excuse me for asking, but has anybody succeeded in buying GA tickets in the last 2/3 hours? some people are saying that general admission tickets sold out already a few hours ago.. is that true? can anyone confirm that? I'm a boot member so I'd like to know my chances beforehand.. eh :ohmy:

I ABSOLUTELY AGREE :drool:

I agree Popmart dvd :drool: but no Milan :(

nice pictures of the guys! :hyper: Larry and Bono look much younger with their hair short :) :yes:

damn I was really looking fwd to that dvd....... :( :( :(

OT they had suspects maybe, we all did.... I'm talking about Juventus because their match-fixing was really obvious sometimes - that's why they're often called "gobbi ladri" which means "thieves". it's sad because they were a GREAT team with great players (during the WC final there were like 11...

did I say what he did was right? no. so you're basically saying that what Zidane did is excusable... great. what about Totti? he was provoked too. did that make it right? not at all. but of course if Zidane does it, then it's gotta be right! after all it was not the first time he did that...

of course it doesn't... but if I had to decide I would have picked Cannavaro, not only because I'm Italian ( :wink: ) but also because he played great in each and every match. Zidane only played very good against Brazil, which (sadly) wasn't a real threat that night... LOL my thoughts are along...

??? what for?! he didn't say anything racist or political, he didn't insult his mother... ??? I was the first one to say that if he did say something racist he should be punished, but he didn't! if you want to punish players for talking dirty, fine, do it (I'm sure few players would get to the...

just after the final Blatter said they were considering taking the award away from Zidane because of the awful red card (I read the whole interview on the gazzetta.it website), so they DID have the power to strip him of the title if they really wanted to. but of course they wouldn't do that...

ops... double posted :reject:

I did not excuse him AT ALL, what he did was awful, I think it was a bad choice for Lippi to make him play since he is so young and inexpert. and btw I can assure you that in Italy he got the treatment he deserved; the press here has been pretty merciless with both him and Totti (in Italy Totti...

Cannavaro? :wink: he played great through the whole tournament and didn't go headbutting anyone :D no, it was Japan-Korea 2002 (a WC we don't like to talk about for obvious reasons :D ) I did not forget about that, but: 1) De Rossi got 5 game suspensions, Zidane only 3 (doesn't affect him...

I'm just curious to see how FIFA will handle similar cases in the future, that's all... IF they will handle them. imo, Zidane had a special treatment because this is the first time the offender gets punished (what about Poulsen? he annoyed Totti though the whole game and called his mom names...

secondo il regolamento FIFA sei autorizzato a rispondere con una testata :D j/k... :wink: I do think Zidane is making a fool out of himself, FIFA just helped him and managed to make a fool out of itself in the process. they settled a VERY dangerous precedent for the future, I don't think...

"see Baggio - Brazil VS Italy '94" :( :( :( :wink: "there's a reason he's Buffon and you're whoever you are"... LOL

nice game: http://www.pumafootball.com/buffon.jsp LOL :lol: I only scored 3... damn he's good :wink: :D

for those who understand Italian, here's the interview to Materazzi from today's Gazzetta: http://www.corriere.it/Primo_Piano/Sport/2006/07_Luglio/13/materazzi.shtml

"Italians always act like this," he told AFP. "It is a shame to say that, but when they feel they are being dominated they try to provoke you. "Yes, they are cheaters, but we can't stop that. Fifa and the referees only see the second act, they never look at why there is an incident. "I accept...

he should be punished if he really made some racist comments, I said that from the very first moment. I was just reading a funny article on the Gazzetta website: there's this french lawyer who, lol, wants a rematch of the final because, according to him (but non to the FIFA...) the ref didn't...

no... rumour has it that he could go to Manchester Utd along with Lippi.... but that is just a rumour, he has a family here in Italy and he said he'd rather stay an play in his country :shrug:

or we could talk about Cannavaro... :drool: eheh j/k :wink: anyway, the Gazzetta interviewed Materazzi just a few hours ago and they will publish the article tomorrow... he spoke about the incidend with Zidane too. let's hear what he has to say :shrug:

Materazzi isn't a genius, I can easily believe he doesn't know what terrorist means... or at least, I can believe that he wouldn't use it as an insult. and btw, I never said that Materazzi is a saint. but as you said trash talk happens (I don't like it, but it happens) and a professionist must...

he didn't, not to Materazzi. he just apologized to the kids and his supporters... I'm not saying you shouldn't stand by Zidane if you love him so much, but he's not a saint either... a hit like that could have stopped a human heart, he's been lucky that nothing happened. that said, I'm sure the...

I don't. how do you know they were? :wink: Zidane said nothing about racist words, and Materazzi said he doesn't even know what "terrorist" means. what lips-readers and mind-readers say, I don't care. they're just speculating to sell more copies of their magazine or get more people to watch...
