World Cup predictions...

[muhnkee_2]

i read about this predictor in some magazine on a train, it uses a reverse engineered formula to predict who will win based on a combination of factors including gdp..

so not only does brazil win, but new zealand gets through to the second round!!!

Canada should win the world cup this year:

Hmmm! Now if they were playing on ice with a puck instead of a ball and sticks....

otherwise nah!

Saturday the USA had our first game of the World Cup against some country name Rooney. He/they/it was OK but his performance in Goal was a little disappointing

Germany all the way.

Or Brazil

Or Argentina. Because of the magician named Lionel Messi.

Anyone of these three I would be fine.

As long as the Vuvuzela loses.... Man they are annoying. It sounds like a hive full of bees buzzing non-stop.

I don't watch a lot of soccer on TV. I usually watch a few games when the World Cup comes around, but this buzzing sound is a total turn off.

The french-speaking telecast in Canada suppressed most of the crown noise which makes it a bit easier to listen.

The dutch network station, fortunately, did the same.....From what I understood, more european broadcasting stations followed this example as well.

OMG New Zealand has a World Cup point - which strangely enoughs keeps us equal with Italy in our group... well that's what I'm told not really up with this footy thing.

What I do know is we are currently donig better than Aussie, which is truly weird!

[jerome]

JAPAN all the way..

The English network shouwing the England V USA game. They surpressed the whole build up and scoring of our one and only goal by showing and advert for Hyundai. Man I was angry - I wouldn't have minded a Ford advert, but Hyundai! Phrwwaarr.

Hopefully there was no advertisment during the US goal. BTW, heard a report during lunch today that UK tabloids are reporting that Mr. Green's performance was related to his recent breakup with girl friend.

Well, I think Spain can be removed from the favorites - list after yesterday's performance.
Just two more games and they can go back to their sheep.

Perhaps the best players for Spain were out on strike because of a freaking 5% pay cut. Dirty Mexicans

[Snowy]

Portugal Vs Kora = 7-0.

Wow! 7 goals in 1 game! That is as many goals as 5 normal Soccer games!

[Ozfan]

I think you mean 10 games with the 0-0 draws...

Is the US still in this thing?

*Hmmm.. must be missing part of the sports section this morning... nope not here.. or here.. hmmm... maybe they cover this World Cup thingy in the Lifestyle or Culture section???*
