No more pizza in Germany?
Things are really getting heated up only hours away from tonight’s big semi-final match between Germany and Italy, both three-time winners of the World Cup. After that Germany’s player Torsten Frings was suspended by FIFA for one game after having thrown a punch at Argentina’s Cruz just after Germany’s victory over the South Americans, the Germans, in particular the press, suspect that behind Frings’s suspension is the hand of the Italians, who naturally and obviously deny any involvement in the matter. Frings’s duty tonight would have been that of defending and following Francesco Totti around the pitch like his shadow. Instead he won’t be there. The Germans in the meantime accuse the Italian media for having requested Frings’s suspension. As a form of retaliation, they’re demanding a nationwide boycott of….pizzas! No doubt that’ll really scare the hell out of Italians living in Germany! I’d hate to see what’ll happen if Italy does in fact beat Germany tonight and make it to the final in their place. Will big, German, blonde and blue-eyed males also boycott those sensual, voluptuous and big-busted topless Italian goddesses who populate Italy’s many beaches every summer (which by the way are often frequented by hordes and hordes of German male tourists) if Italy were indeed to win the World Cup for a fourth time?
