This is interesting. Roughly 40% of "Les Bleus" are Muslim. In the next generation, it will be majority. Football teams may well be useful indicators of the demographic/religious/cultural changes in Europe.
Also interesting is that 3 of the 9 are converts. Like all good Vichyists, getting a chance to ride the Strong Horse is pretty tempting.
Allons, Enfants de La Mecque!

I'm rooting for these guys over Les Vert-Bleus. Anyone knows whether they're showing the match in the ET zone?
More: Up front Romania have another player who has made a remarkable comeback: Adrian Mutu. Four years ago he was drinking the blood of porn stars and taking cocaine to boost his sexual performance. Hmmmm... Is he Brazilian, or Portuguese?
AI, I think ESPN, on one of its channels, is showing Romania vs La Mecque at noon, Boston time. If you aren't at home, a sports bar should have this.
If you don't have access to TV, there are websites you can get an online feed; e.g. "channelsurfing.net", "rojadirecta.com"
Mutu is all yours, AI.
Go Romania. You can catch the games on RAI International, maybe.
Ribery looks devilish. Mutu seems to have had a tugh time with Mourinho at Chelsea, but he's doing better in Italy, I guess. By the way, "mutu" literally means "mute".
Mourinho sucks. Remember that thing about Ranieri a long time ago AI? So how'd it go?
ah, yes. terror by football. You heard of it first on FCP.
Obama is a nazi, Zinedine Zidane has joined Al Qaeda, it's just another day on planet fcp.
Count on Pepe to distill the wisdom of the ages, with laser-like precision, and iron-clad logic. Not.
After all the Sturm und Drang, the France-Romania game was a letdown. What a bore! On the other hand, the flying Dutchmen made mincemeat of the macaronari. Hah! Where is my Heineken, JJ?
I don't know about Hitler but he is a distant cousin of Cheney if you want to make the point that he's got bad blood.
So, Pepe likes to think in terms of "bad blood" as the measure of men. The Vichy imbibed their racial cocktail well.
AA - it's good to have you back. After your post this morning I had a feeling you'd spend your day cowering in your bunker, worrying about whether those mean soccer players were going to come to you & make you wear a burkha. I'm glad you took the high road, conquered your fears and resurfaced.

So your Le Mecques failed miserably at defeating the last vestige of the Imperium Romanum...pathetic.
But that's alright, they'll compensate by riding the Strong Horse over Paris and Le Midi. Makes inadequate footballers feel a little less like pussies.
I hope they can stumble onwards long enough to have Le Mecque contra Cristiano Ronaldo. Bring a few tears to your Vichy eye for the Qaeda guy.
i understand soccer is important to you aa. it's good to have a hobby.
