have to agree with that, BIG TIME.

well i really think Brazil is closest to winning, but i'd really like to see Italy do it this time even though they don't play that good.
or i would like to see a new team wins this time, someone haven't won before i mean. you know for a change.

Favorites to Win the World Cup has to be Brazil, Germany( just for sake of playing home), France( they are starting to heat up at the right time), England( they are deep team, with two of the most talented player in the world...Lampard and Gerard).


Dark horses.... Iran, Paraguay, Ivory Coast, Tunisia and Ghana....


Worst teams... Saud Arabia, Costa Rico, US( couldn't beat Morroco's subs at home), Trinidad Tobboco, Togo, Angola, Ecuador....

3 red cards in one match , i think he was not helping the game between US and Italia . US played really good with 9 players.

Tomorrow we are having some tough and kool matches. I dont think France gonna win ...... :P

Love to see ronaldinho :) .

Last weekend i was in UK and i havent seen a house without British Flage. Almost all cars were wavin flages. Pubs were packed . People gone crazy in UK :)

Italy vs. USA - The referee should have been sent off. Otherwise an exciting game.

i wonder why people are not talking about argentina..

all equations and predictions must have changed having seen the game of argentina vrs. serbia.

they have some very good mid-fielders and strikers... if they get on the field all together, nobody would have the speed or skill to stop them.

the way the teams are performing, i predict germany would meet argentina in the finals.

I think the Brazil/Australia match was quite disappointing in the end. Sure Brazil won 2-0 but the aussies put up a ral fight for it.

TNT aren't bad on the defence at all, they played very well against England.

France are doing really poorly this time round.

Oi Liban - Don't forget Greece also won Eurovision after Euro 2004 and hosting Olympics so it was 3 out of 3 - nah nah nananananana!

Ghana is missing their 3 key players at midfield... Stephen Esse, Ali Sulley Muntari, Stephen Apiah and striker Gyan Asmoah. I think the Americans have huge chance, but I'm cheering for the African team to make it to the second round.


The only team I want to be eliminated are the arrogant Italians...I'm okey with Czech, Ghana and even Americans who have shown heart against the Italians.

By the time you arrive in NYC the big news will be about the USA qualifying. Don't forget my slice of pizza.

George wouldn't know a soccer ball from a basketball, football, baseball, etc. (eventhough he owned a baseball team)! FYI it takes only one vote (additional) to elect a president in the USA...
