World Cup Fever continued...


WOW...That one hurt...hit me even harder the next day....

Our loss to Italy was a bit tainted because of the loss of Frings less than 24hours before the game....and yes some yellow cards that were not handed out...etc....rumours have started concerning payoffs etc....

But none of that changes the facts....:(

However...the positive thing is that we are still rallying together...that the fans havn't given up on their team or their flag waving....and we will still be cheering on Saturday for them.....

WORLD CUP FEVER


World Cup Fever has truly hit Germany...and I am glad.

People all over Germany are redefining what it means to be German...and what the flag represents.

After arriving here oh so many years ago I was shocked to discover the shame that many young people had concerning their nation...most of which had taken place before they were born. The flag became synonomous with Nazis and no longer Germans....people were afraid to be proud...afraid to wave their flag or wear their colors....

A newer and wiser Germany...remembers the past...but embraces a future that they can be
proud of.
