futbal

ok... for all practical purposes the only reason, or rather 2 reasons i'm blogging is cos' i just got back to library and i'm looking for excuses not to start studying again... ANDDD... bcos' su chuen dropped by to say that my posts are short... which they are-lah...
ok, i'm so tempted to end this post right here and go look for something else to do...
heheh... eehhhnneeeway...
its not really that i'm so sooooo-per busy that i don't have time to post... more like, nothing much to post about...
anyway... since its world cup season, and since i actually have been spending a lot of my time watching matches or sleeping to recover from watching matches, i think the world cup deserves some mention at least in my blog...
i was quite disappointed that ghana failed to beat brazil... i mean... really... even though, like they're the world champions and ghana is some noob team from africa... but for some reason, i was really hoping that they would defy the odds, bookies, irritatingly noisy brazilian supporters who only support brazil cos' they're winning and many other defyable things to, maybe against all hope, defeat brazil... or at least score a goal-lah...
well, they came close, and they provided some entertaing football... not really by playing it, but by allowing brazil to play it on them... and not for lack of trying, but well... really bcos' of some defending naivete and just plain noobness in front of goal-lah...
but well, it actually really is, quite a imba situation... i mean like, if you've played in your umpteenth world cup, won quite a few, and making it to the quarter's is no big deal for you cos' you actually KNOW what to do... quite frankly, it's not easy for some newcomer who's never played in the world cup or played against a mega professional team in a KNOCKOUT competition(which is way different from playing in a group)... well, life's unfair... the winner's will keep on winning, and the losers will keep on losing...

oh, by the way... in all practicality, germany looks good to win this world cup if they make it past argentina, failing which, argentina will win, failing which... italy(who alredi have a free ticket to the semis) will beat brazil in the semis and proceed to life the world cup... but not brazil... no way... cos' brazil... brazil musn't win... it'll somehow upset the balance of good and evil in the world and precipitate a cataclysmic sequence of events that'll bring about the end of the world...
yah... brazil musn't win... :)
