All goals in that match are own goals... Looks like a sold match to me, with players who openly demonstrate who gets paid most!

Just posted this to the 'Grab Bag' thread, but this might be a more appropriate place for it...

Bored on a flight...? Why not lock yourself into the lavatory and pretend to be a classic Dutch painting?

I guess Mr. de Visscher just became a punchline. As in " Is Christian Eriksen likely to leave in the summer ? Does Jeffrey de Visscher poop in the woods ? "

Re: The New Vak 425 Pathetic Joke Corner
This is actually not a joke. It's real. Just happened to me, on the phone to the helpdesk of my internet service provider (UPC).
Helpdesk guy: "... Now press 'menu' and then go for option [blah-blah, this or that]."
- I don't have that option, I think...
"Right. Let me just check what type of media box you have... Ah, there you have it: you have a very old one. It's pretty ancient, three generations old. We have a much better box now. I'll send you one straight away."
- Okay...
"Hang on, there something else... Your type of subscription no longer exists. Your package of digital televison, digital phone and internet now includes a bunch of extra things and we gave it a new name. The new package is 5 euros/month cheaper than the old package you're still paying for."
- Cheaper? When did that happen?
"Let me see... In 2010."
- Pardon? UPC never informed me. You kept booking the old fee off of my bank account.
"That's correct, Sir. The news about the new packages was on http://www.upc.nl, though. You could have read it there. It also said that you had to contact us if you wanted to switch to the new, cheaper equivalent of your package."
- Question. What if the monthly price for my package goes up? That would appear on my invoice automatically, right?
"Yes, that's correct. We will let you know if prices go up."
This is how the conversation went. No shit. He just said it, right there. Would have been funny if it wasn't such a disgrace.
Unbelievable.

Re: The New Vak 425 Pathetic Joke Corner
Germany's great football cult magazine, 11 Freunde ('11 Friends') has a great photo series of players throwing up after victories. The series is called 'Positives Kotzen' (something like 'Positive Puking').
Today's featured star: Hertha BSC's Per Skjelberg. Let's have it, Per.

Right. Scientific evidence has finally arrived: there is only one real game of football.

Americans, please explain this to the rest of your country. Thank you.

And Holland almost beat South Africa too. It's nice to see some non-traditional cricket countries do well on the big stage.
