So the Fifa world cup is FINALLY over. Life can go back to normal. No more fighting for the channel to be put on anything but ESPN. No more watching sexy men take out their shirts at the end of the match (remember Figo & Zidane? oohh). No more Christiano, sigh.
The newspapers called yesterday “Super Sports Sunday” and I don’t blame them. Federer was all smiles last night at Wimbeldon though Nadal played unbelievably second set onwards. Think Nadal is the cuter of the two but was supporting Feds anyway (esp after Paris) so was happy with the outcome. And the jacket ![]()
And what can one say about the FIFA world cup final… that Shakira knows to shake her butt? Undoubtedly. That Zidane knows to headbutt?
#&^*$ #*&^*$#^*^$ @#$*^@^@$

I somehow just knew they’d not score anymore… I knew it’d come to penatly kicks. I knew the Buffon would perform.
But I did not know the idiot ass Zidane would chose to headbutt his way out of the finals. WHAT IN GOD’S EARTH WAS THE ASS THINKING????
Guess he wasn’t thinking. So the Italians are probably still rejoicing. And deservedly so. Good going.
And les blues, please teach yer boys a thing or two in anger management.
Incidentally, for all my regulars, my net is STILL not up. Don’t even Ask. Decided to get into a cyber cafe & reply to all your comments though, am blog cold-turkeying. Will hopefully swing around your places soon. Till then, take care!

Finally she’s back!
Go Azzuris go! I’m sooooo happy



I hear Zidane’s tryin out for the WWE since he’s gotta retire from football…
Just thought he could get a lil practice in, and you guys berate him for that! Shame.
Yet to see Krrish (which I hear is Krrap) and Superman… plannin to watch the latter atleast.

Jus tht of something…
perhaps Materazzi asked Zidane “Hum chloromint kyu khaate hai…”
Fair enough

Feel sad for Zidane…didnt need to screw it up when he was going so good! Well lifes like that!
BTW that was a good one Dev…hahaha…sure seems like a logical explanation!!
July 11th, 2006 at 3:20 am
It seems Materazzi used a racial slur to instigate Zidane, as you know Zidane is an Arab Muslim. This what the french players told the media

I think they shud do away with the concept of penalty shoot out for the champioship match….and keep on increasing extra time
some inches….that is what it boiled down…the difference between the looser and winner…between agony and ecstasy….years of hard work, dreams and sacrifices…all wasted juss coz Trezeguet penalty was off the mark by “inch or two”….but then who said “life is fair”
…as far as zizou is concerned….it juss proved that we all are humans…even those who have been christened ‘God’
July 11th, 2006 at 4:08 pm
and he is undoubtebly one of the greatest football player….one mistake (however foolish , illogical it was) doesnt make him “ass”
July 11th, 2006 at 10:25 pm
U home safe i hope?
July 12th, 2006 at 12:15 am
Hey Melody,hope you are fine.
July 12th, 2006 at 1:01 am
Hey Mel…
Hope u doin fine… hope to hear from u soon….
July 12th, 2006 at 9:52 am
I think some very very personal comment might have made Zidane loose his control and ya he is undoubtebly one of the greatest football player and FYI the *ass* ahmm…. got the Golden Ball for FIFA 2006
July 12th, 2006 at 11:30 am
I hope everyone’s safe…

@ Dev: Not really back - am using a dial up connection now, lol. Am trying to get Wi-Fi in my house, let’s see… thx for the enthu welcome back though
And totally lol to Zizou..
@ Sherriff: Hey sorry if I offended you by calling Zizou an Ass. He is actually one of my fav footy plaers, which perhaps made me all the more angry… Still I guess we can never really understand the pressure he was under at that moment and what Matzy said to make him react the way he did.
@ Alex, Reshma, Dev, Van: Thank you, am safe and sound as are my loved ones. Trust you all are too. Haven written something about the blasts in the post following this one.
@ Ravi: Yeah I know he got the Golden Ball, was happy for that at least!

@ Jayanth: Wasn’t doubting his talent - just his anger mgmt skills.
