Hoping for a among the Many appealing aspects of the world cup Here Are several of he most prominent a 1. Games take two hours to play. No rain delays no to timeouts nothing to Stop the clock. Youth in you re out you Haven to had to take out a mortgage on your seat. 2. Superstars deliver. You sit Down to watch Ken Griffey jr., he s liable to go 0 for 4. As often As not his teammates win. The game. In soccer the Best players carry their teams most of the time. If you sit Down to., Sec Romario or Roberto Baggio you re probably going to see a  3. The coaches Are civilized. Brazils Carlos Alberto Parreira said after one game that his team a played with great  imagine Mike Ditka spitting that out. Italy s Arrigo Sacchi said Friday that a when you coach you make errors therefore criticism is  please someone fax that to Johnny Oates a 4, All together now a  a it is the second reason we re talking about today the reason that brings us to the big question hovering Over the cup As Italy and Brazil prepare for sundays final in the Rose bowl whither the most famous hamstring in the world right now the one Baggio pulled in the second half of Talys a semifinal Victory three Days ago Sacchi said Friday that there was no change in the situation that Baggio was not going to practice or exercise or do anything More than watch Hob yesterday that perhaps there will be news when Baggio tests the Hammy this morning. Sacchi also said that it was t surprising that Baggio had pulled the muscle because the hamstring a is in the first group of Muscles that resents a High level of  if the news when it comes is bad if Baggio can to play or is even limited a if Baggio Isnit Baggio a you can Start ringing up the a  for Brazil for those who doubt it please refer to reason no. 2 on the above list. As much As soccer zealots rattle on about tactics and cohesion and heart As the essence of the game lets face it someone has to put the Ball in the stinking net every once in awhile or wed never get to go Home. And Baggio is just about the Only italian doing any  has scored five of Italy a eight goals in the gup in other words his 21 teammates have combined for three goals in 480 minutes of soccer. World cup commentary in the world cup every team is essentially the Chicago bulls with Michael Jordan. You go As far As your Jordan takes you. Romario is brazils Jordan. He has scored five of brazils 11 goals including the game win nor in the semifinals. Baggio is Italy a Jordan and Italy a Scottie Pippen too a. As important As Romario has been on his club Baggio a Impact has been greater. True he was a bust in the first round in which he failed to score. But since then he has been the whole team Italy was about to lose to Nigeria in the second round when Baggio tied the score with a Goat in the 88th minute then won the game in overtime when he was fouled in the Penally Box leading to a penalty kick. In the quarterfinals Italy and Spain were about to go to overtime when Baggio scored in the 88th minute. In the semifinals Baggio punched out Bulgaria by himself with two goals. A we will obviously lose something without him a Sacchi said a but we do have other  in other words a if his hamstring does no to Stop resenting fatigue in the next 36 hours i just might cry a of course it is difficult to determine the True seriousness of any injury in a sport in which it is not uncommon to Sec a player writhe on the ground in Teeth clenched agony for five minutes then leap up and sprint downfield with the freshness of a Fawn. This whole thing could be a smoke screen or very serious or somewhere in Between. Its hard to Tell. In any Case Here a hoping the Hammy is healed and Baggio is at full strength tomorrow. Who  want to see these two Settle the Issue of which player is the Best in the world they re a study in contrasts to say the least. Romario is arrogant outrageous petulant. Baggio is so shy and Humble that he has yet to appear on an interview podium after a game. Romario is a specialist strictly a goal scorer. He does no to play defense and rarely sets up teammates Baggio is a Complete player a Clever play maker and a solid defender As Well As a dangerous scorer. A Baggio can dribble Between All 11 players and score a italian midfielder Antonio Conte said Friday. And Romario a the can win the game by himself a midfielder Nicola Berti said. Baggio and Romario.
