Can this please become a mega-thread? It ticks off several of the necessary, irrational check marks necessary to become one.
1. About a tall player with untapped potential that played for 35 minutes last year
2. From a small, bankrupt country who's glory years were two millenia in the past
3. Small country is known for ancient ruins and nude beaches
4. The small country uses a different alphabet
5. This alphabet looks really cool in translated statements
6. Could potentially start a Greek cuisine vs. Italian cuisine or Greek cuisine vs. Turkish cuisine discussion
7. The Greek cuisine vs. Turkish cuisine discussion could become an argument
8. This argument could overflow the realm of CF and start an actual shooting war
9. This war could tear apart NATO
10. Tearing apart NATO would give Russia free reign to conquer Europe
11. I welcome our new Slavic overlords (Я приветствую наших новых славянских аббатами)
12. Wait. Those two repeating digits in the last word look like sixes
13. What empire uses letters that look like numbers?
14. Boo! Down with new mega-thread!
Note: I actually really hope that Giorgos is back next year.
