World Cup, bitches
 

Maybe I'm just so into soccer because I'm really good at it.


Anyways, World Cup. Who watches it, who just brushes off the recaps?
Who do you want to win, who do you think will win?
Who do you hate?
Slander away!


Anyways, I'm obliged to want England to win, because if I dont, my brother-in-law (who's English, duh) will skin me alive. Other than that, I want Serbia & Montenegro to win, just because it's not a country anymore. So I think it would be awesome to see them try decide which country won it, because they split up after qualifying for the world Cup.

I don't watch, but a coworker of mine took off work on Friday to watch it. He's from Mexico so he's a big Mexico fan naturally.

LETS GO SWEDEN!

Re: World Cup, bitches
 

Sweden has a soccer team?

Did they put it together themselves?



Sadly, thats the best I can do. :(

Re: World Cup, bitches
 

I have a gut feeling Brazil WON'T win, mark my words fellow GT people.

My 2 teams I am supporting are Australia and Italy. Should be interesting how Australia goes.

Are there any German members on GT? God your country must be going off right now!

My cousin lives in England, and scored tickets to this thing a year ago or something. So yeah, go England.

Re: World Cup, bitches
 

Sweden actually has a few good players. I was talking to my dad about some of the teams, and since he is really into the European and English leagues, he was telling me about all of the players from the English league teams that are on the different teams in the world cup. Apparently Sweden has a really good Striker, but that's all I remember at the moment.

Ha, no, I know. They're not bad.


I think it's a joke how the US is ranked 4th in the world. They're not even close. It's because Fifa has a stupid way of ranking. They determine by games played in your area, and win percentage, or something. So obviously The US doesnt have much competition, considering it's really just Canada, Mexico, and some Island countries.

Thank god fifa recognized this and is changing the rule next year.

The first Dutch match sucked.... it was hot and slow... and Dutch gameplay is boring to watch.

I missed our guilds first Nefarian (big bad-ass dragon) kill! :mad:

Re: World Cup, bitches
 

One thing i cant stand about soccer is if one player gets tripped or something by another, he acts as is his leg is broken and then is up and playing 5-10 minutes later. They over act the injury so much.

Re: World Cup, bitches
 

Yeah I hate that too.
Watch the german soccer training btw: http://www.ongein.nl/ongein/item.aspx?id=4451

Re: World Cup, bitches
 

I saw a segment on the news which poses the question of when people are going to stop making fun of Germany for losing WWII at the World Cup.

Re: World Cup, bitches
 

That'd be either Larsson who plays for Barcelona, Ibrahimovic who plays for Juventus, or Allback who plays for FC Copenhagen....maybe Ljungberg from Arsenal.

...and I think Typh's joke was about how IKEA is a Swedish company and you usually have to put the furniture together yourself...which I did yesterday actually ( a cabinet).
