The Battle Bar, Our Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy

🙁 Uncool about Federer. He's like what, 28? He's playing like he's 38.

I don't think Federer cares anymore. He showed it at the French Open. Either that or he's passing his prime.

It's his stupid children. Everyone who has children suddenly gets vastly worse at whatever they do.

I'm worried for Galan.

De Rossi (sp) on the Italian team had an even worse, more blatant dive during their first Group Play match.

This wasn't a dive, but incidental contact. It didn't warrant any kind of card.

Look closely, before he trips over his own feet, his feet make contact with the defender.

The Netherlands are tough but I just can't bet against Brazil in World Cup.

Wow, Brazil have lost their minds.

Wow, what an embarrassing 2nd half. As I've been saying, this is the weakest Brazil squad in close to 20 years, they finally showed it.

2006.

They had a GREAT squad in 2006, pretty much the same team from 2002 championship. They just had the misfortune of going up against the greatest player of the past 30 years.
