<p>Yes, but once you’re on appeal, then you play during the judgment process. And I think that he’s going to be appealing the length of the punishment, too. </p>
<p>And it doesn’t matter who’s on the lawyer’s back, FIFA’s the only thing that lawyer is worrying about. And his paycheck.</p>
<p>Then, the Uruguayian government should suspend him. Uruguay is under a lot of pressure now. </p>
<p>They’re not going to do that. Their citizens are going to mob them.</p>
<p>Kompany is uncertain against the USA, while Jozy Altidore should return. </p>
<p>My picks:
Brazil 2-1 Chile
Colombia 3-0 Uruguay
France 3-2 Nigeria AET (although I can see it going the other way)
Germany 4-0 Algeria
Netherlands 3-1 Mexico
Costa Rica 2-0 Greece
Argentina 2-0 Switzerland
Belgium 1-2 USA AET</p>
<p>There’s no way Nigeria can beat France. That’s delusional.</p>
<p>The World Cup is a crazy place, @mrnephew </p>
<p>I understand that, but France-Nigeria is the most one-sided game in the whole Ro16. </p>
<p>@mrnephew Not Netherlands-Mexico?</p>
<p>Nope. Mexico’s actually pretty good. Giovani Dos Santos… That dude is boss.</p>
<p>On to extra time. Great first match to the Round of 16. </p>
<p>This was a very exciting game</p>
<p>Poor Chile :(</p>
<p>Screw Neymar’s crappy PK. That should have been disallowed. </p>
<p>@Hawkace psh there was nothing crappy about Neymar’s PK <3 the awkward shuffle he did before kicking was hilarious though.
I felt so bad about that last PK from Chile though… that guy must be crying somewhere right now.</p>
<p>The awkward shuffle is illegal, I think. I’m pretty that you have to take the PK in one stroke. </p>
<p>No, that “stutter” may be “unsportsmanlike”, but is legal, or so I’m told. </p>
<p>I think the rule has changed a bit over the last few years.</p>
<p>“Should This Move Be Banned?”</p>

<p>@Shrinkrap It should be illegal. It’s really unfair to the keeper, whose has to decide which direction to go to. </p>
<p>Otherwise Ronaldo’s PK’s and free kicks would always be disallowed.</p>
