adrball said:you sound bias [/QUOTE
As do you, and you also sound like an appeaser, a spokesperson for the rights of the criminal over the rights of the victim. Zidane was the thug, Materazzi did nothing wrong, yet you say he shouldn't profit ?

Here we go again. why shouldn't he profit ? he didn't do anything wrong, he did something that's done in every game by most players in every major sport.
Get a courtside nba ticket sometime and listen to what goes on, I've been on an NFL field sideline a few times also, what Materazzi said was mild in comparison. Same in soccer, just normal trash talking. Good for him! Hope he made a bundle !

FIFA president Sepp Blatter said plans were afoot for the two players to be reunited, and one possibility was using the site of the notorious prison where former South African president Nelson Mandela was held.
"We are working on bringing together Materazzi and Zidane," Blatter said in Berlin.
"There are different possibilities and one of them is Robben Island in South Africa where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years."

DaveC said:An integral part of sports is trying to throw the opposition off their game, and Materazzi has shown himself to be the master at it. Michael Jordan did the same thing in nearly every match, and nobody gets in Jordan's grill the way they do Materazzi.

Yeah, right, they're going to be known as the team who failed TWICE to make the European Championships after winning the World Cup

Italy dove to victory with White Smoke and Mirrors.

Numbers aside, they were the icing on the embellishment cake. I do not contest their title, and I do not consider other teams more worthy, but I think it's well within reason to not be satisfied with their means of victory. "Whatever it takes" is an outdated mantra. If the winning example is like that of World Cup '06, futbol will continue to degrade into stalemating and conduct becoming of a lemming.
Much like the state of ice hockey ten years ago.
