Allez les Bleus!


I am one of those who would like to see an African team winning the World Cup someday. But an African team boasting some African nation's flag.

Anyways, the Blues won, and I am happy. The Whites lost (well, yes, yes, the workers, the players, were all black, but the bosses were all white, and they dressed in white). In any case, time to celebrate for all foreigners in France.

It was one year ago, on July 6th when Paris didn't win the 2012 olympics and I said that if the French cannot behave themselves when they win, we cannot let them win. Fortunately, they are so bad for most sports, intellectual activities, arts and any other human activity that we, spectators of their tragic history, only have to sit back and enjoy watching them fail again and again.

Did you see the Italy Vs France (Africa?) match? The French got to the final dragged by a series of oversympathetic referees and some strikes of good luck. When the moment of truth came, and failure, eternal companion of French society, hit them, the French did what they can do best: Nagging and in some extreme case, turn violent (Zidane headbutting Materazzi, the Italian guy who scored the only great goal of the match).

The French explained the outcome of the match as the result of a biased referee and concluded that the result was unfair since they had proved better (can the French be better than anyone at anything!?!?!?).

Firstly, the Italians played much better. Their brave defence repelled any single French try to score. Proof: The only goal during the match was shot by the Italians. The French only scored a penalty.

Secondly, Zidane's headbutt did deserve the Red card and I would even demand the French Football Federation to be fined. We cannot afford that overpaid players take advantage of overbroadcasted events like this match to promote stupid violence.

Thirdly, it is sad that a match has to be resolved in a set of penalties, but as the Italians were superior during the match, they also proved superior firing the penalties and did not fail any.

Today the BBC website presented us a good list of newsclips about the French reaction to this new failure. Some of the takeaways:

1. About Zidane's sending off, the French coach said: "Something must have happened but I don't know what. I don't think he decided out of the blue to headbutt him, that he wanted to leave the pitch, something must have happened". What a jerk! Basically, if your neighbour is stabbed in the metro, it's his fault!. This principle is confirmed by some other jerk playing with the French: "I think Materazzi said something very bad to him for him to react like that".

2. Jacques Chirac, yes that brilliant politician and would be prison inmate, came to justify violence on a football field by saying: "I don't know what happened, why Zidane was punished. But I would like to express all the respect that I have for a man who represents at the same time all the most beautiful values of sport, the greatest human qualities one can imagine, and who has honoured French sport and, simply, France". If he "doesn't know", he could better shut up. Isn't this representative of the mental capability of the French brain?

3. The French are against using technology in football (basically, allowing referees to view video taping before punishing)... which explains why Zidane attacked the Italian idol Materazzi when the referee was looking something else.

Check out the following 3 selected BBC articles for more details:

Can the French behave like normal people? Normal people, sometimes, win.

Dude, you are finaly back. Man you are sooo right with this post. Stupids Frenchies-Wannabes lost the CUP cuz they played as SHIT!!! that simple dude.

The Frenchie team (African Team) is obviously given to the ON-SITE consultants, because the Africans were part of the normal Offshore outsourcing team in African soccer teams. Indeed, Frenchies are bad in all aspects, for this reason is not a big surprise they lost the Cup. A big manager leader's ship failure: they should have given the outsourcing to the best in this field- UK, Brazil,Argentina,Spain or Italy hehehehehe

Completely normal actitude for a little Frenchi-Wannabie TO BLAME all for the bad results!!! Well, we have proved we can not help them to take full responsability for their own failures and We just have to walk over these buch of suckers!!! leading their companies, leading their economy of these Paris full of Zizus of SHIT!!!!

Hey I have a doubt... As we could see most of Frenchies players (96%) are black... do you think they are target of the normal Frenchi racist behavior???

Well, got to kick some Frenchies asses here at work!!
Cheers!!!

Brighton Rules!!!!!

ps. Zidan you can kiss my ass!!!!

Are you still living in France?

Whichever country you live in, please bear in mind one thing: think before opening your mouth.

I agree partially with what you say about Zidane (although legally he should not be red carded) but your lack of objectivity spoils tremendously your comment.

I do not know why you have such anger towards France but this criticism seems to be an overreaction and will not bring you any good.

I do not know much about football but I heard a majority of specialists in this field saying that Italy only dominated the 1st half of the game ie 45 min. The game lasted 120 min. However, I still think they deserved to win because they did. I am not looking for any justification to explain France's defeat. They actually did very well considering what was expected from them.

Anyway, the World Cup has ended and you can come back to your sad little life of criticism. Do not bother to reply, I will not come back to this blog again.

Thank you for reading me.

Once again, the world was amazed by the elegance (head butt) of France losing the World Cup.

Why this happened? Visit my blog for analysis.

http://manyyearsinthemerde.blogspot.com

And celebrate this new French defeat!
-----------------------------------
You left this comment on my blog -
for starters, I think you've overlooked a major point - French is one of my nationalities, why would I rejoice in their defeat?
Secondly, my comments field isn't the trading post, it's the second time you've come advertising, once more and I'd call it spamming.

You're right once again Uranus !!
I too wondered how much the referees were bribed to let france pass up to the WC final despite their shitty and lousy game ! They shouldn't have made it out the first round in the first place ... the only good thing about it though, is that it has allowed the whole world to really see what french people are like : violent assaulters to fellow players without any reason !! Letting guys like that play football is just a shame for the game, french just can't understand nor respect any rules !!
Let's get rid of that bunch of incompetent overboasting violent morons !

Kill the french ! Free the world !!

Isn't it funny? None of the French wannabes have given their opinion on the subject I proposed to talk about: France's failure at the World Cup. They just try to give me a headbutt!

Uranus,

Most don't want to take part because
there's really not much to talk about. There's a winner and a loser, and this has nothing to do with politics, as you so desperately seem to want to make of it. Continued bashing isn't necessary; it's boring. France lost. Period.

1. If my neighbor got stabbed on the metro because he said something derogatory about someone's mother or family, so be it. I can understand that emotional defense.

2. Chirac didn't know. Neither do you, but you seem to have plenty of bias to spew regardless.

3. It sounds like you didn't see the action. First, Mat. was holding Zidane's shirt. Zidane walked away from him. Mat followed him closely, his mouth continually moving. Zidane kept walking ahead and ignored him. Finally, Zidane turned around and came the headbutt.

Finally, you hate France with such a passion, yet you choose to live here. This is purely hypocritical.

And lastly, please stop leaving canned messages on my blog. I've read the same message in at least 10 others.

If some of you are wondering why Uranus is still living in France, have a closer look at his blog. It's poor English and it includes a few mistakes a native speaker would not make. I bet he is French, and this whole blog is a joke. Also, his ideas sound a little too simplistic to be really taken seriously. Anyway, he's probably not a native speaker of English. I feel bad for Dutch Papa though, who buys and supports this whole thing. Unless Dutch papa is a joke too...

It's not the French who oppose the usage of the video by football referees, but the International Board representing all the football national federations. This board counts 8 members, among which 4 are necessarily anglo-saxon (England, Scotland, Irish, Welsh), the 4 others representing all other world federations.
Seldom any French there.

Do your homework.

Venus,
I am sorry for making you believe that I am a FIFA pundit, which I am not.

I was refering to the attitude of French coach (the link to the BBC news is on this blog) and most French people I have talked to.

Observing French losing is quite entertaining. They only question the rules when they lose. Fortunately they lose quite often (Paris 2012, Champions League, World Cup), so entertaiment is assured.

This post is non-sensical hatred from beginning to end. If we're sticking to soccer arguments, as you're pretending to do, let me remind you that France happened to make it to two out of the last three world cup finals, one of which they won. Not so bad for losers, is it? In fact, only one other country can claim as much (Brazil). Besides, I haven't heard anyone complaining about the rules or about Zidane being shown the red card. All people are trying to do is understand and explain what happened. Heard of free speach? One should think, so given the overtly bashing use you've been making of it.

omigod, Mr. Andy!!! You are a real racist and idiot!! Your comment speaks for yourself.

Like you, I have issues about the french (I'm an expat from Asia). But in no way would I have the right to say something like what you did.

Frankly, you guys, your bitterness is eating up on you. How many times did you have a cardiac arrest?? Take a breather, get out of France!!!

It is funny that racist French media, trying to accuse Italy, speculated with the possibility of a racist insult.

Finally, Zidane comfirmed that there was no racist motivation but just the kind of insult anyone has used many times (including Zidane) in our lives. Why could all-white French journalists think about some racist comment? The French have racism in their DNA, they maybe think that racism is a human constant, yet it is only a French tradition,

'Moderate' French media titled the news 'Another match won unfairly, Italian style'. What does 'Italian style' means here? Isn't this xenophobia? Doesn't it deserve a headbutt?
