Courtesy of Deadspin, two memorable headlines from The Sun and The Daily Mail, about the English getting crushed by Germany yesterday in South Africa. I'm sure all the tabloids there have their knives out today.
The Daily Mail headline reminds me of a memorable line from the classic comedy, "Taxi," and the great Louie DePalma, dressing down the cab drivers:
"If you guys had been at Normandy, we'd all be eating strudel right now."
Glad to see they took it so well
