Mulling over LEE LOFASO to STEVE ASHER 29 Jun 2006

G'day Lee,

>SA>Jihadist site: Soccer is against Islam

>SA>UK jihadists attack 'religion of soccer,' warn Muslims against taking
>SA>part in 'colonial crusader scheme'

>LL>I think the USA coach wanted to behead the German referee after
>LL>losing the game to Ghana...

>SA>The referee (correct title noted) may have been blowing a Whistle of
>SA>Mass something or other...

>LL>Australia almost pulled off a big upset against Italy today.  Maybe
>LL>next time around the USA and Australia will face off in the finals.
>LL>And that would be a first.  In South Africa.  :)

SA>It would be good to see Oz defeat the USA 3-nil :)

 LL> Once upon a time Oz did manage to win the America's Cup.

Yes, I do remember that day (night, here) in 1983.

 LL> And if they could do it in yachting, maybe they can do it
 LL> in soccer.

I'm sure it could happen, & it would be a sellout crowd wherever it
was played.

 LL>   Of course, Americans are more used to playing
 LL> a far different brand of football.  :)

The brand where they pack-rape the ball (or each other), but rarely
manage to kick the thing? :)

Cheers, Steve..
