World Cup Slogans

[Boyne]

From the FIFA website. Each country has voted for a slogan. Some interesting slogans. I like the Japanese reference to the Samurai. Have visions of Japanese fans wielding samurai swords around Brazil. Apparently impossible is not a word in France.

Russia's should be: "we will annex you" lol

 

the Holland one (gee, I am never sure when it´s Holland and when it´s Netherlands) is a bit sexist... not that I mind, but in our current PC society, some people will be angry about they defining what "a real man" is supposed to be.

 

Italy one seems the weakest to me.

 

Greece should be: This is GREECE!

 

Honduras reference to 5 stars... what five stars? Have they ever won anything?

 

Ivory Coast... has Ronaldo (the Phenomenon) naturalized Ivorian?

 

Bosnia: the favorite team of the Targaryens

 

Cameroon: the favorite team of the Lannisters.

 

Brazil: hmmm... too much confidence in the title... reminds me (nightmares) of 1950, when a Rio newspaper proclaimed the team champion in the morning BEFORE the match against Uruguay...

Iran - We're only here to seek asylum

Does this count as a slogan?

 

"Dressed in red, white and blue, World Cup Willie

We all love him too, World Cup Willie".

 

 

 

Ah the memories... way back when I really cared about the World Cup.
