paraguay likes suvlakia for breakfast

that was sure terrible good chickn suvlakia i ate when i watched slovakia lose to paraguay (a bit garlicky but good)

kiwis like cold pizza

italy could have used 2 minutes in the microwave, they played like soggy slices of last nigth's pizza left in the box with some beer spilled on it and all the olives pick off

bring it on: suvlakia for breakfast

seriously, why name a whole country after a snack from another country? especially when your country is the result of a country splitting up in the first place: nobody should be surprised if in a few years this thing splits into pieces again. chicken suvlakia vs lamb, beef, pork, shrimp and veggie suvlakia (and tofu lakia)

hey, maybe you've seen my cbc blog http://www.cbc.ca/sports/soccer/fifaworldcup/superfans/
if you go there you'll see that they fix all my spelling, capitalizations, grammers, puntuation and make more eloquent sounding that an english third languager might be. if they do that for politicians and celbreties too we're in big trouble

i plan to get up early, wath the game, go back to bed and wait for father's day breakfast in bed, cool

paraguay needs a taller goalie

they have taller players than that, but they're mennonite farm boys that could easily be on the team, but it's soya harvest or peanut planting, or calving season

plus the goalie is allowed to wear long pants (the beard and suspenders and hat might draw some attention)

for now we'll try thicker insoles and longer cleats (and even bigger gloves)

watsa matter for you Pepe?

that was terreble good fun watching that pepe (italy's best bald player, almost as tall as me) being so mad until italy tied up the game

it looked cold and rainy

hey where can i buy a vuvuzella? those african plastic horns, i would blow that horn all day

next two games should be easy:

new zealand, still has a queen (even a british flag inside it's on flag, the only thing worse would be to put your flag iside another countries flag)

slovenia at least is his own dog independent sinse 1993? maybe woohoo!!! the will celebrebrate their sweet 16 soon

call me when the knock out round starts, we'll be there

i'll wear my jersey to work at the farmacy

How to be a fantastico fanatico and why is paraguay better than italy

it is all terrible exiting waiting for this copa to be started
if you are wandering why don't use the capital letters--it is because the imperialism from the capitalist, it has to be opposed by all ways possible this is my part

people tell me they don't know enough about soccer to interested in the world cup, but no everybody can be a fanatico
here is how to be a fantastico fanatico:
1. choose a country, if your big country did not even qualify, pick a smaller one that knows how to play soccer and has it's own independence day and a flag that is more than 50 years old (sorry canadian maple leaf flag, why would they copy a flag from a terrible hockey team?)

2.be angry to anyone who chose another country from you


that's all it; you think those canuck fan know something from hockey? is the goalie luongo it think is his name the capitan? paraguay national team for many years had a goalie chilavert or something like that him called. he always tried to score a goal, i don't think luongo ever try that

so the first game for paraguay will be against italy:
many people maybe think italy is better than paraguay
here is why paraguay is better:

1. paraguay has nicer flag, just compare, blue is better than green on a flag, they both have red and white, but the third colour paraguay wins

2.spanish is a better language than italian and roman (more people speak guarani than latin)

3.italy loses in war everytime i think (or other countries have to help them) paraguay always fights alone, sometimes even agains three countries all together (countries are always jealous of paraguay) and paraguay defeated bolivia in la guerra del chaco war (don't believe bolivians history, oh are bolivia in la copa? i didn't think so, too bad amigo)

4. italian cars are not reliable, paraguay doesn't make cars but was the first country in south america to have a train (i just started to work again, it burns wood)

5. paraguay is 100% soccer. italy also does tennis and bicycling, so they are not focused on soccer

6. the italian soccer shirt is blue, why? they wish they had blue in their flag. again they are jealous


p.s. i need all the people who read this to leave comentrios in el bloggo, a bloggo sin comentario is not a bloggo, is true

El superfan mas fanatico del mundo (the most fanatic superfan in the world)

when i was a boy in primary school in paraguay we lived in the countryside along one of two paved roads (aside from paved and cobblestoned streets in asuncion). We lived on a ranch across the road from our 3 room school. it was attended by the kids from 2 nearby villages and the mostly mennonite (german speaking immigrants from canada and ussr).

we played soccer every chance we had: before school and every recess (even even played a quick game during a short 5 minute break between classes)

the teams were predetermined: we played according to our alegiances, in the '70s everyone cheered for olympia or cerro porteno.

so we played for our favorite teams, but some of the weaker players had to play for their rival to even out the numbers (very demoralizing).

we would often insult each other by trash talking the other guy's team. i once even say painted little clay statues of soccer players in full uniform posed in a crouch defecating on the ground (the perfect insulting gift)

like every male in any country (other than canada or usa) i clain great natural talent near greatness in this sport

at the age of 12 i moved to canada, where my sport was ignored

i went to a high school that only recognized basketball as a sport

basketball players were worshipped everyone else didn't even exist

now i seldom play or watch soccer

but when the world cup rolls around

and paraguay qualifies more ofen than not

i bring out my patriotism for my birth country (which by the way will celebrate its bicentenial in 2011, i was shocked to learn when i came to canada that a country vastly larger and populous would still be ruled by a far away monarchy--canada has the same lady on almost every piece of currency, paraguay has soldiers and generals with swords and horses)

so i put on my paraguayan national team jersey, bake some chipa and brew myself some mate cocido and cheer for my old country

vencer or morir (victory or death)
