Diego Forlan will destroy them.

Plus, their centrehalf pairing are Victorino and Fucile! RESISTANCE IS FUCILE!

I put one hundred bucks on USA for tomorrow. Just in case.

[Dan]

Wow, if you're pissing money away, could always send me some.

[Meacon Keaton]

I bet that's what the English said in 1950, too!

[Dan]

I bet you Ellis that England win.

[Meacon Keaton]

I could use an Ellis...

[King Ellis]

Oh boy, I get to go and live in America!

[Farmer Reil]

We don't have to go back 60 years for a jab at you though.

Besides, didn't you finish bottom of that group?

[EddieG]

France are shit, but Uruguay only JUST qualified, needing a play-off like France and I just think France will see them off.

Yeah, France had an easy qualification, so easy they needed Henry to do a Maradona.

Now, now. No need to get ye' trousers in a twist over some mindless, good-fun smacktalk. I'm well aware that we are probably going to lose tomorrow, but I put the money down as a "Just in case". Stranger things have happened in the tournament. Should we happen to win, not only can Pris, DMN, and I gloat like idiotic Americans, but I'll be that much richer. If not, no harm, we weren't suppose to win anyway.

Where did I say that? I just think France are stronger than Uruguay, 'tis all.

[Liam]

BAFANA BAFANA!

[Farmer Reil]

I was just having fun in kind.

Gah... so torn. If Mexico win, France are much more likely to go out... but... South Africa!

SOUTH AFRICA! SHABLALALA!

[Dan]

GOOOOOOAAALLLLLLLLLLLL

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

I've got France and South Africa going through but A is by far the hardest group to predict, nothing would surprise me really.

[Liam]

Cracking finish by the lad. Glad they are winning as well, cos I was toying with a Mexico/Uruguay double, so didn't want that to come out since I didn't back it >_>

[EddieG]

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

By the way, anybody know why Hernandez isn't playing?

[GoGo Yubari]

Man, is that really his name? That is awesome. I'm pulling for South Africa for the whole home country sentimental thing and because I have somehow decided that supporting Mexico is supporting Powerhart and I just can't do that.

[Dan]

Well, my accy could be over at game #1, oh well, go SA!

[IAceI]

If only I was still at the newspaper where I've interned for a few days. I was laughed at when I claimed South Africa will make it out of their group.
