The elks and masons might have a problem with it. Some would be angry, most would be jealous. But hey, way to go.

NO in Official games (FIFA and any other Country Football Association).\nBut in some Leagues (especially youth) it is allowed.

Yes, it is ok. Sportsmen today can adopt the spirit of the Hussars in competition.\n\nThey must treat donning the national jersey, similar to what the Hussars donned during battle, as being representatives of their nation and do battle on a football field, with the same 'never say die' attitude.\n\nHowever, they must remember that they are sportsman and not warriors. Whilst they must fight to win (like the Hussars), they must display fair play, sportsmanship and note that it is only game, not a 'life or death' battle (unlike the Hussars)

"Automatically approved" is correct.

A lot!  The reality of Italian "dolce vita" lifestyle means that most Italians prioritize work very very low, and the business climate is the most laid back I have seen anywhere in the world.  Not unusual for Italian offices to empty out in the afternoons for "siesta" as in some latin american countries.  Business hours are hit or miss, and deadlines mean nothing to them.  I have had complex deals held up for weeks when Italian investors were involved -- only to have them finally surface and say innocently, "oh, was there a closing date we missed on this?"  You just have to expect and plan for a lot of slowdown and missed connections.

I wouldn't say it's just Juve.  FIFA doesn't come across as the sort of "clean skinned" organisation it says it is.  I'm sure Sepp Blatter and co. have a few skeletons in their closets.

Some football factions have an interest in allowing the results of matches to be influenced.\n\nWho's to say some games aren't bought?\n\nWe certainly know that Italian teams in the Sere A can't be trusted 100%.\n\nUntil Fifa actually THINK about what these "footballers" and their antics (diving, checking, looking for free kicks) are doing for the greater good of the game, we'll all just have to accept that teams who exploit the referee the best will ALWAYS win...\n\nAustralia went out there and played fairly, like MEN, and were robbed by a soft decision. If Italy had of earned that match all would be well, but seeing as they could only "win" by fowl means they have lost my respect permanently.

la notion de capitanat est defini au sein de l'equipe et n'as d'influence sur le jeu. Les seules categories de jouers definies dans la regele 3 , des regles du jeu dela FIFA est celle de gardien et de joueurs ( La Fifa definissant un minimum de 7 joueurs pour ses competitions mais laissan tle choix aux association nanitonale de definir le numero minimum) . Donc dans la situation que vous definissez il n'y a pas de violations des regles.

I'm with you Forza Milan! I also support the azzurri in the world cup largely because I'm an italian by heritage. I got hooked on AC milan when I was in Rome and caught an AC Milan game on TV in the hotel room. Just after that they were in the uefa championships with Chelsea (one of the view club games on regular cable TV) so I supported them from there on. (I'm fairly new to the European game)

I support A.C Milan and it's difficult for me to even like another team but if Milan wouldn't exist I think I would try to support Manchester United, mainly because of its glorious history. They're the only club to have the same coach for about 20 years as well. Sir Alex Ferguson is irreplaceable. He is a real representative of the club. But this things don't make me a fan of Man.U right now. For me Milan is too much special than any other club.

If your Italian friend has NO known job, but mysteriously has a wellspring of cash on hand, then he might be Mafia.\n\nIf your Italian friend is in the market for a car with huge trunk space....he might be Mafia.\n\nIf your Italian friend offers you a great deal on concrete Nikes.....he might be Mafia.

dont listen to the negative posts some of the jerks say about US soccer.  its apparent that they have never excelled in any fielding sports or participated in any their whole lives. most especially my fellow americans who still live inside their caves and continue to be ignorant to the whole world. my heart broke and I was disheartened when the US lost but i however continue to support the US soccer federation because these athletes are not corrupted like our other athletes in other professional sports like basketball and footbal in the US.  i stick with my team wether they win or lose. i share the pains with them coz they gave their best considering the limited talent we really had to begin with. i am hopeful that we make some drastic changes in the near future not only to promote but also support our our competing teams.\n\nre: to thx1176...  there are up days and down days...im a fan of the sport and  lets hope FORZA does not pull a roberto baggio in the final...  it would be great to see them in the final...but what the hell are they still doing with del piero... italy has better talent chose from... and i think alexi lalas' carrot top is an eyesore myself.

I think in Spain, as long as the club has not used up it's quota of non-EU players registered, it is ok for a US citizen to play for them.\n\nDepends on the club really.

A well sturctured organisation should behave well. As a tree is judged by its fruits... However, there are many people in the world who do not have good intentions. I personally do not support any business that is involved in any sort of immoral beaviour at all.

Keep your head on, don't let you be impressed by those bad jokes. They're usual, especially if British press is involved. Remember the trick they deserve to Sven (linked)!!!\nNever trust a columnist!!!\nHaving own team criticized isn't fair, but, as Italian, I've seen something going really too far:\n\n"There was outrage in Italian newspapers on Wednesday after German news weekly Der Spiegel published a satirical World Cup-related column on its Web site about the Azzurri entitled `Oiled up and greasy' which referred to Italians as 'parasitical forms of life'. \n\nThe article was later withdrawn and an apology posted on the Web site but that didn't stop the daily La Stampa declaring - `Italian parasites - that is how Der Spiegel prepares for the semi-final'."\n\nSo, don't be in anger. Their is definitively a dirty job...

First of all it's Mafia, not mofia!.  Second, most people only know of the Mafia because of Television, and not by personal ties.  The Mob isn't all that it's cracked up to be.  Most people don't have the strength or guts to "pull the trigger" on someone.  You have to be tough, not Hollywood tough either, you have to be real life tough.  Lots of people can talk big %*&#, but when it comes right down to it they get scared.  You should read about the history of the Mafia, and see just how it all started.  I a currently working on a re-write of my Mafia book entitled, The Brotherhood "The New Mafia Story".  I hope to have it done by the end of 2006.

If you're talking about kinky stuff, as long as you're both okay with it, it's fine. If you're talking corporeal punishment as a form of disciplining children, I'm okay with that too as long as it's not excessive and abusive.
