Today's quote caught my eye as being actual but already outdated.

 Quote:
"Italian footballers were showered with applause and surrounded by flashing cameras, songs, and chants. The hubbub generates a sense of excitemen unique to the sport of football."

Do Hung; Champions' Charm; Thanh Nien (Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam);
Jun 5, 2008.

On Jun 8, ,the proud Italian Champions of the world suffered a historical, unprecedented 0-3 defeat against the Orange-11. So the horrendous hubbub in streets and cafes will go on for a while. The horn blowing, the whole orange haberdashery, flags, baloons, wigs and hats will dim the horizon for as long as we stay in the game.

The Italian footballers and crowd were not amused.
