    A little girl was sitting in her classroom in England when her teacher walked in and started talking about how proud she is to be English and how wonderful it is to be an England supporter. The teacher then asked everyone who supported England to put up their hand. Every hand in the class besides one went up. This surprised the teacher and so she asked the little girl why her hand wasn't up. "Well," said the little girl, "because I don't support England." Even more surprised, the teacher asked her who she supported. "I support the Springboks", she replied. Now a bit irritated, the teacher asked the little girl why she supported the Springboks. "My mom supports the Springboks, and my dad supports the Springboks, so I support the Springboks."

    The teacher looked at the little girl and with a smirk asked: "Well, if your mom was an idiot and your dad was an idiot, what would you be?" The little girl looked up at her teacher, smiled and replied: "An England supporter!"

      Interesting how an English teacher in England is using American words.

        I wonder how many languages and sports that joke has mutated through before it got to us?

            It's an antelope, the "national animal" of South Africa, that also serves as the national rugby team's emblem.  Until The Transition, it was the symbol for all nearly all national teams.

                Then it should have read "What in a tampon is a string, boy"?

                  Well there is a question millions of Englishmen will have fun answering after Saturday nights game!! ;P As an Englishmen I cant wait for tommorrows final. We are for once the underdogs (in a World cup final) and its great going into a game knowing whatever happens you will either be elated or be thinking "we knew that anyway". The boks on the other hand..... I hope its a cracking game for the millions of neutrals, as for me I will have 999 (emergency services) ready on speed dial. Come on the English boys

Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. -- monty python Might I suggest that the universe was always the size of the cosmos. It is just that at one point the cosmos was the size of a marble. -- Colin Angus Mackay
