As most of you should know 20 minutes ago Spain took the World Cup for the first time in history... but as most of you should know... I live in Germany (so I don't really give a crap about Spain winning... ). 4 years ago Germany played Italy in the semi-finals (who ended up taking the whole she-bang) to only lose and take third place.That was a sad sad sad day. Four years later Germany played Spain in the semi-finals (who ended up taking the whole she-bang) to only lose and take third place. Dejavu much? Anyway, lets just say that there are two world events that rule my life every four years: the Olympics and of course the World Cup.
2010 South Africa FIFA World Cup Favorite Moment: Slamming Argentina 4-0 when most thought we couldn't even beat them (quarter-finals)
2010 South Africa FIFA World Cup Least Favorite Moment: Losing to Spain 0-1 when that stupid Octopus predicted it (semi-finals)
So the kids start out the FIFA season a couple months before with a Sticker book with spaces for every player of every team... naturally I had to get one, but its a pretty expensive investment... several hundred stickers that have to be bought...
Lennart before we left for preschool expressing his love for German football.

The OLYMPIA STADIUM... where we all gathered to watch Argentina vs. Germany, it was an awesome game, and we sang and drank beer (well the Germans did at least) and celebrated.
Lederhosen MAN!
