    Does God exist?

    Can you please refrain from using textspeak? Seriously it makes you seem stupid and what you say hard to comprehend.

    Does God exist?

    I don't how there's a need to make an exception for religion. Religion might be about faith but that doesn't protect it from rational criticism.

    Re: What subjects should I take if I want to do Law after high school? HSC marks aren't great indicators of your English ability. In general if you're finding it difficult to construct sentences with decent grammar levels then you might need to improve in order to do well at law school...

    Italy did NOT play catenaccio. At times they played defensively (e.g. when they were at a numerical disadvantage against Australia), but I don't think they ever deployed the catenaccio system.

    The concept of "best" is far too subjective anyway. Imo part of it might be being able to perform when it matters. For example the fact that Ronaldinho failed to perform at the World Cup has more weighting in assessing his worth as a player than him failing to perform in say, five matches in...

    The fourth official (cantolejo) saw it i think. How can we know for sure what he said? If a player automatically receives a red for receiving a headbutt, an Italian player could just "sacrifice" himself and headbutt Zidane. fines mean nothing to millionare footballers when the world cup is...

    That is true. Anyway I thought it was rather ironic. In addition to the headbutt incident, Zidane dived quite a few times in the Portugal game alone.

    It's funny how Ronaldo lost the best young player award based on "fair play" but Zidane went on to win the Golden Ball :) FIFA has done it again.

    Good decision. Should have been Argentina or Germany Spot on Should've been C.Ronaldo Zidane only played well in a couple of the games. How did he get golden ball :confused:

    Sorry but France are no saints either. Zidane dived at least twice in that match before the headbutt. Henry dived decisively against Portugal and Spain, as did Malouda in the Final. The difference between France and say, Italy or Portugal is that the former doesn't have a bad reputation among...

    It was clever play (albeit in the unsporting sense) rather than a clear dive. Instead of running with the ball he chose to run into the man.

    It's ironic for you to say that, given what has probably provoked Zidane.

    I reckon it was probably a racist comment. Wouldn't put it past Materazzi - one of the dirtiest players in football.

    I only hate penalty shootouts when the team I'm going for loses.
