[for o o o]

what james meant is probably that they looked bad cuz algeria kicked their asses. i mean, i get the feeling that some english fans will only consider "oh, we played so terribly" rather than admit that the little team from underdeveloped north africa played better. it's sort of like 100% of the responsibility for the game was in england's hands-- which it wasn't. so i read that declaration as quite fair, actually, if you read it like i do-- "they trumped us on every front". this of course doesn't mean that england played a great game.

battle of algiers is the perfect choice i think. and hot damn, next they will be facing the great satan!

ah, time to watch denmark-- i haven't seen them play yet.
