  6. why does this qualify to be posted in the f1 section...­ seriously..

    From BADMAN, on Tue 30 Dec 5:44PM

  7. To b.thebuilder,

    Maradonna did not cost England the­ world Cup.......
    The horrific defending did.....Let the­ hand of God issue go...Breath Gad Damn it.

    How can any­ one complain when 4 ft bitty maradonna Out jumped 6 -4­ in Peter shilton to knock that ball in the net.....and­ lets not forget the way he dribbled past a whole team­ & scored the goal of the tournament.

    Even if the­ first goal did not count - Maradonna would have scored­ another.

    LET IT GO!!!!!!!

    From Robert, on Tue 30 Dec 4:03PM

  8. This Diego isn't a cheat, this Diego is a team­ player and this Diego won't ruin his national team­ as coach and die on the bench as the other cheat will­ do. The fat one can give God his hand back before­ burning in hell. It's a good thing that the foot of­ God was with Beckham in 2002.

    From Martin, on Tue 30 Dec 3:11PM

  12. @comment1
    So sorry pal, your nightmares and sweaty­ flash-backs. This diego is not the DIEGO that causes­ your defenders to dive for cover. The real "Hand­ of God" maestro must be haunting your country real­ bad.
