I’m betting heavily on Sebulba.

Qui-Gon: “You don’t think Anakin will win?”
Watto: “Don’t get me wrong. I have great faith in the boy. He’s a credit to your race, but Sebulba there is going to win, I think.”

Watto: “He always wins. (laughs) I’m betting heavily on Sebulba.”

Ga oranje!
Hup Holland Hup!

Wij zijn Nederlands,
Wij zijn oranje,
Hup Holland Hup!

I weet dat het slecht nu kijkt, maar ik weet ook dat zij het doen kunnen. Wij houden van oranje voetbal.

Update: Damn Sebulba.

    • We wore orange. We came back early from our holiday to watch the game. We had gouda cheese even. It depresses me greatly

    • Karen

      Not enough orange carrots. :)

      Is this in reference to the now-over World Cup? I don’t speak Dutch, so I can’t even translate! We were rooting for the Netherlands, when we were watching the game whilst in Vegas.
