Go ahead, make fun of soccer. Never mind that 2 billion people will be watching it. Go ahead and tell me about “bread and circuses” …. as if you don’t have your favorite entertainment distraction. Surely — “don’t call me Shirly!!” — SOMEONE here played ute soccer, or have their own offspring-utes playing soccer …. not to mention all our overseas guests, and folks like El Burrito (go Mehico!!)
So, I actually created a Bracket Group on ESPN. It’s called “Village Idiots”, (really) and the motto is “Start the damn revolution”. You can use your SAME name as in the basketball bracket, otherwise, just create one on ESPN. It’s fast and easy. You can fill out as many brackets as you want. There’s no password. Just click the link below;
http://games.espn.go.com/world-cup-bracket-predictor/2014/en/group?groupID=40417
Just one quirk. If (and that’s a BIG if) you enter, you must choose ALL the teams for EACH round before going to the next round. That’s because, unlike basketball, not every team stays in the same group. Only the winner of a group stays in the same group, the second place team in a group goes to another group. It sounds complicated, but it’s not. Again, just complete each round in its entirety before going to the next round.
If you want to play, but you’re a Soccer Moron … here’s a little insider help for you.
First of all, do NOT judge a team according to the seedings. The seedings (and, rankings) are determined by FIFA, and it’s a complete and utter joke, trust me. So, below are the Groups, their ranking by the much more reliable Soccer Power Index (SPI), their chances of winning it all, and some Stucky commentary.
Note: The “odds” is an unusual and complicated system by oddsshark.com — about as reliable as any odds-maker out there. What you need to know: The LOWER the number (even into negative territory), the HIGHER the odds of that team winning it all.
First, here is a pictorial representation of the teams.
Teams below are listed in order of SPI ranking. The format is — (Team — SPI Ranking ——— Odds of Winning)
Group A
Brazil ………. 1 …… -400
Mexico …..… 26 ….. 900
Croatia …….. 31 ….. 800
Cameroon … 39 ….. 2500
BRAZIL — MORTAL LOCK!! Not enough that they’re the #1 team in the world, they are playing in front of wild-assed crazyfuk fans. They will get ALL the calls. Home field advantage in soccer is worth a .58 goal advantage … a HUGE number. They’re going to the FINAL game. You’re a dumbass, or fanatical fan of another team, to believe otherwise. Very many experts believe they should just give Brazil the trophy now, and be done with it.
MEXICO — Second place (the other team going to the next round) is a tossup between Mexico and Croatia. Mexico has been HISTORICALLY disappointing in the World Cup. They’ll have a big advantage over Croatia if the playing conditions are hot and humid. Croatians will have the advantage if there’s a head of lettuce growing on or near the playing field. I’m not picking Mehico to advance. I hope this pisses off El Coyote.
CROATIA – The Croats have one of soccer’s best midfielders, Luka Modric, who starts for the best team in the world, Real Madrid. The White House was built with Croatian limestones. Da boyz got stones. Pick ‘em.
CAMEROON — “Cameroon” comes from a Portuguese phrase meaning Shrimp River. It’s also Austrian for “No fucking way.”. The only ting they’re leaving Brazil with is the clap.
Group B
Spain ……..…… 3 ..….. -135
Chile ……..……. 5 …….. 225
Netherlands …. 9 ……. -400
Australia …..…. 53 ……. 3300
SPAIN — Mortal Lock. Probably the best team, top to bottom. A roster filled with All Stars. The Spanish team as currently constructed is considered one of, if not the best, national teams of all time. They won the last two Euro titles as well as the 2010 World Cup. The players can walk on water. The coach once fed an entire stadium, even though he had only 5 tacos and 2 sardines in his lunchbox.
CHILE — They are VERY long and skinny. Oh, wait …. that’s their country. Don’t underestimate this VERY good team …… except …. their star midfielder, Arturo Vidal, is just recovering from knee surgery. Without him playing very well, they’ll have a tough time taking 2nd place from the Netherlands.
NETHERLANDS — Was in the last WC final against Spain … where they played like cheap dicks. Even their own legendary player, Johan Cruyff, said they played “ugly, vulgar, hard, hermetic, hardly eye-catching, hardly football style”. Haven’t been playing great lately, getting trounced in the Euro 2012 tournament. If they can pull their dicks out of the dyke, they just might advance.
AUSTRALIA – Get some Brazilian pussy. Go home. Call it a good outing.
Group C
Colombia …..… 6 ….. -150
Ivory Coast ….. 18 ….. 400
Greece …….….. 23 ….. 400
Japan …………. 32 ….. 900
COLUMBIA —- Yet another very strong South American team. Many have Colombia as the tournament’s best underdog. Many years ago USA played Columbia in the WC. Some player scored an “own goal”. About two months after he returned to Columbia, he was murdered. Colombian players have a lot of incentive to not fuck up.
IVORY COAST — ANY of the other teams can advance to the next round. But, this team only appeared in two WCs and never advanced out of group stage. Not that it matters, but they make great soaps which float.
GREECE — 55% of the utes in Greece graduate with a four-year college degree, which is the highest rate in the world. 25% of them are unemployed and have beautiful hair. In ancient Greece, after a goal was scored, the opposing players would fuck their goalie in the ass. That’s all I know about Greek soccer.
JAPAN — I really don’t like Japs. They’re still hunting and killing whales. That wasn’t good enough for them, so now they want to kill everything in the Pacific Ocean. Plus, their women’s team beat the USA in the last WC final. Fuck Japan and their slanty eyes.
Group D
Uruguay ……. 8 ….. 180
England ……. 10 ….. 225
Italy ……..….. 13 ….. 150
Costa Rica …. 25 ….. 5000
URUGUAY — Jeezus, how many very good teams are there in SA?? But, this is a really tough group. However, they have waaay to many fuckin’ “U”s in their name. No country with that many “U”s has ever won it all. They rely on two super-duper players …. the rest of the team is rather average. They went as far as the semis in the 2010 WC, and won the 2011 COPA. They also lost to crappy teams. Which team shows up, nobody knows.
ENGLAND –— Is there a MORE historically disappointing team in the WC? Well, is there, punk? NO!! The Brits invented a word to describe their soccer teams …. WANKERS. I’m not picking them, evah.
ITALY — A historic European powerhouse. This year’s team is comprised largely with the same players from the last WC, four years ago. Translation … this team is OLD, in terms of soccer. They’ll advance, but only because Costa Rica sucks, and England Wankers always fuck up.
COSTA RICA — This country is sandwiched between Nicaragua and Panama, and yet somehow they don’t give a shit about baseball. Dumbasses. They also don’t care about soccer, and they have zero chance of advancing.
Group E
France ……..….. 7 ….. -125
Ecuador ……….11 …… 350
Switzerland …..22 ….. 250
Honduras ……. 33 ….. 3300
FRANCE — True story, google it; “French foreign intelligence services bombed Greenpeace’s ship, the Rainbow Warrior, on July 10, 1985. The ship was targeted to prevent it from interfering in French nuclear testing in the Pacific.” They BOMBED Greenpeace!! Why? Cuz the Greepeace ship had no guns. I don’t like the French. I’m not going to do a search to give you all a little tidbit. I don’t give a shit about that country. Arrogant little fuckers think swapping spit was their invention!
ECUADOR — Krist Almighty, another very good SA team. No analysis. Fuckit. I’m not picking them. Why? Cuz no way in hell will ALL South American teams advance. I gotta pick a scapegoat loser. Might as well be Ecuador. They’re used to it.
SWITZERLAND — This is the most interesting team in the entire field. German coach, several Germanic players = Germany Light. An interesting tidbit; unlike most teams, this team does not have a single “superstar”. If you like team-play, you’ll love this team. They lost only 1 of 18 games in qualifying. The Under-17 World Cup is an excellent indicator of a team’s future success. The Swiss won the 2009 Under-17 World Cup. You know who won the last World Cup? Spain. Do you know who was the only team to beat Spain? Yup, the Swiss. They’re more experienced, and better. Can they be THE Dark Horse this year? I think so. Once the USA gets booted, and should Germany falter, I will be cheering mightily for the Swiss.
HONDURAS –— Ever heard of the Soccer War? Yup. Honduras and El Salvador player three times in order to qualify for the 1970 World Cup. El Salvador won 2 of 3 games, and qualified. Honduras got to pick bananas, the people got vewy vewy angry, and fucked up a bunch of El Salvadorans via riots and general mayhem. Naturally, the Salvadoran military launched an attack against Honduras. Seems like a good response to me. The war only lasted 100 hours. However, it took another 11 fucking years for the two countries to sign a peace treaty. Ain’t that some funny shit?? Did you know they have the world’s highest murder rate? Honduras CAN advance out of group play …. but, only IF all the players are allowed to bring Glocks.
Group F
Argentina ……….. 2 .….. -400
Bosnia-Herz. ….. 14 …… 600
Nigeria ………..…. 28 ….. 800
Iran ……………….. 38 ….. 3300
ARGENTINA — South American …. fuckmedead!! … 2nd ranked team in the world …. Mortal Lock …. blah blah blah …. just pick ‘em all the way to semis.
BOSNIA-HERZ —- Amazing story that such a small and new country is so good at soccer. Did you know they have the only remaining jungle in Europe? It’s called the Perućica forest … has many trees that are 300 years old, and the forest’s vintage is stated to be 20,000 years. In some places the forest growth is almost impregnable. 10 more really truly fascinating facts about Bosnia here —- http://www.expatsblog.com/contests/799/top-10-crazy-things-about-living-in-bosnia-and-herzegovina#sthash.onfw30Kp.dpuf Pick ‘em!!
NIGERIA — here’s all you need to know … they lost last week to the USA, 2-1 … and it was much uglier for them than the score indicates. They suck Obongo dick. Also, someone from Nigeria is trying to scam you right this very moment.
IRAN — Iran???? WTF are they doing in the WC?? Good thing their first game, or any other, isn’t against Da Joos. I leave it to our own beloved ZARATHUSTRA to enlighten us on Iranian soccer. I’m betting Ahura Mazda was Player-Of-The-Year back in 24,678B.C.
Group G — The Group of Death
Germany ………. 4 …… -180
Portugal ………. 16 …… 275
United States … 17 …… 1000
Ghana …………. 24 …… 1200
GERMANY — Deutschland Uber Alles!!! Undefeated in the qualification stage ….. scoring 36 goals in 10 games ….. in the TOP 2 (or, 3) in offensive firepower ….. really, they don’t show any weaknesses at this point. Mortal Lock. Angela Merkel told the players if they lose, all of them will have to lick her pussy … after Obongo boinks her. This is a huge incentive to never lose, and that’s why I’m picking them to win it all. (Yes, I know they’re playing Brazil in Brazil.)
PORTUGAL — Just because Portugal’s national symbol is a chicken, doesn’t mean they will choke the chicken. Why? One name …. Cristiano Ronaldo …. pretty much unanimously considered the best player in the world. And the rest of the team ain’t to shabby either.
USA — this may be one of the best National Teams in a long while … young, fast, skilled, and with a World Class goalkeeper, Tim Howard . BUT, we got really FUCKED over by being placed in this group … thanks to FIFA’s totally corrupt and bullshit ranking system. If they get out of group play, I will call USA’s coach, Jurgen Klinsmann, — the great former German national player — and offer to lick his balls.
GHANA — there is no team in this year’s WC that I HATE/LOATHE/DESPISE more than Ghana … the team that knocked us out of the past two World Cups …. the last time by a last second goal in overtime. I hope half the team takes a dip in the Amazon and piranhas chew off their dicks, and the other half drinks the water and they get the shits … while playing. Not very sportsmanlike, I know. Don’t give a shit. G.E.S.
Group H
Belgium ………. 12 ….. -175
Russia ………… 15 ……. 200
South Korea … 37 ……. 750
Algeria .………..69 ……. 2800
BELGIUM —- what’s the FIRST thing you think of when Belgium is mentioned? I guarantee it’s either 1) legal drugs, 2) legal pay-for-pussy, or 3) waffles. They also have a powerful soccer team with a reputation as Giant Killers having beaten eventual World Cup winners; West Germany in 1954, Brazil in 1963, Argentina in 1982, and France in 2002. Betting against them, especially in group play, is just plain silly.
RUSSIA — Top Secret insider info what you need to know; Putin will be playing as a striker. A Mortal Lock for 2nd place. Did you know the land mass of Russia is equal to that of Pluto? Also, Russia is colder.
SOUTH KOREA — I mean, why allow Asian teams to play in the WC? It’s not like they EVER won the WC …. or EVER will. Nevertheless, I love our new Hyundai. Too bad they can’t play a similar quality of fussball. Goddamn, I love S. Korea’s president!!!! In response to criticism that the government botched rescue efforts during a ferry disaster that left more than 300 dead or missing, president Park Geun-hye announced plans to DISBAND THE COAST GUARD. Taking the bull by the horns and not ducking out?? That’s so … so …. soooo Un-Obama-ish!!!
ALGERIA — Fuckin’ Mooslims. WTF? Algeria’s national team name is the Fennec Foxes. Below is a Fennec Fox. Cuter than cute. But, using a Woman’s Method Of Choosing Teams — team colors and/or the mascot — I ask you; “Is this a mascot that could win at …. anything??” Those ears. Yikes! It looks like an animal created by the NSA. Not the worst team in the field, but absolutely zero chance of advancing.
==============================================
==============================================
It seems, from what I’ve read, that some (many?) Brazilians are pretty pissed off at the COST of these games, much of it (as usual) falling on those with the least amount of money. Still … Brazil is one country I’d love to see before I croak. It looks like such a beautiful and diverse country. Breathtaking, in many cases. Check it out …

And for you guys, except bb, they say Brazilian women are amongst the world’s most beautiful. I see no reason to dispute that.

“i do like the us chances against belgium, they are a beatable team” — harry p
Beatable maybe, but unbeaten at this point. Belgium have the best young goalkeeper in Europe (Thibaut Courtois) who IMO is better than Tim Howard. Edin Hazard who won Young Player of the Year in England. They also have experienced top notch defenders in Kompany, Vertonghen and Vermaelen.

“Verfluchte Arschlöcher !!!!” ……… “dammed assholes!!!”, my dad screamed every time the Germans fouled us. He left the room when the Germans scored, cursing the most blessed of German curse words, “SCHEISSE!!” It took me 15 minutes at the end of the game to explain we still made it through group stage.
I can’t afford the trip to Brazil. If Admin sets up a “Donate To Stuck” button, I WILL go to Brazil and lick Klinsmann’s balls, whether he allows it or not. It’s up to you guys.
The German trash tabloid “Bild” (picture) with the largest circulation in Europe had a blast TRASHING Klinssman and the Americans.
Headline reads “Klinnsmann, today you will stars”

The shit-rag also gives 5 things Americans do better than Germans,
—1) Eavesdropping
—2) Getting Fat
—3) Salvaging the Beautiful Life (saying the German team could be distracted if the USA showed reruns of Pamela Anderson on Baywatch.)
—4) Creating debt
—5) Excelling at marginal sports —- stupid sports like baseball and football which nobody cares about

” May 29, 2013 —- USA Falls to Belgium 4-2 in Cleveland”
http://www.ussoccer.com/stories/2014/03/17/12/35/usa-falls-to-belgium
.
After that game, an exhausted Tim Howard remarked how big the quality gap was between these two sides ….. “years”, he said.
Belgium is a team full of all-stars, playing for some of the best teams in the world.
They won all 3 games in qualifying … 9 points. BUT, they only scored 4 goals, beating each time by only one goal. They looked lackluster against weak Russian and Korean teams.
For the USA to have a chance they MUST improve; 1) their defense (send Bradley the fuck home”, and 2) control the ball better … too many unforced give-backs, and too many Hail Mary long passes.
This is a “weird” game in that I can see either a blowout or a close game. I think The Waffle Makers win by one goal.
Admin
1) Congrats.
2) Blow me.
3) Lucky bastard, NOW is the time to buy some Lotto tickets.
Yes Stucky, the Belgians scored only 4 goals BUT they only allowed 1 and that was a penalty kick.
BIGGEST SURPRISE
—– Spain, defending Champs getting their asses creamed
—– Greece, Costa Rica, and Algeria escaping group play
BIGGEST NON-SURPRISE
—– fucking horrible refs
—– Wanker Brits fucking up yet again
BEST GAME
—– USA vs Portugal
—– Mexico vs Brazil
BEST GROUP
—– G, The Group Of Death (Germany, USA, Portugal, Ghana), EVERY game was exciting
WORST GROUP
—– H, (Belgium, Algeria, Russia, Korea), boring shit all around, with even Belgium not being able to beat these Pretenders by just 1 goal each.
LUCKIEST FUCKING TEAM
—— Greece getting through with just two fucking goals
UNLUCKIEST TEAM
—— Ecuador
BEST TEAM PERFORMANCE
—— Iran …. giving mighty Argentina a BIG scare (0-1)
BIGGEST QUESTION
—— Is France really that good, or do they benefit from playing a weak group
—— Can Brazil continue to play so underwhelming and hope to win the WC?
BEST GOALS
—– Lionel Messi free kick ……… absolutely perfect
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9hD0uJxZ6s&feature=player_detailpage
—– Jermaine Jones’ equalizer against Portugal … a rocket shot from outside the penalty area
The Pretenders are gone. This is what’s left.
Europe (6 teams)
— Germany (4th ranked)
— France (7)
— Netherlands (9)
— Belgium (12)
— Swiss (22)
— Greece (23)
South America (5)
— Brazil (1)
— Argentina (2)
— Chile (5)
— Columbia (6)
— Uruguay (8)
North America (3)
— USA (17)
— Costa Rica (25)
— Mexico (26)
Africa (2)
— Nigeria (28)
— Algeria (69)
Asia (0) …. about 4 billion people and they can’t field 11 good soccer players. Ha!
After the next round is over … the Final 8 …. It will be a South American vs Europe WC
“Asia (0) …. about 4 billion people and they can’t field 11 good soccer players. Ha!” — Stucky
It couldn’t possibly be because Asian schools focus on academics and not sports, could it?
Pinche coyote, you have been hanging around these Gringos too long. Have you forgotten you were raised on beans and tortillas? Mexico will win 3 to 2. Then, if I feel like it, you can lick my balls, asshole.
you guys (cough) go on without me (cough, cough).
Mexico became complacent after their goal. Shame on them …. although the Netherlands had a say in it,
The ref was a FUCKING dick, and should banned to doing NFL games. The penalty at the end of the game …. IF it was one, and I don’t think it was ….. but IF it was one, it was a 50-50 call AT BEST …. and those kind of game-changing calls are NOT generally made with 2 minutes remaining.
That being said, that dumbfuk ref missed a clear penalty against the Beaners in the first half.
So, things turned out JUST AS THEY SHOULD.
Goodbye, Mexico. This poster won’t miss you at all.
never met a bad Dutch. my old boss let a lot of shit slide but when he got the chance, he fucked you but good.
they let Mexico wear themselves out. Ochoa made two mistakes, he was surprised by the right leg kick and then repeated the mistake, throwing himself in the same direction on the penalty.
I saw 19 against 13 and I figured, it’s over. 19 in my experience is an ominous number.
USA, USA, USA…..
North American and Beaner dreams will be still alive after Costa Rica trashes the fuckin’ lucky hapless Greeks.

MONDAY UPDATE
The Neegrow continent will be eliminated tomorrow.
Argentina will beat Nigeria.
Germany will beat Algeria.
This is TOO fuckin easy.
fuckme
make that …. FRANCE will beat Nigeria
(my mother could beat Nigeria)
Don`t care about soccer. Stuckeys pictures were really good, though.
Nigeria gone…Algeria is getting ready. I’m sure their bags are packed and ticket in hand.
Allah (fuck him to hell) almost gave the Algerians a victory.
But, the German God has a bigger dick than all other gods, and prevailed.

thanks to Germany for beating the inbred sandniggers. It will avoid us to kill a few of these animals as they burn cars in the streets.
Algeria is the biggest load of shit this planet has to bear
France has about 7.5 million immigrants, or 11% of the population …. with Algerians being Number One.

==================
Here is the gist of it …..
President Francois Hollande has sparked a diplomatic spat with Algeria after he joked in a speech to French Jewish leaders that his interior minister had made it back home from a trip this month to the north African state “safe and well, which is saying a lot”.
Mr Hollande was making a speech to the CRIF representative council of French Jewish institutions when he made the comment about Interior Minister Manuel Valls’ trip this month to Algeria, which suffered a civil war in the 1990s in which more than 150,000 people died and which is still prone to deadly attacks by an Al Qaeda offshoot.
“Hollande mocks Algeria in front of the Jews,” was the front-page headline in one Algerian newspaper at the weekend, while the former French colony’s Foreign Minister Ramtane Lamamra said on Saturday the remark was a “regrettable incident”.
Another HUGE game for USA soccer today. Belgium is CLEARLY the more talented team …. probably at every position except goalie. But, as this WC (and every other WC) has already shown, the team with the most talent doesn’t always win. ANYTHING can happen in a one-game do-or-die format. It’s not as if we have NO talent! We have a good team. We CAN win this game!
How sweet would it be if the Swiss UPSET Argentina in the second game!! Playing the Swiss to reach the Final Four is a majorly easier proposition than facing the Peronistas.
FUCK BELGIUM!!!!

There’s no better way to stick it to Belgium … than with SYRUP … so says Waffle House — which is calling for a full-on boycott of Belgian Waffles in support of Team USA soccer … TMZ Sports has learned.
Of course, USA is all set to face off with Belgium in the 2nd round of the World Cup tournament on Tuesday in a win-or-go home match … and Americans are hungry to show their support.
But according to Waffle House — they should start by staying away from the signature Belgian breakfast item … with a rep for the All-American restaurant chain telling us, “We support a boycott on Belgian Waffles.”
The rep adds, “We support America. We don’t support Belgian Waffles.”
Instead, WH says Americans should stick to American-style waffles (like the ones served at Waffle House) … because it’s the patriotic thing to do!
Let’s rename them:
FREEDOM WAFFLES
No real American gives a shit about soccer. It is a pansy game foisted on us by a bunch of East Coast liberal twerps who hate our country and want us to turn into Belgium. Sports originally developed as training for warfare. Any game that does not use your hands is a complete waste of time. It is a tedious, mind-numbing, boring way to spend a couple of hours. All you World Cup fans out there, don’t you realize YOU are the ones being played. And you don’t need to love soccer to score with Brazilian women, believe me (and they are every bit as hot as they look). Full stop.
Then again …. there are upsides to cheering for Belgian soccer

Belgium’s goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois plays for Athletico Madrid which won the Spanish La Liga Championship and finished 2nd in the Champions League. Tim Howard’s club Everton finished fifth in England and didn’t qualifiy for the Champions League.
If salary means anything. Courtois 2012 salary 3 million Euros, Howard’s 2012 salary 2.6 million.
Belgium is CLEARLY the more talented team …. at every position

racist?
if you had this kind of “diversity” in your country, you would open the south border to Mexicans, still feel lucky, and ask for more…
the plague is actually a softer option.
top “diversity” in the world, that brings wealth and peace everywhere:
– algerians
– roms (gipsies)
– albanians
– chechens
– georgians (from the east)
– kosovo’s
– somalis
– ivory coast
Heart Break City.
Belgium 2, USA 1 in the 30 minute over-time period.
Down 2-0, we scored in the 16th minute, and had great chances to score thereafter … especially Clint Dempsey’s shot …. the one great save by the Belgian goalie. USA put up a HELLUVA fight.
If they ever put together a video, “Greatest World Cup Games by a Goalie”, well Tim Howard’s performance today will be in the Top 3. What a BRILLIANT performance. He single-handily kept the USA in the game. Belgium could easily have scored 5 goals, or more.
USA could have won it in the 89th minute. How Chris Wondolowski missed a point-blank chip from 3 feet in front of the goal is a mystery.
I wonder if having Jozy Altidore would have resulted in a win.
Nevertheless, Belgium dominated the USA for most of the game. They are clearly the better team. Team USA has yet to crack the elite level …. i.e., like the teams left in the quarter-finals (except Costa Rica).
I think Klinsmann will get the team to elite level by the next World Cup. He’s a helluva good coach.
Except for Costa Rica (fuckin fluke) it’s once again a Europe-South America quarterfinal. I hope Belgium kicks the living shit out of pretty boy Messi and his boy-lovers.
It’s set!! The best games to come. They will all be close, I think. If Costa Rica can beat the Netherlands, then they are truly in great shape this cup. I doubt it. They played well, and beat some traditionally good teams but they were off, not what they usually are. Otherwise, the France-Germany game seems like it will be a very good one and close. Tough to call. I also have a feeling that Argentina is gonna have a pretty hard time beating Belgium, unless Messi, Di Maria, Iguain and Aguero put up a stellar performance. I can see Belgium taking it. Brazil may not make it past Colombia, but they do have Neymar and they haven’t won 5 times as a coincidence. Taking tradition into account, Brazil should win, but tradition and statistics don’t play the game.
Glad this shit is over. Back to our regularly scheduled baseball season.
belgium was more talented, one of the fastest teams i have seen. argentina will have issues with them.
howard played an amazing game, anyone who says otherwise is dumber than that average obama voter, the announcers said he had almost twice as many saves as any other goalie in a single game in the last 50 years (since that stat has been recorded in WC games). i am sure there will be stories tomorrow regarding it. once again the US still lacks that one player who has a true nose for the goal.
sorry stucky but fuck that list, neuer is very good the 2 best goalies of the tournament were howard and mexico’s goalie who isn’t even attached to a club team (he will likely receive a big payday in the near future).
I think many are hoping for an argentina/brazil final but i don’t see that wet-dream happening.
i’ll be cheering for the netherlands and then the germans.
My enthusiasm for soccer just this year has made me suspect at work and at home. Is there a place for a beaner who likes soccer but hates baseball and gave up on basketball recently? And fuck football, I’d rather watch 6 hours of NASCAR and I don’t even like that, unless it’s the car races in the desert.

Well, in general, I’m guessing no. Which explains why you’re here. We tolerate such aberrations from the norm. Heh.
Iran is out, who the fuck cares? On to college football season. Go Ducks!!
To be called an “annoying little prick” by Stucky is truly a compliment.
As much as it pains me to slay this … Stucky’s list of the 10 top goal keepers is out of date by at least a year. The #1 goalkeeper, Iker Casillas, sat on Real Madrid’s bench most of the season. He only got into 2 La Liga games. If Victor Valdes (Barcelona) had not got hurt at the end of the season it is most likely he would have played in all of Spain’s WC games. One of the reasons Spain lost was because Casillas sucked.

I felt bad after calling you a little prick …. so, I pulled up a list with that Belgium goalie …. to show that you are the true genius of this thread.
Anyway, ALL such lists are pure opinion …. good for bragging rights ….. GREAT for starting arguments.
One of the best “best player arguments” is over pro basketball ….. the best player ever …. to which I say, it’s Oscar Robinson.

BINGO!! Same choices, just reversed. Also … anyone but Brazil.
Trust me Stucky, I have been called a lot worse.
Although I think Brazil will win it, I am cheering for Belgium because they are the underdogs.

Current odds of winning the world cup from BWin.
Brazil 13/4 , Germany 7/2, Netherlands 9/2, Argentina 5
France 8, Belgium 12, Colombia 14, Costa Rica 50
At this stage all teams are close to equal and anything can happen. No team has looked unbeatable. One stupid mistake or one referee’s decision can end it for the unlucky team.
France – Germany : Stucky is taking Germany who couldn’t put Algeria away in 90 minutes. Just because I am an annoying prick I will take France. I wouldn’t be surprised if this game goes to a shootout.
Brazil – Colombia : Colombia has been playing great, Brazil hasn’t. This game could go either way. To annoy Stucky I will take Brazil to win it because they have more talent and are playing at home. I may regret that decision.
Argentina – Belgium : At the beginning of the tournament I would have said Argentina for sure. Like Brazil they haven’t been playing to their potential. Belgium has a very solid defense that will be tough to beat. The odds say Argentina, I say Belgium.
Netherlands – Costa Rica : Don’t write off Costa Rica too quickly. They won their group which also had Uruguay, Italy and England. Netherlands are playing well and scored the most goals so far which is why I believe they will win.
