That wasn't a stutter tactic, that was a run up to the ball and come to a complete stop tactic. Usually, ROnaldo keeps a forward motion going, but not yesterday. I would have been very curious to see if the ref would make him take it again had he scored, because that was an illegal penalty.

As my Portuguese brethern was stepping up the spot, I was saying out loud,

"Don't be the goat, don't be the goat, don't be the goat!!"

Then I let out a big FFFFFF..........

Then Nani steps up and told my buddies, watch, two Pork chops are gonna be the goats.....thank god he scored and a BIG THANK YOU TO JOHN TERRY!!!! Although, my heart does go out to you. God, soccer can be such a cruel game. I re-watched the 99 final highlights, good god, imagine you were a bayern fan. 1 minute, you're on the fast track to European glory, 2 minutes later, it is ripped from your hands with no chance of winning it in extra time.
