not so forza italia

Great result today. It would be nice to see Italy left behind in this round. 
Maybe they'd fire their drama coach.
You gotta like the Dutch attack. I wonder how the odds on the tournament 
changed today.

The team that starts a major tournament well almost never ends up winning 
it - happened to Brazil many times, Netherlands, Argentina, Italy etc etc.

After reading that the French coach takes astrology into account, I hope 
they get pumped out.  Mumbo jumbo.

Sure. Many teams might start a tournament well but only one can win it.
At this point, I'd have to call Holland favourites.
