Either Benfica - Sporting, from 1994, where Benfica won 6-3 (great game, I was just a little kid back then, and I almost had a heart attack with that game... Sporting scored first, then Benfica, then Sporting again, then Benfica scored 4 in a row, then Sporting scored another, then finally Benfica closed the scoring, I think that was it) or a game I saw recently in a "Memories" like TV station around here, Benfica - Leverkusen, 1994 too. Leverkusen scored 2, Benfica scored 3, Leverkusen scored another 2, and finally Benfica scored another 1 in the discounts to tie the game and go through the round of whichever cup it was.

Dunno which one is the best for me, I have a hard time deciding on stuff like this, but my most cherished goal is one by João Pinto, from Benfica, against Sporting. Benfica won 6-3 that year... 1994, IIRC. He received the ball, turned around like his life depended on it, shot the ball from about 20-25 meters away from the goal, and stuck it right on the top corner, no chance for defence. Loved it.

Just saw that longer clip. ...Does anyone know how to stop ear bleeds? Damn, that was awful...

The Incredibles: 8/10 Was much better than I thought, even if it was dubbed. I liked it alot.

The Punisher: 8/10 Way better than I expected it to be, and it turned me into a Punisher fan. Shrek 2: 7/10 I liked the first one better, but this was good too.

He didn't use the term "black" with any racist meaning? What? Excuse me, but from what I've read, he called Henry "niegro de mierda", which, roughly translated, means "fucking black" or something like that. I dunno what he considers racist, but I consider that racist. This guy is a moron.

It is? I thought of that movie because of the drugs and stuff, but couldn't place that scene in it. Guess I'll have to watch it again. Thanks. Someone may close this if they want. ←

I just remembered a scene from a movie, where the main character, or the main characters (don't remember who he/she/they are/is) hitchhike and enter a van that mocks the Scooby-Doo characters. They all eventually start smoking something or drinking something or taking some pills or something like that that gets them high, and they all get under some weird effects (demonstrating the effects of drugs or something) and the girls start taking their tops off and they're all dancing and crap. I think it's from Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, but doubt it. Anyone knows what I'm talking about? Sorry I couldn't be more specific, but it's all I remember really, and it's bugging me for a long time now.

IIRC, it happened not too long ago, about what, 2 months ago, after Portugal's tie with Liechtenstein. Guess Russia paid for that.

The Punisher (2004 version): 8/10 I liked it alot, even though I didn't think I would like it that much.

I'm finishing "The Client" by John Grisham, and I like it alot, although not as much as Grisham's "A Time To Kill". Still enjoyable, though. Next one: American Psycho. Got that on Christmas :thumbsup:

Oh yeah, just remembered another one... This one's actually kinda funny, in a bad way. 7) Vitória Setúbal vs União Leiria - Setúbal was winning 1-0, right? There's a foul for Leiria, and there are two balls in play. Setúbal's GK Marco Tábuas goes to get one of the balls, and while he's carrying it out of the field, Leiria's players start the game again and score, WHILE there were two balls on the field and one of them was one the keeper's hands. Cute, huh? The goal was validated and dictated the final score (1-1). EDIT: And yet another one... 8) Sporting vs Benfica - This one happened in... lemme see... 2002, I think. Jardel, a Sporting forward, was in the area for a corner or a free kick or whatever. He jumped for the ball, and then FELL without anyone so much as touching him. I mean, his direct marker was almost a meter away from him. He simply jumped and fell. I still remember the look on his direct marker's face. It was a "WTF?" expression. And yet, the referee said it was a foul, and that allowed Sporting to tie the game. Go referees.

I made this topic to discuss about refereeing "mistakes" in the games, in whichever sports you feel like it. Dunno if this will stick, but meh, I gave it a try. I thought about making this because here there's huge controversy right now with the refereeing. The "mistakes" have been happening for years, beneffiting some teams, (mostly Porto, but they're not the only ones), and since it has become so blatantly obvious, that about 8 months ago there was this operation to stop corruption in soccer/football. Many important people regarding the football federation were arrested, but with no conclusion yet. Some weeks ago that same operation came back, indicting several referees, a business man and Porto's president. This is a shameful situation in my eyes and I hope it gets an answer soon. Anyway, some of the blatant mistakes I remember seeing recently... 1) Sporting vs Braga - A Sporting Lisbon attacker scores but his goal is ruled off by offside. Yet, he was more than a meter behind the defence. 2) Benfica vs Porto - Petit, a Benfica player, shoots from way out to what seems an easy save. Yet, the Porto goalkeeper lets the ball go and while the ball enters by about 50 centimeters inside the goal, it's not validated. That same game saw many Porto players completely tackle Benfica players without so much as a foul, which is the rule for Porto games. 3) Maritimo vs Porto - This one happened just yesterday. Benfica, Porto and Sporting were all tied in the first place, but Porto had one game to play. Marítimo was winning the match, and lo and behold, an offside goal for Porto giving them the tie and the edge they needed to be considered Winter champions. Hurray for Porto. (By the way, the newspapers gave a 1 out of 10 performance for the referee. I wonder why...) 4) Benfica vs Estoril - I'm a Benfica fan, but even I have to acknowledge this one. It was tied 1 - 1, and Karadas, a Benfica player, took a complete dive in Estoril's area. Penalty, 2-1 for Benfica. 5) Vitória de Guimarães vs Sporting - Sporting was losing, and after a foul on the goalkeeper (Beto took the ball out of the goalkeeper's hands with his left arm in a cross), they tied, cruising to the win later. 6) Académica vs Sporting - Again, a foul on the goalkeeper gave Sporting the win. The goalkeeper was completely run over when he was going for the ball, and the attacker just had to enter the goal with the ball. And that's not mentioning games where Porto (this is the most blatant team, but they're not the only ones. Just the most beneffited ones) is beneffited by having their players completely run over the opponents without so much as a foul, and having their offside goals count, and crap like that. This whole situation sickens me and made me lose my passion for football lately. I don't even watch games right now. The only ones I watch are replays from years ago that show up on cable. Bah. This turned into a bigger rant than I'd thought, but well, I needed to vent my frustration. Do the same, if you'd like.

Thanks mudda (Y)

Recently I heard this song in the radio, it has the same beat as Tupac's "Changes", so I'm gonna take a chance and say it's the original song and that Tupac took the beat for "Changes". It even has the same chorus, I think (it has something like "Some things will never change" or something like that). Anyone knows the artist/title of the song? Thanks in advance.

Just downloaded the demo, and I think I'm in love with the game.

Errrm... If it helps, I loved DC's recent "Identity Crisis" mini-series... The last one came out yesterday though. Other than that... Sorry, but I haven't been paying much attention to comics lately, with school stuff piling up and all that...

Changes. Can't go wrong with that.

You guys pull a magnificent draw against Arsenal, yet can't beat Porto? I hate you all. You should have been able to destroy those guys. Can't tell you how much I was disappointed when I saw the end result... EDIT: Just in case someone gets offended, the "I hate you all" part was a joke.

Black Album for me.

I don't really care, except for Porto. I only hope they go against someone strong, who humiliates them twice. I hate them that much. I don't care they're portuguese, I hate them and I want them to lose with a passion.
