XFD @ the article. I've only read Algeria's entry, and I'm already on the ground laughing.

Also, I may be one of the rare black people who gives a damn about soccer. (yes, there are black people who think there are more sports than football and basketball. i know, strange) There's just something...intense about the game, that you don't get in other games. I think it may be because there aren't stops every five fucking seconds for something, and no commercial breaks (except at the half, which is perfectly fine with me). My only issue is that a game can end in a tie. Sorry, but ties just piss me off.
Knock-out stages in tournaments never tie.

Good to know. Makes sense too, since the knockout stage is win or go home, right?

Yep.

Wait, Sometimes knock-out stages are done in two matches, then ties do occur, but away goals are counted double in the event scores being tied goal-wise. This gives much more incentive to play offensively and thus prevents ties, usually. >_>
In competitions/group stages ties are pretty common. It basically leaves both teams fucked since they only get 1 point for a tie, but 3 for a win. Still better than the 0 points for a loss though...

Soccer is by far the most fun sport to play, however I hate watching it. >_>
Hockey though! Damn, that's a fun sport to watch!

Haha, I too don't like how the Brazilian players are called only by one name (usually silly nicknames)...

But it's just natural how we call for first names instead last/full names.

It sounds weird for everybody else though! >_>

I can tolerate soccer. But I only watch The World Cup and other huge tournaments.
