    This morning was the draw for the first round of next years World Cup.

    Our group to play each other is:

    England

    Argentina

    Nigeria

    Sweden.

    Argentina are currently rated Number 1 in the world, Nigeria are number 1 in Africa, Sweden is - well wwhen did we last beat Sweden?

    Oh well.

    Outnfree,

    Personally, I would rather we lost The Falklands than lose to Argentina in the World Cup!

    Sorry about that Englishman. Can the U.S.A. trade? We would love to go down in flames.

    How appropriate that the world be caught up in a trivial soccer game while the nation of Argentina totters on the brink of collapse. There's no doubt about it, apostate JW's have got to be the dumbest creatures on the face of the earth. LOL / You Know

    So are you saying that we must live in a constant state of dread and ignore the lighter side of life?

    During the war in Kosovo, many Kosovans commented on the fact that they could be shelled by day and yet, every evening, they would sit around a camp fire and enjoy the communal cameraderie. If there was a bowl of hot potato broth, then so much the better. You however, seem to be advocating a kind of permanently dour hypothetical existence.

    Gambler,

    There are 92 professional football teams in England. I have, over the years, seen 91 of them in action. During over 440 games I have seen crowd violence once. Don't fall for media propoganda, leave that to the WTBTS.

    Gambler,
    Don't forget the blood and urine bombs. stadiums collapsing, and the penis biting. The penis biting I posted earlier this week. I will never understand soccer, but some people love it.
