I haven't been excited about them for a while. In 2006 the only match I watched in full was Argentina against... I think it was Germany. That goal with the 52 passes or whatever. Had the tv on in the background, but that was the only match that caught my attention for real.
:shocked:

I will watch as many games as I possibly can. Always do.

You should be able to notice the country's slowly getting Oranje'd up. :D

I used to be like that. In 2000 I watched Italy's opening match in the basement and when Pippo scored I jumped up from the couch and hurt my fingers against the ceiling :D

This year I don't even know or care when it starts. I'm spending 3 weeks in Italy in June, don't plan to watch a single match (but maybe it'll be fun to see Italy play in some bar :D).

Yeah, I really like that about living here, people get excited. And it's always in a nice kind of way, the commercials on tv are enthusiastic but they don't get into nasty nationalism like you see elsewhere.

:agree:

People just get really excited and feel like making it one big Orange party. Great football crowd, even if I say so myself. :D
