FORZA ITALIA!
It wasn't pretty but it was a win!

I remember being on St. Clair in 1982, I had my motorcycle decked out with flags, I screamed until it hurt what an experience!
Fast forward 24 years.......I watched the game at a local pub with some good friends, came home and had a nap!
The tradition continued though as my daughter came back from Toronto and told me all about the wild time she had on the streets of St. Clair with all the crazy Italians, I smiled , life is good...

Won't be the same.....

There's some talk of creating a rule about "Diving".
The theatrical face-making & pain-faking routine of some players/teams is being frowned upon by many people. I'm not saying that the Italian team held top honours for their performances, just that they were exceptionally talented at the "Diving" procedure. So much so that it seemed that the camera operators were holding the view (many close-ups) of the facial expressions of an "injured" player who, incredibly enough, was a decendant of the mighty Roman Empire.
"Caught on film" holds another whole new meaning now that I've watched World Cup Soccer. Hopefully their grandchildren don't see what I saw and react the same way.
OK, rant over.
AL.
P.S. ..... Nothing personal Mr. Pappone, Buddy!

In what other sport can you win the covetted "Cup" for beating your oponents, an Academy Award for acting and a Gold Medal for Diving!!!

The odd part is that it works!? They carry you off the field in a stretcher and your back playng 15 seconds later? Teams will use whatever works to win. If the ref's keep buying it, the players will continue to do. It would be a better game if they did with out the diving.
Which leaves us with good old fashioned talent and name calling!!
