When I think of Tigers and the Japanese baseball team.....only thing that comes to mind is that guy in Densha Otoko who was wearing that baseball shirt :sweat:

I'm not even sure if thats the same team uniform he wearing. Gomen.

Holland just beat Serbia& Montenegro 1-0, it wasn't too convinving but at least they scored a decent goal. And good to see Robben in form again. (though he's too selfish..)

yes, the guy in Densha Otoko is a fan of Hanshin Tigers and always wears Tiger's shirt.
Hanshin Tigers now is the one of 2 most popular baseball team in Japan. (dunno if they're more popular than Yomiuri Giants. IMO, Yomiuri Giants = Japan's NY Yankees)

seriously....they scored 2 goals in five minutes at the end of the second half.....

The first half was decent and fun to watch though. But the players from Iran were all "empty" after 50mins. shame.

yeah, portugal won 1 : 0 against angola. they were strong in the first 5 minutes but after that, they look like as if they were out of gas. and bad start again for c.ronaldo. :grumble:

USA !!! I don't even know they have a football team. :hehe:

Even though I'm American, I'm not very patriotic. America makes me angry when they're competing in like Olympics and stuff.... so I hope they lose. >_<

Its going to be a hard match for USA, the Czech have a good midfield and they are good in playing fast attacking football. Wonder if USA is going to survive tonite.

Japan V Australia now! Woo Go JAPAN!!

they ate sh*t in the last 8 minutes of official time.....australia scored THREE goals in 10 minutes....props to the Aussies...

ARGGG! Japan lost, mother@$#&$# :banghead: :goddammit:
I think Japan needs to take more chances on the ball. They hestitate to much...
Next they'll face Croatia, it would take a big MIRACLE for them to even advance to the next round.
