 GO UKRAINE!!!

It's so good that Russian team didn't make it to the World Cup finals! No national infamy again as in 2002 when Japanese team made a second Tsushima for our laming "footbol players"...

Go Ukraine! Oleg Blokhin as a coach should revenge for a 1986 USSR disaster with Belgium!

Football players don't wear pads to protect themselves, they wear them to protect the poor son of a ***** they're about to plaster.

But here's a simple test you can run.  Have a rugby player tackle you and then get up.  Next, have a football linebacker, say someone like Ray Lewis or Rodney Harrison hit you and see if you can get up afterwards.

Ray Lewis tanked a few years ago with the rest of that team.   Rugby players don't wear helmets, shoulder pads, hip pads.   You killed your attempt with your own answer.

Russian national soccer team looks like they play rugby. They pass the ball only backwards. Always.!!!

They wouldn't have to tackle him, I doubt he could run half the length of the field without stopping for a break. Remember lazs, rugby doesn't stop after every 5 seconds of play for a breather :)

However, there are some forwards from South Africa, Tonga, Fiji, and Samoa with stats like that who get brought down just as easily.

The majority of America is unenlightened.  Of course they're not going to enjoy, appreciate, or even understand the World Cup.

And of course, the majority of America will think that American football players are the best athletes on the planet.

:)  Thankfully, I'm not in that majority!

Guy at work said soccer is boring.  They take the ball down to one end of the field, lose it, then the other team takes the ball down to the other end of the fiend, loses it, and the cycle repeats.  The funny thing about his commentary is his second favorite sport to watch is hockey.  Hmm, team takes the puck down the ice, loses it, the other team takes the puck down the ice and loses it...

Hang, I am half-Russian half-Ukrainian. I hate to see Ukrainian politicians building an anti-Russian alliance and paricipating in NATO maneuvers (thank god - NATO soldiers got kicked out of Crimea by protesting citizens). Half of my family lives in Western Ukraine, provincial city of Chernovtsy, former Austro-Hungary and Romania.

But I'd like to see our brothers kicking some ass, especially with Oleg Blokhin as a coach, a great football player of the Soviet era.

My teams:

1) Ukraine
2) Australia (my Mother lives there)
3) Serbia-Crna Gora (another brother Slavonic nation)
4) Czech Republic (brother-Slavs too)
5) Poland (same thing)
6) US or any other non-football nation that may show courage and beat major teams.

Ukraine is simply my country, that's all.
