Yarp.

Haha

Well. Spell check didn't have a problem with it, so I didn't even think about it. I guess we do spell it differently. Woohoo! Take that! Inches and miles! Gallons! Aluminum!

Hahaha, I love it!

Haha. Nice. Did I tell you I saw FMJ just yesterday? I can't remember.

That is legit.

Best ninja ever

I'm a big sports person and a 1-1 draw is not a huge upset for me; it takes more than just that. All the other huge upsets in past World Cup play a team lost that should've won, yet this was just a draw. The upset in 1950 where the U.S beat England a lot of the U.S players weren't professionals either, yet they won. A huge upset would be something like the 2004 American League Championship Series (Baseball) where the New York Yankees had a 3-0 series lead over their arch-rivals the Boston Red Sox - the biggest rivalry in Baseball and one of the biggest in the world. No team in baseball has ever come back down three games to none (best of 7) to win the series, yet Boston came back and won their final two games in Yankee Stadium, in the Bronx, in the House that Ruth built. That is a huge upset and a huge comeback, the Yankees should have won the series and were very close to winning in Game 4.

I'm mostly of Italian descent and I'm backing the U.S team as well.

I didn't watch the video but some plays they did act however New Zealand's players did the same when the clock was nearing the finish; it's one aspect of soccer/futbol I do not like - play the game. The score could've been 0-0 easily since the New Zealand player, as you said and as was, offsides since the ball hit a NZ player before the Italian defenseman. As for the shirt tug, it is a penalty in FIFA, the player shouldn't have held, the ref properly called the penalty, however the Italian did over-act, which does not take away that the shirt tug is a penalty.

I just had to get him into the game. Now that he is in it is all fair game. To quote and old proverb, "all is fair in love and war."

When you said New Caledonia, I immediately googled it. I've never heard of it before and ended up on Google Maps... Why is everything in Australasia named after Scottish things? Hamilton... Perth... Invercargill... New Caledonia... Napier... Dunedin... Oban... Ben Lomond... Brisbane... Stirling...

Cars in general just annoy me. Everything about driving is just so damn expensive, lessons, tests, insurance, actual cars, petrol. Why on earth does anyone bother? They're terrible for the enviroment as well, I'm guessing by 2030 most of today's cars will be banned.

Goodness gracious I hate sunburn. If ever the sun shines in Scotland the end result is sunburn.

Whenever I go to Spain I have to wear the highest-factor suntan lotion that I can find, since my shoulders have become permamently scarred from an unfortunate peeling incident. Sleeveless t-shirts are just impossible for me to wear.

Skin cancer is surprisingly common in the UK as well, since tanning beds were so popular at one point (the law has changed now though), and people were really retarded about their use.

Sure, lying in a small-enclosed space whilst ultra-violet light is blasted at you might darken your skin, but how on earth can it be worth it. You ****ing retards!

Their goalkeeper was their best player that game, everybody else was plain. Ranks are good and all but that does not determine the winner, sometimes the lesser team can win a game and/or the championship.

For example: the St. Louis Cardinals won the World Series with the least amount of wins in the regular season ever for a World Champion - 83 if memory serves me correct.

I could see a draw be feasible but I was expecting Italy to win. I was sad that they tied but I disagree that it was a huge upset. It takes a lot more than a tie of 1-1 to have me call it a huge upset. If Italy was leading 3-0 and New Zealand came back to draw the game then I would call that a huge upset. But a 1-1 draw, that's nothing.

Because it is a draw. It is an unfavourable outcome for Italy but they didn't lose the match nor did they win. They should've won, but they are still in the hunt. If they had lost that game then they would have been in trouble.

Look at all the great upset in World Cup history none of them are draws, though there are probably a few that a team should've won.

It would be silly to say, "Did you see that huge upset in the New Zealand vs. Italy match?"

"Nah, what was the score?"

"1-1"

"... (a tie is a huge upset???)"

I agree. It's not a hard thing. Maybe it should be, "check the vote directly above yours, if the number doesn't add up then you ****ed up".

heartless screwed up the score even more. I corrected from Rapsos post on.

We don't often get 'bitey' rain, but quite often it rains non-stop for several days. There's also often strong winds that render umbrellas or even hooded coats useless.

At least you have beaches . Our beaches tend to be smaller than a privately owned segment of a beach!

Haha, looks like the Internet is influencing your grammar skillz.

Oh, the bright light-y background? =3 I think that part is under the Controls section when you customize your profile, so just add in a picture there (via an album) and you should have something not monochromatic.
