This is amazing. How the hell could a hand picked team be this out of synch?

The French World Cup soccer team refused to practice Sunday after their striker was expelled from the team.

Striker Nicolas Aneka was removed from the team after he was involved in a profanity laced tirade against coach Raymond Domenech.

Along with the loss of a team leader, team director Jean-Louis Valentin also resigned because he was fed up with the team.

There is probably an all week long Jerry Lewis movie-thon playing in France.

This would be a great distraction to the nation’s soccer team.

No doubt the French Government will just reward each team member with a replica World Cup trophy anyway.

Vive la France!

Sounds like the French coach has the full support of his team.

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause.” Teddy Roosevelt

The worst-kept secret going into the WC for the French was that their coach is a lame duck coach.  Everyone knows he is getting fired after the tournament.  Looks like they should have done it sooner to stop a mutiny.

There are French sites claiming (facetiously) that the team needs to sign Allen Iverson to bolster the defense now. That is one of the kinder things I’ve found.

Are they really quitting?  Or just doing the French thing and going on strike?

Either way, I can’t help but find this whole story hysterical.
