Brasil pulls off the win... woke up today at 4:00 to watch. Stream kinda sucked though.

It infuriates me the shit one has to go through to watch certain sports/games!!!

[Maluco]

uhhh... wow. that's all...

Chelsea offering 38.5 for Robinho... I just can't fathom what these guys make for playing what they did as younger versions in their respective neighborhoods. Why, why why!!! did my parents have to move us out of poverty in Brasil! I'd be saving all of us and our generations to come!

Ivory Coast all the way.
This is the best football I've seen in years.
Truly a pleasure to watch.

That's a good price.

I'm surprised they're paying that much for Robinho.... Milan bought up Ronaldo for something like 7.5, and Ronaldinho for around 30, but Robinho goes for 39? Crazy...

Nobody's got any comments on the Olympics??? Semi final games? Awfully quiet here!

Argentina 3-0 Brasil

Brasil gracious losers as always by kicking the shit out of our players legs in the last 10 minutes. ;) Two players sent off. 4 players given yellows.


GOOD LUCK IN THE 3rd PLACE GAME, FELLAS!! ;) Maybe in 2012 you can finally win your first gold like we did in 2004 and possibly this time.


OK OK seriously. I just had to get it out. Sorry!!!

at least Dunga will surely be the fk out of here now... Vanderlei Luxemburgo should be coming back. Just in time to hopefully whip Brasil back into shape for Confederations Cup next year.

I really hope we meet Argentina in the final again.

[CleanAzzE30z]

Man they really dont like him eh? I know how you feel man.

Why so much hate for Dunga?

[Maluco]

I can't express how swift, love for a coach, player or team can switch to hate when it comes to losses and/or not making sense in your strategy; whether on the fans level, media's level or even at CBF.

Dunga now has both losses and the strategy issue to deal with. Our main issue is still the lack of a great forward, which we have always relied on but Dunga has to go at this point.

[CleanAzzE30z]

Same In Argentina. Its a split second between love and hate.
