THIS IS A SCHWEINSKI POST.
The World Cup is only a couple of days away. And when it comes to bromances,
this is one that tends to show up in big tournaments. Not only do they have
amazing on-the-pitch & off-the-pitch chemistry, these two define the word
adorkable (if there isn't already a definition for it, it belongs to Schweinski now).
If you were to say they are the KINGS of BROMANCE...
You'd be right.
They're so amazing, that they attract even
non-German NT fans into their web of adorkableness.
Hell, if there was a World Cup given for the Best Romance, you can bet
your ass that they'd win it (sit down, other bromantic relationships).
Note: BEFORE YOU ENTER THIS SPAM OF AWESOME BROMANCENESS --
you need to know that this bromance might just harm your computer.
If you are viewing this from an iPod, or other mobile device - it will crash.
These pictures/gifs will take a while to load.. so open this page, go take a bathroom break or something.. and come back :)
Thanks so much to
tweedie for providing HQ images!

LOOK AT THEIR FACES. THIS IS WHAT BROMANCE LOOKS LIKE.
(also what awkward teenage years look like)
The point is, this bromance started when they were awkward looking bbs with bad haircuts.
They were so special, that they were called up to the senior squad together.
Even the DFB knew you couldn't call up one without the other.
Even as bbs, they couldn't keep their hands off each other.

So when scoring against Brazil in the Confederations Cup in 2005, who did Poldi run to?
Schweini ofcourse.
Sadly there was no video footage of this.. but photos still show this event taking place.
And against Tunisia, there was a Schweinski goal (these goals tend to be special).
But what followed shortly after the goal, was a defining moment in their bromantic relationship.
THE DORKY HANDSHAKE CELEBRATION
♥
Schweini returned the favour by assisting a Poldi goal in the game against Mexico.
The Confederations Cup was a success for Schweinski (even with a third place finish).
They've been going strong since.
And stalkerish cameras caught most of it.
They always have fun in training.
when Poldi isn't checking out other guys.
They're such weirdos.
even if it's in indoors.
Poldi likes making fun of Schweini's hair.
while Schweini tends to joke about Poldi's thighs.
this may or may not originate from a certain Japanese tv show.
They help each other when in need.
even if one of them is getting carded.
even if it means just being there to bring a smile to your face.
A special relationship like theirs means their hugs are special.
VERY SPECIAL.
♥
Poldi lets Schweini piggy-back ride him.
(no pun intended.. both ways)
They celebrate each other's birthdays.
They had some good times in Bayern together.
But even when playing against each other, they still manage to stay adorable.
before the match..
during a match..tsk tsk tsk
after the match..
aww ♥
They like sitting next to each other.
(the U21 coach in 2009 even likes them)
in their spare time, they travel together..
relax together..
play basketball together..
Have fun at press conferences together
get photographed together
get GQ SportsMAN of the year awards together..
(even Germany consider them as one)
whisper secrets to eachother..
And at starting lineups.. you can bet they're together too -- always appearing last.
FIERCE & SMILEY
(look at that little kid -- he can't stop staring at them! maybe he's scared that Poldi will squish his ears too?)
the kids can't stop staring how awesome they are.
So here's to keeping traditions!
2006
2008
and general adorkableness
They will remain the Kings of Bromance
(..well maybe in German NT atleast)
to the old,
and to the new (kind of)..
Schweinski will always remain as something special ♥
and y'all, this was sometime early 2010..
so they're still alive!
unless.. you know.. Holger, Ozil or Gomez skrew things up.
So that's all from me.. for now folks. There was still a lot of Schweinski that I didn't end up posting, so..
~SPAM AWAY!
