ALE ALE ALE ALEEEEE, WE ARE THE CHAMMPPPPSSS, WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!!

All bow to the new kings of world handball!

So our football sucks lately (after being third in France just to remind you

) (also, we will qualify for Portugal and wreak havoc there I am sure) and our basketball is on all times low point

so the economy sucks

so we have nothing to eat

and we are in debts to our neck

and so on

blah blah blah

do I look like I care?

WE ARE WORLD CHAMPIONS IN HANDBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Croatia

ZOVI SAMO ZOVIIIII, SVI ?E SOKOLOOOOVIII......

The Germans were utterly defeated

They are not our match

In Portugal maybe, we show them who is the boss in Football too

HRVATSKA HRVATSKA!!!

So, let's make a summary:

you are the world champions of the world's stupidest
sport after curling, field hockey and horse dressage

WHOOOOWOOWOWWWAAAAAH!!!!!

CROATIA RULZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Winston · February 2, 2003, 19:56

Congratulations to Croatia! Well played throughout the tournament.

A good deal of people here thought that Denmark had the potential to maybe go in the final, but they sold out against Russia and Croatia in the middle stages. Oh well, women's handball is bigger here anyway.

Go Croatia!

VetLegion · February 2, 2003, 20:02

Winston,

sorry for overruning Denmark

Such is sport, one must lose so one can win. Some Croatian players play in Denmark professionaly IIRC, good handball there.

and dont you try to weasel it out with 'womens is bigger here'

yeah, right!

we beat you, live with it

CROATIA.... CHAMPIONS... I want to get used to hearing this

VetLegion · February 2, 2003, 20:05

My little Italian

After your country wins something against Ethiopia (lets give you Tanks and give them spears to even the odds

) you are allowed to speak

In the mean time where can I donate money to teach your football players to spell?

VetLegion · February 2, 2003, 20:07

And curling, yes that must be the craziest sport in the world

maybe, just maybe woman carrying (Finns and Estonians do it) can compete

crazy sports

Winston · February 2, 2003, 20:10

Glad to see you and your countrymen so genuinely happy with this victory. If the Germans had taken the trophy, they'd probably have just turned their noses up, giving interviews on how they could have won bigger if the referees were doing their job properly. World's sorest victors in sports...

So for that reason also, I'm with Croatia on this one.

VetLegion · February 2, 2003, 20:19

thanks

btw., Danes judged the match... we were getting jumpy towards the end... what are they doing!? they are destroying us!! the judges hate us!! etc

In reality they just took away a ball or two in the end and generally judged fairly, but if we lost, guess who we would be blame it on

OneFootInTheGrave · February 2, 2003, 20:59

Wooot

I just followed in the newspapers up to the quarters

Now that is a suprise

Hint: If nothing else exists, you can eat the handballs

Pekka · February 2, 2003, 22:55

VetLegion, I actually have had that in my hobbies in my Profile forever.. it's just in finnish 'akankanto'.. means carrying the woman

But I don't really follow handball.. sorry

. Congrats anyway!
That chick is super hot! I really like her.. do you know her? I want to marry her and make her the mother of my children yes.. she would be a good mother too I bet!

edit: I can't wait! I'm already in love with her.. I will learn to speak her language fluent so we can do shop lingerie shopping etc.

Bereta_Eder · February 2, 2003, 22:57

I think she's working in a brothel in Greece like most Croatian girls are. The country's only export.

Pekka · February 2, 2003, 23:02

paiktis, I don't care, I'm in love right now.
I mean look at my last post '...fluent so we can do shop lingerie shopping etc.'.. My grammar gets to that level only if I'm excited or angry, and I can't get angry to thos.. that face.

Bereta_Eder · February 2, 2003, 23:17

A great novel can be written out of this.

Expatriate tourist Finn falls madly in love with an honest hard working Croatian prostitute in Greece.

Their meeting could be random, as a gentle stroke from the feathers of fate, say in a bus stop.

As the love story progresses, there is hot sex, accompanied with exploring and discovering each others cultures and different ways of life.

I like it

Perhaps the French can direct the adaptation to a movie

just j/k Pekka

Pekka · February 2, 2003, 23:25

I'm all for it! I don't want to play the leading role, but it can be based on my life then.. sure.

We'll get a boy and a girl, but I'm not sure if we give Croatian name to the boy or to the girl.. though we could name boy Mirko, because that's finnish name too. Maybe we could find common name for the girl too.. but of course this is after years of hot sex and all that.

But I don't want to live in Finland, I'm not sure if I want to live in Croatia now, so we must move to third country. It will be a good movie.

Master Zen · February 2, 2003, 23:59

After seeing that picture, I'm sure handball is not the only thing Croatians are good at...

FELICIDADES!

Imran Siddiqui · February 3, 2003, 01:30

And don't disparage the great sport of curling

My little croatian

I'm sure you could ask your handball players to fight with us, considering the huge power of a country the size and the looks of a scrotum which is Croatia

VetLegion · February 3, 2003, 21:01

what whiners!

paiktis, this 'beatiful women are whores' issue you are having... it is really none of my buissiness but I suggest you try a therapy

I mean before 'voices' tell you to go hurt 'the prostitutes' or something

datajack, I just visited pages of the Italian Handball Federation. They have a section which lists all Italian victories in the sport. I completely understand your misery now

Cant believe what I am reading from you southern folk

This thread shows that it takes a Dane to be a man!

VetLegion · February 3, 2003, 21:04

50 000 people gathered today to greet the champions.. I ll get you some pics

Pekka · February 3, 2003, 21:05

More pics of that lady please.
Also did you see 'Savior' already?

VetLegion · February 3, 2003, 21:09

.

Pekka · February 3, 2003, 21:13

That's more like 200 people, and they're all waving Russian flags?

j/k

VetLegion · February 3, 2003, 21:16

I cant post any more pics.. well, doesnt matter

Pekka, if you ever want a Croatian/Slavic name ... Ratimir would be an excelent choice. Even Ruskies will understand it and be affraid

And I rented Saviour, I ll see it after I see Apolo 13 though, some time tommorow. I cant wait to see the movie that made you want to establish the American Foreign Legion

VetLegion · February 3, 2003, 21:21

50k minimum.. I cant find a good areal photo, this one is a little better though

Pekka · February 3, 2003, 21:22

Ratimir.. it sounds kind of.. hard name, in finnish at least, almost like Vladimir if yankees tried to pronounce it. But of course WE know how to say it correctly

.
But if the Ruskies will be afraid of it, it's good name

Take your time. I don't know if you really like that movie, but I just thought it's great. It has good down to earth feeling and a bit emotional too without being too romantic movie. It's raw and it's just great. But no, this movie did not make me want to establish that Legion.. this movie didn't stop me wanting it, that's all

.

Datajack Franit · February 4, 2003, 03:56

My little croatian

50,000 buffons getting drunk in the middle of a square because of some morons won a handball match is something really cool!

btw we don't waste our money is stupid sports nobody cares about winning, our sports federation is busy counting all the world and olympic gold medals we got in respectable disciplines as archery, swimming, diving, volleyball, windsurf, fencing, gymnastics, waterpolo, athletics, winter sports and of course too many others to remember- now if all you can get are a nazi-supporting skier and her obese sister, both filled with steroids to their toes, and a bunch of guys throwing balls in a net.. my apologies for you and your country if that's the best you offer to the world

Shi Huangdi · February 4, 2003, 04:23

I applaud the Croation nation for it's impressive achievement. For such a small country to defeat all those larger countries is most impressive feat.

Now Croatia, you can understand what it is like for America. When you are the best at something(like the USA is at being powerful, and like you are at handball ) all the people from lesser countries snipe at you in a pathetic fashion for they are green with envy.

Congrats Croatia!
