I'm leaving in the morning! My bags are packed and I'm really excited. My wife and I will leave Los Angeles early Thursday Morning and we will arrive in Cattolica Friday, late afternoon. We first fly to Ohio, then to London and on to Bologna, Italy. I will report back when I come home June 14th. I can't wait to see the Genesys keyboard at Generalmusic. I will miss this forum and all my friends here! Talk to you soon!

Have a nice journey, George; living in Italy during the Soccer World Cup you will experience something entirely new: a whole country going crazy over a sport event.
Really hope you will enjoy your stay here.

Actually, when we Italians lose a soccer match, we are sick for months; I will leave Saturday morning to San Francisco, and my flight is due just half an hour before Italy plays vs. Croatia, and not being able to watch the game I will be sick for the whole length of the flight (about 14 hours).....just to give you the idea.

Dreamer,

in 1998, it seemed to me that Itallians felt sour that France "stole" the cup from them. France never defeated Italy, only in Penalties. Also some of the French players were part of Itallian teams in the first place and this is the place where they learn the Itallian strategy and the classical Itallian defense.

The same deal in 1994. Italy lost only in penalties. I always thought that the play maker and strikers were very important. I know the fans liked Del Piero and Roberto Baggio. But I never liked them. I thought that del pierro is physically weak and was always canceled by other teams defense. Roberto Baggio played was very conceited and was way overrated. Unfortunately for Italy, Zola received the red card in 1994.

SK880 user,
Of course we felt sore; in fact we are still sore! But this year things will hopefully change...
By the way, you seem to know a lot about italian habits and if I am not wrong you have some relatives in the Northern part of Italy (Veneto maybe?)
Too bad you don't live in California...

Dreamer,
I am routing for Italy and the USA of course. I liked how England played. But yet, I have not seen a team that Italy cannot beat so far. So hopefully this year!

On other news.

Senegal versus Denmark. The intentional foul by the Senegal player should have been flagged as red card and not just a yellow card. Senegal played very physical game and very extreme. I think the official was very weak otherwise, where are the rest of the yellow and red cards against the Senegal?

Argentina Versus England. Both teams were good; however, I thought England played slightly better. The Argentina coach should have replaced the Argentina striker earlier than this. He reminds me of Roberto Baggio: DO NOTHING, WAIT for the PERFECT pass and then if it score, claim glory to yourself. Let me say it: sorry Argentina fans, he ain't Maradona!
