praying. No way you can stop Koller up there!
160 Planespotting: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! that was a great shot...damn post. first real bit of offense i've seen the whole game from the US!! keep it up.
162 Sabena332: Damn it, that was almost a goal! Patrick
163 LOT767-300ER: REYNA OFF THE POST!!!! BTW, the Czech rep passing game is Grade A, they are toying with the USA when they are passing. BTW, Brian McBride lives 4 mile
164 Senorcarnival: Primadonovan is such a friggin' diver...
165 PerthGloryFan: Australia's last (and only previous) appearence at the World Cup was in 1974 in the then "West" Germany. There they lost two games and drew one witho
166 LOT767-300ER: "Almost" is a popular word in the USA. Czech passing game is unreal though, such precision from Rosicky.
169 9V-SPF: Ooooh, great goal! Now it´s gonna be tough for the US team.
170 LOT767-300ER: GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL WHAT A GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!! USA IS GOING TO GET THEIR ASS WHOOPED. WELCOME TO EUROPE BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBI
171 NIKV69: Ouch, that was some goal, 2-0 and not looking too good. Just think at 3PM EST its ITALIA!
172 Sabena332: Both ex Dortmund player scored. Patrick
173 DAL767400ER: F*ck that. The US is clearly the more active team, and then comes that money-greedy SOB Rosicky with a lucky kick, dammit.
174 LOT767-300ER: The USA is about to see Czech wrath!
175 Bravo45: Hahaha I see you have changed your flag.
176 NIKV69: You better play a lot better than you did today, Brazil will run down the field and score all day on you guys.
177 LOT767-300ER: I dont think thats true, the USA looks out of sync. Czech passing is grade A today.
178 Planespotting: man. the united states is not showing pretty much any emotion or enthusiasm for this game at all. they're passing is innaccurate, their goal-box play
179 Sabena332: I agree, watching Nedved passing on Koller is a pleaure for the eyes. Koller currently injured on the field, btw. Patrick
180 LOT767-300ER: Yea Koller is out. He looks bad.
181 Bravo45: Hmm this strategy of injuring their top players may actually be the only thing that can work. lolz Koller out...
182 Sabena332: Hopefully nothing serious, I hope to see him playing again in the upcoming games. Patrick
183 Sabena332: I just checked the game stats and it seems that the USA's offside trap is working well, the Czechs already run five times into it. Patrick
184 DAL767400ER: Well, Koller is out, that can only be an advantage for the US. Lokvenc will replace him. If you don't him, that's one of the guys who wasn't even good
185 AR385: Well, at least you are able to order cheesesteak sandwiches in Philadelphia[Edited 2006-06-12 18:55:42]
186 LOT767-300ER: Which doesnt say much when the USA has players in Reading and Leeds United!!!!!!!
187 Sabena332: Update on Koller, according to a team member is a muscle in his leg torn up, currently he is on the way to the hospital. Patrickj
189 Planespotting: ahhhhck, quit trying to get it on the cross USA!!! your crosses are ALL off the mark and end up in a change of possession! ack.
190 Oli80: Well done Australia and Hiddink! He has done great things for that team. 6 months ago this would never have happened. I wonder whether I should place
191 Sabena332: And offside again, will they learn it? Patrick
192 9V-SPF: US team has to be careful now unless they are in desperate need of getting their butts kicked...I hope they can recover and bring back some tension by
199 Mirrodie: welll, hold up, there is the final goal 3-0
200 Sabena332: Rosicky at it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn, again a fantastic goal! Patrick
201 Bravo45: A very convincing goal!! Nice job CZE.
202 LOT767-300ER: GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL ROSICKY AGAIN! As I said before my friends. Czech passing is Grade A today by Nedved! US Defense cant stop Rosicky!
204 Planespotting: game. clearly the US team got what it deserved today. Probably the worst played game of the cup so far by any team, especially one supposedly ranked 5
206 LOT767-300ER: Man Rosicky/Nedved/Koller trio has finished off any hopes that the USA has of winning this game. Well done CZE, Well done taking down the USA!
207 9V-SPF: Ooops, somebody apparently changed his flag...most probably just until Wednesday night though
208 NIKV69: The US really looked good today their defense was awful. 90 Mins to the AZURRIII!!
209 DAL767400ER: Man, if only Rosicky had once even remotedly played as good for Dortmund as he does for the Czechs . Fussball-S�ldner.
210 Oli80: Looks like Arsenal grabbed a bargain at just the right time. If he continues like this, he will be worth much more after the WC. Now all we need is Ju
211 LOT767-300ER: Wed. night I dont change my flag. Thursday I fly to Poland!
212 9V-SPF: Just in time to welcome your team back home
213 Bravo45: Well and that somebody apparently missed my post up there a while ago. BTW the flag was changed after this game started. No wonder why
214 LOT767-300ER: No. If Ebi Smolarek played even remotely as good for Poland as he does for Borussia Dortmund!
215 Bravo45: Oh ok. Its just that I noticed you changed it not a very long time ago. I bet its a coincidence.
216 LOT767-300ER: Polak is now on the field...beware of the secret weapon! What does it matter if I change my flag? Both teams lost!
217 DAL767400ER: He does. After all, he only scored one measly goal in the second half of the season . In 17 games!
218 LOT767-300ER: Yes, but he scored many more in the first half of the season. Announced on ESPN2 "Polak went down hard"
219 Pilotaydin: I say CZE make it to at least the 1/2 final with this sort of play!
220 LOT767-300ER: Better than Makaay, who cant even make the nat'l squad!
221 Bravo45: Alright games over!!! USA 0 - CZE 3 A very deserving end to the game. Congrats to the Czech Rep, The US cut down to size. They really got better than
222 Sabena332: It's over, pretty entertaining game, the Czechs are in a very good condition. Patrick
223 9V-SPF: Shall I refer to some stats...err...Smolarek vs. Makaay...err...better not, I´m gracious today.
224 LOT767-300ER: The Czech Republic unleashed a boyhood spanking to the United States. And Tomas Rosicky personally just took apart the team..of all people Rosicky.
225 Sabena332: Ok, now we have a 1:10 hour break, then is Italy playing vs. Ghana. Patrick
226 Aviationmaster: I think the US Team just got a reality check after losing 0-3 to the Czechs. Italia won't be easier!
227 9V-SPF: ITA vs. GHA is going to be the first game for me to miss Some friends wheedled me to go bowling with them tonight. I hope they have a TV there...and b
228 Planespotting: whoa! The ESPN commentators are arguing with each over over why the team was so shitty today, haha. it's getting kind of heated. Alexi Lalas looks pii
229 RJ100: Oh nooo, Italy! We will see a boring 1-0 victory (scored with a penalty) then...
230 9V-SPF: The penalty being obtained by fraud (Inzaghi)
231 Banco: To be fair, I doubt if even the American players would claim they are the 5th best team in the world. The FIFA rankings are a joke, and everyone know
233 Aviationmaster: I hope Italy loses and Switzerland wins tomorrow It will shut all Italian fans including the bandwagon ones up... plus with Italy losing, expect a qu
234 Sabena332: Damn, I forgot to put beer into the fridge, I hope I get it cold till 9. *turns cooling level to maximum* Patrick
235 Daz34: italy 3-0 ghana ......and poland not to score a single goal in this world cup! daz
237 Sabena332: Not bad, I have a fridge full of warm Erdinger cans currently. I think it won't get cold till kick-off so I will make a quick trip to the gas station
238 Cosec59: Make sure at least 2 are cold. After that does it really matter?
239 Sabena332: I just returned from the gas station next door with 2 bottles of ice cold Erdinger, when I finished them, the other bottles in the fridge are cold. P
240 QANTASforever: As our national broadcaster put it, when Australia scored its second goal, the ref must have been counting his blessings. He made a bad call in my op
241 Sabena332: Damn, the first big chance for Italy, unfortunately only on the crossbar. Patrick
242 Doug_Or: Both sides playing well, I think any hopes for the US are gone. If Ghana and Italy play this well agianst the US we may go home 0-3.
243 Mke717spotter: Well it looks like I'm kinda late here to this thread but I'll join in anyways. I'd be cheering for USA & Poland although both didn't play all to well
244 Sabena332: Goooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllll................... 1:0 Italy! Patrick
245 Mke717spotter: GOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL ITALYYYYYYY - but this one is FAR from over!
246 NIKV69: GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL I love it! What a goal, the Azurri look great!
247 Sabena332: Nice game so far from both teams, I hope for more goals in the 2nd half. Patrick
248 RJ100: Hehehe, I think Ghana's goalkeeper is too funny
249 Aviationmaster: hahaha by watching him fly through the Strafraum, he makes Zubi look like a world class keeper
250 RJ100: Hahaha , but I fear we will stop laughing tomorrow Second half starts now
251 NIKV69: He is playing a horrible game, they are lucky they are only down one goal.
252 Mke717spotter: What?! I'd have to argue about that since both Goalkeepers have had some great saves!
253 Senorcarnival: I don't think we're watching the same game, Nik. The Ghanese 'keeper is pretty much keeping them in the game. It's their defense that seem to be mess
254 Doug_Or: amen just had a great save (half luck, sure)
255 Bravo45: Shouldn't that have been a penalty??? Tough luck Ghana.
256 Mke717spotter: So far I think he's got 11 saves although Ghana better start thniking more about their offense now since the clock is ticking!
257 LTU932: And I hope Brazil will stop laughing tommorow. Go Croatia! Great to see Italy winning, although not with the result I expected. BTW, there's an Itali
258 Mke717spotter: Yikes! Bit of a controversial call there! Looks like he was on route to score!
