World Cup Predictions
Hi guys and gals,
Sorry to be out of touch during the World Cup trip, but I had no access to a computer during our whirlwind trip. I will be posting pictures of some of our stops and impressions of the tournament and trip as soon as our pictures are developed. Yes, I said developed. I'm still using a film camera. I know - it's so 1998.
Meanwhile, I'd love to know everyone's prediction for the final. While I would love to see the French win, I think it will be Italy 1 to 0 in the end. I don't see how even the magical Zidane can get past that back line of the Azzuri, and the French goalkeeper's unorthodox methods frighten me.
Knowing that the U.S. outplayed Italy in the first round and watching the Italians flop around to get foul calls is enough to make me a France supporter for the final, but I have a feeling the end result will have all of us French fans saying "sacrebleu"!

We were talking about this yesterday during a "race" on the Chesapeake (so little wind that, when we abandoned, we actually were about to drift backwards over the start line due to current, after an hour of beating up in what little wind there had been at the start). Our unanimous consensus was 1-0 Italy, despite us all rooting for France due to the Italian flop factor. Today's Post said nearly the same thing. Does anyone think it will anything other than an Italian "lockdown?" If so, I haven't heard...
