Generation War (German: Unsere Mütter, unsere Väter, literally "Our mothers, our fathers") is a German World War II TV miniseries Initial release: March 1, 2013

Missed most of the first episode shown on tv last week. Watched the second one last night. This is very good, and some of the battle scenes are extremely well portrayed.

Watching it now. Very very good. Not the side of WWII you see very often. By they way is it common practice for the Wehrmacht to assault building etc with their full gear on, Sleeping rolls and canteens ?

Lol, just now? ;)

Yeah, do you guys memorize 1x1 to 10x10 multiplication since 2nd grade (8 years old) and algebra by 4th grade (10 years old)? We also learned calculus (integral, differential, etc) and trigonometry in high school.

That is pretty sick curriculum there.  >:(

The kids don't memorize it now, at least my kids don't. They are explained the concept and then have to apply. They first start with breaking up numbers below ten. So 9 = 0+9, 1+8, 2+7 , 3+6 etc. That is pretty much the baseline for everything that comes after.

I on the other hand just to memorize the 1x1 tot 10x10 multiplication, but that started at the age of 6.

I guess even Basic education evolves.

If the next coach reverts back to 4-4-3. We would have Depay on left, Huntelaar central, he is still young enough and on the right Lens ??
I tought it was a mistake the first time, but it's the 2nd time you talk about this 443. You do know that there are only 11 players who can play, of whom only 10 are field players. Never hear of a 443 line up in this sport, 343 and 433 on the other hand could work.
It is Dutch thing, we use it. Thought it was known elsewhere too. Google it

The game was fun if you like watching good defense, which I don't  >:(.
Kinda hoped Van Gaal would switch to 4-4-3 during extension to have people attack from sides, get more balls to Van Persie/Huntelaar. Trying to cut through the middle doesn't work vs Argentinia as also seen with the Belgian team.

So now we have GER vs ARG. That Argentinian meat is tough to slice through with German Bratwurst. They played a hell of a defence and then do a hail mary to Messi and hopes he scores. So I will root for Germany during the finals, hope they play offence football.

Even with Neymar and Silva their defense remains weak. German is the first team to give actual opposition.

We should have mercy rules in football. This is too humiliating.

So saying to a player that you know in which corner he is going to shoot is bad sportsmanship.
I'd say it takes balls cause you are the one that looks like a fool when balls flies past you in the goal.

The actual bad sportsmanship is the increasing numbers of faking injury, diving and little kicks when you think the ref isn't watching. It almost makes me not want to watch Football any more, just like the Tour de France has been totally ruined by the constant doping affairs. 

I think final will be Netherlands vs Germany and the Germans do what they always do, win in the last minute  :(

Deliver the Promoting content, Jimi, and the devs will lend their credential to it if it is up to par. It is in making the content to so much time and effort is consumed.

Nigeria wasn't bad. They pierced the Maginot line a few times. And then the goalie blundered ...

England for me is always summarized by a camera shot around the 87 minute of the game zoomed in on Gerard pained face after another long shot from him missed the goal. Why couldn't England keep the energy and flow after the 1-1 score... such a shame.
