10 Things That Sucked About the World Cup
Tuesday, July 11, 2006
10. Two cumulative yellow cards per round put you out for the next game. They should make it three. The Ghana vs Brazil game was ruined because Essien could not play.
9. The Draw: Ukraine, Togo, Suadi Arabia and Spain vs NED, ARG, Cote and S&M
8. That a very talented Spanish team once again felt the wrath of the soccer gods and were dismissed prematurely.
7. Trying to watch a game later at night on a replay without learning the score beforehand.
6. Christiano Ronaldo
5. Italy's "Celebration". When you win the big one...act like you've been there before. (ie: keep your pants on and your captain lifts the trophy first.)
4. Budweiser as a title sponsor (it's supposed to be heineken...it has always been heineken)
3. The diving: they weren't even good dives.
2. That guy who reffed the NED-POR game.
1. Lionel Messi and Ruud Van Nistleroy sat on the bench as both of their teams were eliminated from the world cup. (both teams in desperate need of a goal)
