I agree. The quality of football was increasingly disappointing on both sides. The luckiest team won.
Usually the luck goes with the better team. I'm not sure the Germans are better, but they have more stable team.
My first Mosaic order was the biggest: Rivers, Andrew Hill & Trisiano-Marsh-Konitz.
If I remember correctly, it was in 1997.
Since this order, too many $$$ exchanged hands between me and Mosaic....
