thats like saying you HAVE to support ur local NFL team?Vick said:
im from the philly area and i dont like the eagles...my teams are the ravens and the colts (yes, that may seem bandwagonish now but take my word for it that they been one of my favorite teams to watch for years)
Close... Now if you have a legitimate reason for it, I'm cool... Something along the lines of2nyce said:
1) First team you ever watched
2) By affiliation, your whole family is a fan of that team
3) Etc
and you are a fan of the Colts and the Ravens, that's like being a fan of the Yankees and Red Sox... If you were born before 1984, I could see it happening... But after 1984, it makes no sense at all...

well nah i mean my justification for it is...Vick said:
1) my rents came from india, just as many of our parents, and never really had a team to influence upon me
2) i hated watchin sports for the longest time cuz when i was little i would jus play them (wrestled/football/soccer)
3) finally midway thru highschool i realized that im never gonna make it in society without keepin up to date wit this or id look like a straight idiot...so i started watchin n judged each team fairly
4) i picked my favorite(s) by choosin who i enjoy watchinm, who puts on a show, and who i can realistically actually make a trip to go check out a game sometime...and i went thru steelers, ravens, colts...and then steelers lost my interest.
5) i DO realize these are rivals and shit but ay it jus makes that rival game that much more excitin for me. and it might not make sense now, but one day ill be able to pick a legit favorite team and then continue that influence to my kids, ya know
joinin the bandwagon would be me supportin philly when i dont care about them, dont care to learn about them, and will never care until they let go of fuckin bitchass mcnabb...i been watchin the game long enough to know that if philly wants to succeed they needa let go of that franchise QB...shit, personally i think they shoulda kept vick (no pun intended towards ya, haha) and utilized him. yeah the dudes been in jail n shit but they can condition him n work out the kinks.
world cup though, argentina's my team cuz i actually WAS influenced to support them by family n that was the first team i started watchin.
Deutscher Mannschaftttt wir fahren nach Südafrikaaa, Deutschland vorrr, noch ein torrrr, falala lala laaaa

@Argentina:: Your coach is a fuckin joke. MAradona was a great player obvi, but not everyone is cut out to coach. Don't forget Argentina's shitty record over the qualification campaign, Brazil is still the team to beat out of South America.
@France:: LOL. You needed an illegal handball from Thierry Henry to score against IRELAND to win your lowly playoff to barely qualify for this cup. Only reason I used to respect France was cuz of Zidane, and still, I'm obvi a Ribery fan watching him play for Bayern these years, but Henry doesn't deserve shit. France got their asses handed to them in Euro2008, and they have been gettin their asses handed to them in qualification. For Europe, they do not deserve to be in this cup, Russia deserves to be in this cup.
@England:: Good camp. Well rounded team right now, Rooney is disgusting right now, and their midfield is CLASS! Lampard, Gerard, Beckham, these names always deliver, no hype needed. Im excited to see them actually, and quite frankly, I would prefer if they win their group and USA finish in second place because they are the cross group for Germany, and that means that USA would play Germany in first knockout round, and well,
Auf Wiedersehen jaaaaa ;D
@Portugal:: Same as France in that the team is a joke. I would say They are even weaker than France, Cristiano is basically a one man show for them. And I LOVE hating on Portugal cuz Schweinsteiger has had their number for a while now hah in assists AND goals, and Petit is always the one gettin clowned on by Schweiny bahaha
see on youtube:: 'Schweinsteiger Show', and 'Portugal Germany Q1'
I hope Portugal play us again. But they'll be lucky to get out of the Death Group this year. Brazil will take that group.
Sleeper Cell::: IVORY COAST. Drogba.
Strongest, most complete teams who are favourites:: Germany, Netherlands, Spain, England. Sorry Brazil. get your act together.
EDIT :: For Imran; Italy can SMD hah. They aint defending jackdiggity. They shud get The Situation on attack alongside their new prized Jersey boy Guiseppe Rossi who actually is damned good hah god knows they only have a defense.
@Brazil: Confederation Curse. [No team who has won the Confederations Cup has won the World Cup the following year] suck on that Avni
anyone else goin to South Africa besides myself and Dheerja?

www.myp2p.eu2nyce said:
^^ this is the best overall live streaming site. click on live sports, then live football, and all the worlds games will show up. some of the links will require certain media players, ie Sopcast (which i have installed), and u can see the mode of display for each link, itll say like Sopcast, or TVAnts, or etc. if it says Media Player, that will open up in ur browser, as a windows media player stream., the qualities vary but u can see the quality and speed next to each link. dont be discouraged by the normal 2star ratings on each link, 2 star ratings are normal and they all work hah
i recommend sopcast, i jsut find sopcast links thru myp2p.eu
i also like how u can tell what language the commentary is going to be in for myp2p.eu links, cuz it shows the host channel next to the link. i obvi look for german or english, but sometimes endup watchin a match in like romanian or polish hah
for browser links..
www.justin.tv.
this guy carries everythign known to man, alot of the links from www.livefooty.doctor-serve.com are from justin too. he has some proper feeds but sometimes they go dead.
www.iraqgoals.net
also pretty good for browser viewing of matches.
also.. and this is huge i duno how many people have this..
www.tenchistv.com
they have this toolbar (firefox/iexplorer) that basically has live tv streaming for channels in many countries, obvi usa being one of them. canada's tv channels arent listed (sorry guys) but regardless, forget the tv, theres a movie seciton and a sports section and any major sporting event going on, it will have a link to in the sports dropdown menu. i recommend installign it, check it out.
ill let u know if i find any more, but thats basically wat i use, i never had to look further.
occasionally, espn360.com will show some games, so periodically check in on that too for upcoming games, i shud prob check on there too rightnow
regards,
go germany
TZ
EDIT:: if you do need a way to view highlights n goals from games you miss, i recommend www.tvgolo.com, ou can search by league, tournament, country, etc. pretty convenient.

Italy is old but you can't talk about the World Cup without em. Plus how are you gonna exclude the OG fistpumpers?
