Tina in a Tight Spot

Germany beat Austria, 1 to 0. This means that Thursday night it's the Deutschland versus the Motherland.

Should I be for Portugal by association, or Germany by adoption? This is a tough decision, but I've got both flags.

GO WHOEVER WINS!

Oooo portugal vs. germany...well think of it this way. Whoever wins, you still have a reason to be happy!

Remember that time we were walking down that main portuguese street, and every time you saw the portuguese flag you would throw your arms up and yell MOTHERLAND! Haha, that was pretty funny. Embarassing at the time, yet funny.

MOTHERLAND!

I say root for the team most likely to win! That way you have gloating prilveges.

That team would be Portugal, but unfortunately, my German roommates have threatened to shun me if Portugal wins, and Fabio has threatened never to speak to me again. even if Germany wins, I get laughed at. this is a tough situation indeed

Talk about being caught between a rock and a hard place. Would anyone be offended if you waved both flags (one in each hand) and cheer maniacally whenever *either* team scores?

Oh yeah...on a brighter note, maybe folks will stop mistaking you as a Spaniard if you start yelling "Motherland!" whenever you see a Portuguese flag...

Tina, obviously the answer is PORTUGAL. This will be a repeat of the Euro 2000. Portugal completely wiped out Germany 3-0 with their B team sending Bert Vogts (fired coach) packing and completely retooling German soccer. They are in need to be retooled because they really do not play anything. This will be a game between the masters of creativity vs the robotic Fussball and in the end it will be Portugal 3 - Germany 1.

Miss you! Love, Dad
