If you dislike football you will most certainly get a kick out of the above video. I hate premier league football but I love watching the world cup and the euro, there is something about seeing country's going head to head that is really exciting. Its also not about who gets paid the most which helps. Not to say FIFA and the world cup are perfect....

Sweet Jesus dat Spain-Netherlands game. I have a feeling Spain is going to follow in the footsteps of 2006 cup champs Italy and fail miserably to make it out of the group stages.

Surprised the US actually won their first game. Can't wait to hear all the idiots here in 'Murica say we're gonna win the Cup.
The problem is we just don't have the talent to compete with the better countries. We can get away with cheap victories against smaller countries like Ghana, but when we catch a Germany or a Portugal (lol) on a good day we're fucked. The fact that most of our national players play in our domestic league speaks volumes about the quality of our players; don't get me wrong, the MLS is getting better with each passing year, but it's still the league that washed-up European players go to when they want to make a quick buck at the end of their careers.
It also doesn't help that our team has zero style. Seriously, our midfield play is just cringe-worthy.

I only watched the first half but Ghana were all over the USA, too bad for Ghana that the USA had unreal defense.

Bye bye England...
The Europeans (outside of the Netherlands and Germany) are having a rough tournament. Spain and England are out, Portugal got destroyed their first game, and Italy might have screwed themselves over with the loss to Costa Rica today.
It appears the Cup belongs to the South Americans this year.

we're not out yet. The odds are stacked against us and we will be out, but we are not yet.

Holland and Germany might be the only European team with a chance but what they a chance have! I even put £5 on a Holland and Germany final. As soon as Brazil play a good team in the knock out stages they will be put out. They couldnt even beat Mexico!
P.S. Dont discount Belgium or France

I'm quite bitter when it comes to football and I tend not to support a team but damn the other. For example the other day I wasn't supporting Ghana as much as I was damning the USA. But when it comes to Holland, I really hope they win. back in 2010, after England was knocked out by Germany (and the infamous goal that was clearly in but the linesman "didn't see") It was Holland I was routing for, all the way up to the final. It'll be the same again.

France may actually go pretty far judging by how they played today. I'm hoping Italy bring the hammer down on Uruguay and knock them out; mostly because Suarez is carrying what is otherwise a pretty unremarkable team, and I just can't stand Suarez as a player. He's great at scoring goals though.

Go on then MMCC, put your money where your mouth is, who is going to win? As much as I want Holland to win I am going to say Germany.

Not really sure about Germany any more after seeing that match against Ghana, but I still think they could at least make it to the final. I didn't really think about Colombia but you could be right, they have played very well. Might be worth a £2 bet because the odds are so good!lol
