Heartbreaking, yet memorable photos...

And I bet that's the same reaction your parents had when they found out you were born.



I don't think Iraniboy's mom is as good at twerking as KC's mom is. I bet she's a real professional.

Aha so you admit Iraniboy's mom twerks. I knew it!

We have been on here for a while and we have seen the same posts over and over. There is always something wrong, there is always something to complain about. They complain just for the sake of complaining. They complain about one thing AND the opposite of that thing too. :s :s :s


Also, what it felt like when I realised iraniboy/IranChamps is back:

Our players cry because:

* We are emotional people to start with.

* For most players this was their last chance at a big tournament.

* Iran is not a Germany/Argentina or even Ivory Coast to qualify for every WC. The next time we qualify might be in 8 or even 12 years and even then it will be a damn hard task as usual.

So I do kind of understand the players' reaction. Or perhaps they cry because deep down they feel that we might have had a chance to get a possible win/qualification had we not played so defensively even when we were behind. No one knows...but what I do know is that these are no crocodile tears! If the average Iranian had 10% of Ando's gheyrat, we wouldn't have been where we are now!

Cheers!

I have a different opinion. A coach once told me if you are sad or cry after a match it's because you didn't give it your all. I never see players from other countries reacting to losses like Iranian players. It's becoming a broken record. Just play your heart out...I suspect part of it is that we hype our TM up, and put expectations on them that yes an Italian, German or ARgentinian team should meet, but realistically our TM can't. Maybe I am still emotional as my sentiments have varied over the past 24 hours, but to be fair, we played terribly yesterday and the result was a fair one.
If anyone should be crying it's the bosnians who were robbed of a point against Nigeria, and should have qualified with this win.

Great post and I agree with you wholeheartedly.

Wtf is this shit? Why are our players weeping like 8 year old school girls? Embarrassing. Man up.

Did you see Ivory Coast's reaction after they got eliminated on a dubious penalty call in the 93rd minute? None of them shed a tear. They were upset, sure. But they didn't sit on the pitch crying and rolling around like a toddler throwing a hissy fit.

Iranians emotions as a whole is the greatest gift and the greatest curse we have. Our emotions and gheirat is what allowed us to play Argentina so tough for 92 minutes but it was also the reason why we were defeated before the match vs. Bosnia even began.

I know. Someone already post some belly dancing pictures of Iraniboy's mom to cheer us up.

Why do I care? Stop replying to my posts you weirdo.

You guys take this rig show too seriously lol. Why post depressing pictures?

You know what guys( and girls) the photos are sad and we are all sad, but IMO the team needs to understand they fought not only Argentina, Nigeria and Bosnia, but they also fought sanctions, incompetent IFF, and mismanagement from our sports officials, the only things that helped us reach this far were TWO components , CARLOS QUIEROZ and the FANS! no more no less. For this, I thank you both!... We need not cry but rejoice for we have shown the world what can be done under sanctions! WE are true warriors and sometimes even warriors get defeated, but they donot lose the War, if one battle was lost... Cheer up, for what was shown to us in the last 2 weeks gives us hope and confidence of a better future....

Great post, but the bold part is where I disagree.

1) I disagree with your coach.

2) I have seen many games, where players break down afterwards, for a loss.

3) No we didn't play well, but that's as much to do with the quality of Bosnia, as with our own effort and lack of talent.

4) Yes, BIH was literally ROBBED of (at least) 2 points, by the refs, in previous matches. No question.

5) In my opinion, you are being heartless. I don't know, maybe that is your nature. It is a form of bullying (in a sense), to criticize those who try their hardest, but just can't pull it off. You obviously don't realize the merit in just pouring yourself into an endeavor you love, regardless of whether or not you can achieve the goal.
