    American broadcast: Left back passes to center, back to the left, back to the center. Center holds it. Holds it. Holds it.

    That was one of the funniest Simpsons bits ever.

    Krusty called them something like "Schnoorers".

    Translated by a Deadspin commenter. Sadly, TV Azteca and whomever have been making the rounds and I can't find it on YouTube anymore. One of those days I wish I spoke Spanish.

    I forgot about that one too.. I'm crying over here from laughing.

    I just looked it up - the line after Homer's Portugal line was:
    It's hard to believe this used to be an internment camp.


    And then the announcer:
    You'll see all your favorite soccer stars. Like Adiaga! Adiaga two! Badiaga! Aruglia! And Pizzoza!

    That also has another great line later on, after Bart finds Homer's gun. "I hid it in the safest place I could Marge. I mean, what are the odds the boy's gonna look in the vegetable crisper?"

    I'm behind on news, but I think Panama was mad about the Mexico win:
