World Cup

<p>yea true, they are overrated in fball...and british food for the most part is disgusting in my opinion, just fish and chips are cool with me lol...however if not england...</p>

<p>I root for deutschland...</p>

<p>isn't it kinda interesting that we basically never really hear anything about a lot of countries, but once the world cup begins, we all come to recognize a few we never thought existed...haha...just me contemplating</p>

<p>oh yea there was this really awesome cartoon in Newsweek today where it shows the earth and a huge football right next to it and it asks "what does the earth revolve around?" (if you answered the sun, you are probably american)...check it out</p>

<p>good joke...ok I'm done blabbering, g'night</p>

<p>There goes the US.......sadly besides the Dempsey goal....the only real highlight of the game was the newsflash about the Isiah Thomas and the New York Knicks, an organization run so poorly there should be books about it by now......</p>

<p>USA blew.. and those ghana boys can PLAY!</p>

<p>anyways...
LET'S GO KOREA!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>GO KOREA!!! I hope we advance from our group. I visited Zurich once and took a wonderful train ride through Montreux but I hope the Swiss fall.
Anyways, nice try USA... maybe in 2010.</p>

<p>Aw... Korea's out. Oh well, I guess I can cheer for French. Zidane truly deserves another show on the pitch. Vive Les Bleus!!!</p>

<p>yeah... i hope spain destroys switzerland.</p>

<p>VIVA LES BLUES ._______.''' wth heck are u thinking trying to cheer for the country that tried to beat us! ROOT FOR NETHERLANDS OR AUSSI KOREANS!! AKA GUS HIDDINK IS FROM NETHERLAND AND COACHES AUSSI!!</p>

<p>We (Australia) tied Croatia 2 - 2 --errr! Next stop Italy (my family is from Australia). Go Socceroos.</p>

<p>Argentina 2-1 Mexico</p>

<p>Argentina vs Germany next. I think the winner between those two will win the World Cup. </p>

<p>As for Brazil...nope...not this time. </p>

<p>P.S. Ronaldo is too fat.</p>

<p>I'm now rooting for Spain, and I hope they go all the way. However, they have some obstacles ahead of themselves.</p>

<p>I think they have a good shot at beating France. Spain has been performing very well lately. (The last game they played against Saidi Arabia was won using mostly the current second string players. However, Spain really slacked during their second half so I think that's their biggest weakness.) However, I think that Brazil will also make it to the quarterfinals. Now that would be a game: Spain vs. Brazil.</p>

<p>Shame on you Reeses. I thought you were my friend! Rooting for Spain against France! hehe! Seriously, if I am any good at analyzing the game, I'd say France will beat Spain and Brazil. But I agree Mightynick, if France cannot get its offense in high gear, I favor the winner of the Germany vs Argentina game to win the tournament. Let us wait and see!</p>

<p>Alexandre: LOL. I am your friend! :) However, I'm your friend that roots for Spain! ;)</p>

<p>Germany is going to win, hands down, they have one of the strongest line ups i've seen in a long time, plus home field advantage</p>

<p>I forgive you reeses. I am not one to hold a grudge! Oh well, in 72 hours, we'll know whether to say vive la France or viva Espana! hehe</p>

<p>On a side note, you do realize that the way the French cheer for their soccer team is by saying "allez les bleus" which means "let's go blue". Are you sure you won't cheer for France now! Let us face it reeses, Michigan and France are natural allies! LOL</p>

<p>WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO ENGLAND WINS AGAINST ECUADOR!!!!!!! They played pretty crappy actually..Thank God for Beckham and his sweet free kicks...</p>

<p>I'm bettin England vs Portugal up next</p>

<p>Beckham's penalty kick did it for England but Rooney is going to be the key to English victory what with Owen out for the World Cup.</p>

<p>terrible game against the Portugese. If luck wasn't involved, the Netherlands would have won. :(</p>

<p>Alexandre, nice try! LOL. However, I'm not budging. I'm still rooting for Spain. :)</p>

<p>beckham is sooooooooooooo nice. and who was that girl sitting next to his wife?! she was HOT!</p>

<p>no.....beckham is crap. he does nothing apart from cross balls into the penalty box and take set pieces. </p>

<p>Rooney is the real deal!!</p>
