World Cup

<p>If North Korea wins I’ll toss out the Nobel Prize I won last year and clip off the fully formed (functional) wings I was born with.</p>

<p>Actually, I do see some possibility for Kim Jong Il’s side after Portugal’s shotty performance today against Cape Verde.</p>

<p>EDIT: Nevermind, I forgot about Ivory Coast lol</p>

<p>hahaha Zidane is infamous for headbutting that one Italian player (he deserved it though…he was talking trash about his mom & sis lol).</p>

<p>Zidane is a legend.</p>

<p>Sans Zidane, France isn’t getting past quarters this summer.</p>

<p>Lets go Spain! Lets go Brazil! Lets go Argentina! wo0h0o! :)</p>

<p>I predict that the final will be Brazil vs Spain. If that is the case then I root for Brazil!</p>

<p>yayay GERRRMANYYYYY</p>

<p>I think its funny how people think Mexico’s gonna win it all. legit</p>

<p>Ewww. Soccer…</p>

<p>Ewww. You. How dare you don’t like soccer >:[</p>

<p>Pssshhhh…good point.</p>

<p>I still like soccer. :)</p>

<p>Hahaha I was in France when the French (and Zidane) WON!! When the world cup was held in France. It was freaking awesome! Well, I was only 10 but I remember running out into the streets and there was this big party and everyone was drinking champagne. </p>

<p>This round, I’m going with Argentina!</p>

<p>We need a World Cup pick’em on Yahoo! I’ll make it now.</p>

<p>There it is. We might need to make a thread about it to get more publicity. For now it will let you pick the round-robin games (don’t forget to pick the scores; bonus points!) and then you’ll have to do knockout round when that’s all set and ready to go.</p>

<p>Hey, if you don’t know anything about soccer but are looking for a reason to watch and root for teams, join and use eloratings or FIFA ratings (or just pick your favorite flags!) to win.</p>

<p>Italia all day. I will paint my face with the color of the Italian if Italy wins. Or gets to the finals.</p>

<p>Sorry 2010 hopeful, I don’t think that “because they count backwards” is a good reason to hate soccer…</p>

<p>One thing is for sure, no England or US anywhere near the final (England will get closer to the finals than the US though)</p>

<p>Suprised no one mentioned Holland, they might do good because they have picked the right squad and most of the players are in good form. As far as other heavyweights like Brazil, Argentina and Italy go, they have picked poor squads, many bad players have been prefered over good ones. They might not go more than quarterfinals and maximum of semis. I expect Serbia, Denmark, Uruguay and Ghana to spring a suprise. English will go in the quaterfinals and get knocked out and blame on some decision. Spain might emplode due to pressure because they dont perform well when they are favourites.</p>

<p>2010, you traitor! lol</p>

<p>^^Well, Ghana is the Brazil of Africa. . . .</p>
