Is anyone else following the game?
I've never been a big fan of soccer but a few friends were talking about, I heard some radio talk on it and then I finally watched the first game ever (during the group stage). I have to admit, it's pretty intensev at points. I'm usually a hockey fan although I admit that I never really start watching the game until the Canucks make it into the play offs and, since this is rare, I have my relief for rooting a team on in FIFA.
So as I type this Brazil has already suffered an incredable defeat by Germany (the team I'm rooting for since I decend from german folks) by 7-1 with 5 oals with in the first 30 minutes and Netherlands and Argintina will be playing tomorrow. Now, I'm not too involved with that I'd have a reaction to a loss by my team but Dear lord to see the reaction of the fans is probably my favorite part and in paticularly the brazilian fans reaction from a look of disbelief after the 3rd goal to out right crying by full grown men after the 5th goal kind of tugged at the humor part of my brain, for one thing, it's just a game. That siad, Brazil did have an embarresing loss in their home country to boot.
