I like the Brazilians or the Argentinians myself. Their fans just seem to have a heckuva lot more fun. They even enjoy themselves when they riot; they do it with a smile on their face. When the English or the Germans riot, they don't look like they're enjoying themselves at all; they kinda look like they're only rioting because it's expected of them. The Koreans and Japanese are too polite when they riot; they almost ask your permission first before giving you a whack upside the head...and they look like they want to apologize after too.

Now if the Aussies hadda won......there's a nation that really enjoys a good riot.

I have to agree about the Brazilians. I was in London for one world cup where they did really well and they, the Brazilian fans, were a big, big story.

While the Spanish may not riot well, the throw a mean Inquisition.

Agree. Torquemado really knew how to throw an post-game party.....and talk about tail-gating before the game...think grilled heretics.

Now those were the days. Any more it's impossible to find poppy-seed buns large enough for a grilled heretic.

10 straight wins for the Sox with Schill, Wake and a cast of minor leaguers in the rotation. And tonight Pedro pitches in Fenway. Gonna be fun.
