    As a soccer fan, that goal was lame. However, the goalie deserved it because he took too much time to kick the ball.

  • Whenever I ask some of my computer geek friends about this sort of thing they go into so much boring detail it puts me to sleep. But when you guys talk about it, not only do you make it sound interesting and informative, you put some humor into it to. *applauds*
  • Thank you for teaching me some things I didn't know.

    I didn't know I was doing such a dangerous operation when I created a 20 gig partition to test the vista beta with partition magic.. luckily everything worked flawlessly for me O.o

    Great show btw, this was the first tech show in a while that was both relevant and interesting. However I have doubts you two can do ten more of them ;)

    No, because the ball was still in game and there was a member of the other team before him. If the ball would have being between him and the goal keeper then it would have being outside.
