I thought the Argentina match was quite good. Except for the Nigerian Goaltender it would have been 4-0.

Are we talking hockey?

Last night my friend bet on 3 games.
He placed $10 and got a return of $615.
Lucky so and so!

Burn on the Slovaks. NEVER sit on a 1 - 0 lead.

had the family over and were watching a game yesterday afternoon...my mom made us turn the channel because the sound of those stupid horns were driving her nuts.

The horns are driving everyone nuts. It wouldn't be so bad if they were used when celebrating a goal or when there's a near miss but it's just continuous.

maybe its because of the 1.6 goals per game...people are just trying to keep themselves occupied?



just kidding. i like soccer for the most part.

The ref is screwing up this Portugal/Ivory Coast game, he's very inconsistent.

us brits are fluent in bollocks when it comes to cricket

dunkman

but not so fluent in quoting.

plus its ok to use England only in reference to cricket... 99.9% of Scotland, N.Ireland and Wales couldnt give a shit about it... and rightly so. It's a posh version of baseball with a scoring system that even Rain Man gave up on and went back to calculating the vastness that is Kerry Katonas front bum as that was easier.

Although the England (ECB) team is actually the England and Wales cricket board team

I like cricket

Yeah, he cannot stay on his feet, it's annoying. Strong finish for Ivory Coast, wish they could have gotten a win.

6 draws out of 13 games. that is kinda boring :oops: :oops:

but i do think thats due to cautiousness... if you lose your first game you're normally screwed.

As the games move foward the intensity will pick up starting with the USA on Friday. Hopefully some mastery from Brazil, love watching them play.

The opening games are usually like that, and to be honest I've really enjoyed a lot of those draws. It will get more exciting now though. Teams have no choice but to go and win now.

nuffingman

Hopefully Brazil will put on a show tonight.

They need to do away with the group stage or they need to make it so they play everyone in the group twice.
