Die Mannschaft Train & Badass Around Monaco

OMG! You have no idea how happy I am to see Schweini and the other Bayern boys. He looks pretty happy too. I’m sooo excited for the tournament to start so Die Mannschaft can kick the serious arse that I know that will. Whoops! I’m being a little partisan, but they are my boos. I love Spain and I’ve supported Italy my whole life. I have a major fondness for the Dutch, but this year, I think Germany is going all the way. It’s hard when so many players you like and admire are spread across so many teams.

UPDATED: National Teams Training Round Up

The national teams are training again and all is well in the world. Updates on some of our faves within. First though, in happy news, Juanin and Nando are joining La Roja for the upcoming friendlies! (UPDATED: I added some new photos)

Die Mannschaft Goodies!

Super duper awesome watishista! Jenny Jenkins kindly provided us with some adorbs Die Mannschaft training shots and also 2 completely incredible promo spots that they made in support of the German Women’s National Team. If you weren’t madly in love with them before, you will be now…

Footballer Fashion Follies

OMG! So melj1213 from LiveJournal came up with a brilliant idea over on ONTD_Football. She posted this shot of Guti in his neon track suit (oh please, please, please let him sign to the NY Red Bulls!) and invited others to post their favorite football fashion fails. As you can imagine, our boys featured prominently along with many others. Go read the post, it’s hysterical. Here are some of my faves along with the LJ names of the people who posted them. If you have pix to add, please feel free to stick them in the comments here or over at LJ. This is too much fun (and we sorely need some right now).
