I've followed the post-final posts with the difficulty typical of
these moments on rss (thousands of posts, hundreds of morons whose
mono-neuronic brains wake up just once every 4 years).
I still have about 1000 messages to check, if I ever do it, and I
skipped tons of garbage posted by idiots à la John Shocked or
ITALIA!!!

What I could hardly found, though, was JOY.
There were hundreds of posts of sore losers, and hundreds of bad
winners, that could only shout out loud in a way that had a lot of
rage but no happiness.

After "Italy-Australia: tale of a game", here's my small contribution
to rss about the feelings involved in this WC.
It's dedicated to all the people who never experienced it, with the
hope that once in their life they have the opportunity. I felt this
joy already twice in my life, and I'm very grateful of it.
So

LET'S TALK ABOUT JOY

Here we are again. Every dozen year a final, alternance says that this
is the one we win. Good omen bad omen: streaks lasts for a while, then
they are broken.

1970, the legend of semifinals, the match never lived but learnt on
history books. ItaliaGermaniaquattroatre, the word that still
identifies a generation.
1982: the joy of a child, first memories of football, the sweet
surprise to find out that the world may go upside down for a while,
and all the rules of common sense may be broken.

I was in Torino in 82! What an atmosphere after the WC win!!!
The best moment of my life, even though I was a child!!!

How does this compare to that win, the atmosphere?
I would have loved to be there celebrating.
