I don't think you catch my drift. Smalk talk is classless, especially BEFORE a game. i don't do it, there's no point, the players decide the game. And when an opposing fan does it before a game and their team loses in embarassing fashion they deserve to have their face stuffed in it.
See, but I don't think you understand me either. I'm a Sweden fan. Get that? A Sweden fan. If I don't say anything positive before the game, I will never ever ever get to, apparently. Whoa whoa whoa. You're saying... the players decide the game? You're saying that I've been wasting my time, with all the incantations and prayers and voodoo and lucky-jersey-wearing and karmic sacrifices and always putting my left shoe on first? You're saying whether I trash talk before a game or not makes no difference whatsoever to the outcome? Now you're talkin' crazy talk. Easy there. Yup. I take my chances, and generally get what I deserve. Go ahead, take a few more swats. The universe is infinite and patient, and will circle around again. Canada will get theirs, in due course.
4-2 Canada! hmm, @ Algarve they play every other day, so that can't be it. And Canada's also a cold country and also played in the heat, so that can't be it either. Nope. Canada's just more superior. Exactly.
It cannot be. I've seen Canada play. They are usually useless. Some kind of cosmic negative forcefield must have taken hold of the Sweden players. Or perhaps the coaching was bad. Or perhaps Sweden was just even more useless than Canada, perish the though.
Yes, it's all compelling and fascinating, isn't it? See, you can't help yourself, you can't stay away, no matter what you say.
I will not go so far as to say that auger9 is right about Canada in general, because that would hurt too much-- and history is on our side-- but clearly, on that particularly dark day, Sweden won the "who can stink up the field worse" contest. Hooper scores twice in the first 20'? 2 goals against scored in 58'-59'? 4 goals total? What the heck was the defense doing out there, catching up on their suntans? There's no excuse. That's just terrible. My "Svensk försvar" poster is on notice. The only good thing I see, and this is really pushing the definition of "good", is that when the scores were 2-0 and 4-1, they didn't just give up trying to score.
Q: What's the difference between a swedish woman and refridgerator? A: The fridge doesn't fart when you pull your meat out... Ah, that's crass but you SO deserve it
