My dear faggots,
I admit that if I do not update people won't really make any postings. I am aware of that. Still, for those who are new to the place, the previous postings are just fun to read and should draw a few laughs.
Well, I am officially during holiday right now (Reading Week, a dumb name for a holiday, who the fuck is gonna read?) Still I have to work, so do not expect me to be home during mornings. I also wanna take care of some shit (immigration papers, some video for a presentation that I have soon etc.). But enough with this silly shit.
To begin with: I HAVE A NEW TV! Just bought a 27-inch Sharp from Future Shop a few minutes ago!... Unfortunately, since I had to pay for delivery (sluts) the cost came up to 380$, higher than the original 250 which was written there (well, 40 delivery, 44 3-year insurance and the tax, 15%). Well, my budget was 350, so the difference is small. I wanted to buy a DVD player for 70$, since my crap laptop doesn't have the plug to connect to the TV. (Romanian quality huh?). I didn't buy the DVD player though... not ewnough money and my dad told me that I could use it for different purposes. SHIT!
On Friday I smashed my Accounting exam (I can get 100%) and then I celebrated at Hari's place by... playing cricket. We played till the goddamn concierge threw us out from the basement of his building... Well, that was it for Friday night.
Saturday was better. After checking out prices for TV's, I went for a quick basketball match with Ovi, my best Romanian buddy here. Well, that was the healthy part. The unhealthy part was that afterwards we went to Brutopia and had a couple of beers and smoked a lot of cigarettes. I didn't get drunk or anything, but Ovi became a little buzzed, not too bad though. But it was a fun night out.
Well, tonight it seems that I will go out again. More booze for a better life.
The past few days I was happy to see Romania destroy other teams in football. Good shit. Some people complain that we play against wankers like Belarus, Georgia and Hungary. Besides the fact that a victory against Hungary is always good (fuckin hungarians...), we have good news that the players in the internal championship are capable of putting up good performances.
While taking a superb shit last night I started thinking about the national team a little bit and trying to see what will happen. Well, the good news is that we are still capable of beating the shit out of small teams like Belarus and Georgia. The thing is that against better teams, let's say medium teams (Denmark, Sweden, Bulgaria) we become shaky. We can beat them, we have the team to do it. But, as the qualifiers for EURO2004 showed, we can still fuck up. Yes, blame the referee (yes, the match against Denmark was lost because of the referee), but what about the losses at home against Norway and Denmark?
If we discuss the top teams in Europe, we can barely beat them. Spain, Italy, France, Germany or Holland are still nightmares for Romania. Not even the Golden Hagi Generation was able to defeat them. The only powerful team we were able to master was England (last English victory against Romania was in 1969). Still, England is not as good as those other powerful teams (I guess Italy or France can slaughter them easily).
So, what is to be done to go to WC2006? Let's say Andorra and Armenia are a sure 12 points. Macedonia is stubborn, but let's hope for 6 points as well. Finland. Well, this is a small problem. If we stumble against them like against Norway, we are in deep shit. Czech Republic and Holland are the real tests, the moment when the Romanian team can prove if we have value or not. Honeslty, I am an optimist and I hope to get at least 6 or 8 points out of these matches. Still, we are in deep trouble.
This is how the perfect Romanian team would look like for these matches:
GK: Lobont
D: Contra, Iencsi, Chivu, Rat
M: Fl. Petre, Cernat, Pancu, Munteanu
A: Mutu, Ganea
best bench players: Radoi, Fl. Stoican, Bratu, Ilie, A. Stoica, Stelea
Which is the best team u could line up if u were the Romanian coach? Please place ure comment regarding the team.
Till the next time, have a good wank...
