So people, any unforgettable moments for the Germans, French, Brasilians, Italians or English?

Every time we win the World Cup of course. Oh, I'm sorry, you can't relate.

though as an American not qualified to comment on things footy, is it me or does it look like maybe these guys let it happen just so they could get to the mens room?

They were just checking if they have any cojones.

Ok, the best ever is:

When we won the World Cup again . . . . I believe it was against Holland . . . .

Itz sadden me to know that this will be Dennis Bergkamp last EPL season. I juz cant find some1 who is as articulate and refine as him in scoring goals or creating opportunities. He is a rare jewel that is irreplaceable. Remember his goal agnst Argentina '98 or the goal of the season agnst Newcastle??? Magnificant arent they???

Thanks for making football such a beautiful game Dennis!!

Who u think will be the dark horse team this time rd???

First game for Mexico is midnight in Singapore, anyone know which would be a good Pub to watch games??

Bearhug, I can only subscribe a 1000% to your words on Dennis Bergkamp...

Eric

And with 10 mins to go in the Champions League Final, Dennis comes on and scores the winner! What a fitting end that would be!!

Eric, Thanks for the note it's good to have the spirits of our team raised. I guess we will make it past the first round and I hope we get to win at least one more!! Not sure we can do the same as on the sub-17.

I always root for the "Naranja Mecánica" (Orange Machine - not sure but that's how we call Netherlands in Mexico

) when Mexico is not around. I was a huge fan of Hans VanBreukelen (again pardon my writting!!) that goalkeeper of some time ago.

Well, if you are watching some games around let me know where you will be and you won't miss me with my Mexico's soccer shirt!!

Brought a couple and gave them away as gifts...I promise I will get you one when I get to go back to Mexico. I do have the "ay ay ay amor" song you used to have as a signature some time ago if you want

It would be good to see Mexico games having Margarita or just some good tequila...only decent place for Margaritas so far was Cafe Iguana!!

It would be even beter to see the Mexican team win for a change. Seriously, the stage is set to give a good showing - - - if you don't lose against the US AGAIN!!! Que lastime, hombre - por favor no mas!
