Schlaand, Schlaand... Bloody hell. Germany - Argentina 4:0

Oh, the football was nice. I watched at home because I was sure we'd lose and didn't want to be in a mass-depressed group, but now I kind of wish I'd gone. Still, it was lovely.

And the betting game is already over, because all but one of the teams picked by the participants are out now. I don't blame the three who picked Argentina, because I'd made them out to be favourites too. But: They didn't expect the lovely young German team... on average, they're three years younger than me, they're practically children, but they're good (and some of them are cute, too!).

You know what, lindahoyland? You totally won, because you picked the best-placed team of all those chosen. It's f course particularly nice that you picked Germany! Seeing as I have a weird assortment of tokens, gift certificates and Paid time certificates: What would you like? Some Paid time, or perhaps extra userpics, or some combination thereof? Just tell me, and I'll figure something out. I'll also send a little something to the other participants once I've sorted out my payment options.

There are actually fireworks outside, and people crying "Deutschland". Seems to me that we need these tournaments every four years (or two, if you count the European championships) to get rid of any quasi-patriotic feelings that we could never show otherwise.
