(In addition, I've included a useful phrasebook geared to the American traveller in one of the colorful local dialects. This doesn't contain the usual crap, like "What is the best museum in town?", but rather everyday conversational American terms, such as "Where is the nearest gun store?", "Why don't you foreigners speak American like everybody else?", "Can I get super-size fries with that?" or "You can't talk to me that way, I'm an American, damnit!!")
What this site is NOT, is a good source of up-to-date news on players, matches or even clubs. There are obviously better sources for that, although learning German might be a good first step. And it is not an unbiased review either, since I'm writing from the perspective of a fan. If you don't like it, don't read it.
So, Auf gehts!
