"unlawful commercial activities" = wearing orange clothes?

Re: Countdown to American Elimination

Is that an upset?

Everything bad in the economy is now Obama's fault. Every job lost, all the debt, all the lost retirement funds. All Obama. Are you happy now? We all get to blame Obama!

Re: Countdown to American Elimination

well, the fifa is a horrible organisation, ran by the most corrupt idiot of them all  - sepp blatter.

this guy will let his mother be taken roughly in the ass by an elephant if it earns him a euro.

i still don't understand how you can be arrested for wearing anything, brand name or no brand name (there is no brandname on the dress, why is it even offensive). sure, they can deny you access to the stadium if they want to, but i see no ground for an arrest...

in fact, adidas is a main sponsor for the tournament, is everyone with a nike logo on their clothes/shoes getting arrested too now?

NEE NAW NEE NAW

Re: Countdown to American Elimination

It's indeed a silly idea.. But it's more or less the same on the Olympics.
I remember one of our Belgian lady tennissers (I think it was Henin) having difficulties to participate there because of the conflict between the official sponsor of the Olympics and hers.
Eventually, the uproar was large enough for her sponsor to back down though.

Damn straight it is. tongue

FIFA paid South-Africa to make some temporary legislation to ban ambush marketing etc. The thing is, there were no brand names on the orange Dutch babe-dress.

FIFA shoot itself in the foot here though, if they had ignored the girls, this might've gotten a little attention in the Netherlands, now it's global.

Wankers.

I think there already was one in the USA. By the way, inane loud noise is very much part of football, but the Vuvuzela is taking things a step to far. You can't chant a proper chant because them horns blow all other sound away.

Although, I've seen some players using the noise to their advantage.. Telling the ref you didn't hear the whistle because of the Vuvuzela, pure genius!

Re: Countdown to American Elimination

upscale hardware and camping stores sell cans of compressed air with little horns as "boat signals" you know for safety. $7.99.  Those are about the size of two cans of soda and they make a vuvuzela seem like wind chimes on a spring day.  Of course, if it annoyed you, I'm SURE we'd leave them home.

He took down a player that was broken through their last defensive line, which is an instant red card. Correct call by the referee.
