OMG -- the language that is going on at my house. At least it's in spanish so that when my 5 yr old repeats it, my mother won't know what he's saying! Anyone that's had high school spanish will understand, but at least my mom can still look at him and say "how cute, his spanish is really coming along. . .. "

I can hear her now!!!!!

Now i can sing..................and relax a little bit

Most important chant right now in the Spanish section in these stadiums are....

A POR ELLOS, O-E (oh-eh)
A POR ELLOS, O-E,
A POR ELLOS, O-E, O-E, O-E

Another one that was directed towards the ref and make the ESPN commentators laugh was,

HI-JO DE PUTA, CLAP< CLAP< CLAP< CLAP HI-JO DE PUTA. Most can figure that out (Son of a.........)

What a tenseful, but glorious day. Our curse has been broken!

Yes, i hear ya, but Ballack had a serious push on the portugese defender and it DID NOT get called. That should have been called off, where was the 4th UEFA ref on that play???? They should have called Ballack for a push in the back. Spilled milk, but nonetheless, fricking Germans & Italians always have a way of pulling games out of their..................

How about the Turks????? Beating Croatia in penalties and scoring 3 goals in 10 minutes against the Czechs. I still have that game on my DVR, that by far was the best game so far, well, second to Spain beating Russia 4-1!! David Villa witha hat trick!

VIVA Espa?a!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Germans doing whatever it takes to gain an advantage?? Surely never.

Deutschland Up!!!

Germans pulled it out, congrats. My vote for the tenacious goes to Turkey, what an incredible story, those guys.

Germans are a strong finishing team.

Yes, so, I put my life on the line for Spain today, a country I have neither visited nor have any connection to other than viewing Jackass II con senor ViveEspana. We viewed the waning moments at the German beer house in Panama City. We drank beer for the first however many minutes constitutes a game on the patio and went inside to watch the final three minutes or so. To my surprise, there were a few people decked-out in German garb, none of whom had any stronger ties to that country than mine to Spain, but there they were...time runs out and Spain wins. I go to the bathroom. Again, while I am taking care of business I am surprised to hear the bathroom chat demeaning the Spaniards. "We need to burn a Spanish flag," was offered up by a voice sounding like it was raised in the German province of Dothan. Many agreed vocally. My courage, fueled by the German beer, loudly asked to the assembled masses relieving themselves of the above mentioned the following question-"You know what the Germans are calling the Spaniards tonight?"...the nouveau Germans awaited the answer..."WINNERS!", I shouted out. Ha. Then I got the hell out of that bathroom. A bit later this guy who was draped in the German flag stood up in the bar and said something about being back in 2 years, and led the beer hall in a German song of some sort. When the bar was finished we answered the German anthem with the beloved Spanish tune "Na na na na, na na na na, hey-hey-goodbye!" It was good fun.
