I don't doubt it at all. "addition of individually talented players"!! 10 players were missing. Thats the whole team minus the keeper! It would have made a huge difference. Its a shame really, would have been good for Japan to have a more challenging game with Asian Cup coming up soon; would have been a good gauge of where the team is at right now. That said, I liked the way Japan played and look forward to their next game.

Stop whinging about 'badge kissing' and treating him like a lying scheming no-good. He is doing what every other modern football player does, going where the money is!
Its perfectly natural and common practice these days. International footballers are a commodity, a chess piece to be bought or sold, and they'll usually go the highest bidder. He'd be crazy to come back and play for J-league. Another season or two in Europe then maybe it'll be time to consider winding down his career back here.

Not much a choice now is it....
Can't see the beuracracy or financial sector being reformed any time soon unfortunately. Lack of reform is holding Japan back
Posted in: We know the LDP can't reform the bureaucracy. We have no idea if the DPJ can. So it's a choice between the certainty of no reform and the possibility of some.

Dead rubber give this match means nothing None of the big names are in the lineups for either team (Nakamura is being rested as are about 4 other members that played previous qualifiers)
Never the less, gives the reserves a chance to have a run around

overpriced, poor functionality, few features when compared to other phones. I'm still happy to carry my iPod Touch in the briefcase and mobile phone in the pocket.

"The firts country?" were my thaughts too. I'm certain other nations have already confirmed their places in the WC finals, France for example qualified a couple of weeks ago....

I may be one of the few on the board who consider DJs live music but the dance music scene in Japan, esp Tokyo is epic. And I'm not just referring to all the big name, 4000 yen cover charge joints like WOMB. There are a lot of bars around where DJs and producers get the chance to set up in corner and play original tracks and mixes

Most of the girls I know seem to know about as much as the "intelligent uni student" butterfly1 described. It absolutely astonishes me how little some girls know about their own bodies, STIs and birth control. Scary in fact

Thats a tough one. Its been a pretty good year for foreign music...not so much for J-music though. I thought was poor year on the domestic front. Deadmau5? MGMT? Kings of Leon? Bloc Party? couldn't narrow it down to one

RogueFive> Couldn't agree more. I was so shocked when I first learned that sex-ed wasn't taught in schools. And I soon noticed how much it showed. So many women know nothing about their own bodies, contraception etc that it is just startling

Forgot to mention all the awesome DJs on the dance scene! Some great house and trance music to be heard. Too many artists to list...
