WM 2010--Day Fourteen Recap


Day 14
WM 2010

Record—
Spread: 16-28
Straight up: 24-9-11

Two pages of rambling soul-searching on the wops are probably enough for one day. I’m content to leave the Italians alone. Basta! After threatening to beat the everlasting shit out of some reporters, Vladimir Weiss calmly dropped his son and made some other keen lineup changes. We’ll see more from the fine tactician in the Round of Sixteen. Does he actually own another suit? Twenty bucks says he’ll come out in that creepy pinstripe number for the fourth time in a row. Takers? 

The Japs are speeding along in fifth gear and show no signs of hitting the brakes. They appear unstoppable! If only there was some lame and overused metaphor that would aptly link the play of the team to recent headlines involving a private firm closely identified with the country. Hmmmmmm……..


That Japanese game hit me like a dynamite roll. So many lingering tastes to savor. Empress Michiko (the porcelain princess) made it! Two absolute sizzling strikes off set pieces from Honda and Endu, followed by slow-mo close ups of the goal-scores letting out a bushido yell. God knows what they were saying (“Banzai!” and “Hibachi” for all I know). I again issue an emergency appeal for Japanese play-by-play highlights. I know all of those libidinous and exotic Japanese ladies would never be interested in a broke gaijin such as myself LL Yet again, it’s “Snow Falling on Peter” LL  A guy can dream, can’t he? It worked for Tom Cruise! What? It didn’t? Oh well. Off to some Hentai sites, then.

FIFA has lifted the Netherlands ban and the Dutch girls are back with vengeance! Incredible execution by the “Luscious Orange.” (Yes, that was the best I could come up with)  A 26-girl day! Imagine what they could have done had it not been for the vile-tasting Bavaria Beer. A most improbable comeback for my daffy semi-Deutsch sisters. Incidentally, were I fortunate enough to be in the stands and pumped up with liquid courage, I would go with the following pick-up line: “Hey, I’m looking for a girl with orange skin. Any idea where I can find one?”

As pertaining to the Danes, looks like all the come-hither cuties already caught a flight back to Copenhagen. Their team is right behind them. Starting to wonder if the Japanese were ever going to show up, but in the end they did not disappoint. Yes, those girls in the bowling pin costumes count. I’m a kinky bastard J

Two of the top five are inactive. You can wow us all with your homegrown temptresses, but that is not enough if your team doesn’t give us a chance to see them! Cannot have unclean thoughts about women if they aren’t in front of me! Well, I can, but let’s just assume my imagination is depleted.
