Here's is a small video of ballot box tampering. There are more but they are too big. If I can find a way, I will post them. Oh, by the way, this is what the European Union is calling "fair and transparent" elections.

This is what the BBC says on it: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/5160188.stm If there are irregularities, it seems difficult to blame the BBC for being innaccurate when it's the EU's election monitors who appear to be saying it was a proper result. But I have to say, it's difficult to see...

Mexican elections

Hey everyone. I am still recuperating from Mexico's painful defeat agaist Argentina and that is why I haven't posted in a while. I would like to make a comment about the ongoing Mexican elections. I just heard over BBC News that Calderon was "officially" elected. THIS IS NOT TRUE! The election has b...

I was thinking the same thing. Too bad for Nakata, I thought the japanese would win it. The Aussies have now defeated a favored Uruguay team to make it to the WC, and took one away from the japanese in the last minutes.

Great victory for the mexican squad today. As you can imagine, the entire country has come to a standstill, and will probably continue to celebrate until our next match against Angola. Borgetti played some uneventful 40 minutes before coming off the pitch with may seem a small hamstring injury. No o...

Please try to forget the Cuahteminha (Blanco's bunny hop)...an embarassing moment! I agree with Furia, Salcido is a surprising defender, he could easily play any position in midfield as well. I see Mexico playing up to its usual expectations, defeat in 2nd round....i wish this wasn't the case. also...

Lavolpe was testing out a largely attacking formation. for the most part Borg, Franco, Bravo, Fonseca will not be on the pitch at the same time and his new strategy of playing Franco behind Borg is reaping no benefits. That's what friendlies are for...on that note great game by the Dutch, definitel...

Excellent article, except that Jaime Lozano didn't make it in the final team. Some of us believe that he would have made a much better option than LaVolpe's son in law Rafael "Chiquis" Garcia. Another player to keep an eye on is Salcido: a very fast and technically gifted defender who could also end...

Final score, Mexico 1 - 2 Netherlands Well the dutch made a come back to take the match. Good news is that Borgetti scored Mexico's only goal and played a very solid first half. During the first 45 minutes Mexico played with 4 forwards and looked very good. At the start of the second half Mexico mad...

Looks like they are going to broadcast it at http://www.myp2p.eu/index.htm/. Just go to "football-weekdays" and it's listed there (it's similar to asianplate). Another option is http://www.audiogol.com/. Just click the Mexican flag and the "tv" icon. Enjoy.

Borgetti plays vs. Netherlands

Bolton's very own World Cup rep Borgetti plays today vs. Netherlands. It will be a very difficult match for Mexico, specially given the latest result against France and a some very unfortunate and controversial statements made a couple days ago by head coach, argentinian Ricardo La Volpe. Here in Me...
