Lol ofcoarse the arugment works...But it doesnt matter, like I said to some of my Brazilian brothers this morning. Seemed as if both had some first game jitters and played superb in their second attempt. Thats really all I wanted to point out.

If anything the World Cup shows more of the "any given Sunday" rule than nearly any sport. There has been many shockers and the fact our group is called the group of death shows how much people thought both IC and Korea would challenge the 2 top teams. So I could careless what team it was...they played "Joga Bonito" better than the Brazilians I have seen in recent memory...Unbelievable style and finese. 7 goals by 6 players. GG

No man, I'm saying, even Brazil didnt show the dominance that PT did...Ofcoarse I'm not doing the math like that. What are we 6 years old?

LOL I have to admit you did sound like one here:

If you were in the NJ area - the mecca for portuguese and brazilians - you would have understood what I meant. I'm not talking numbers, I'm talking about how well the teams both played against the same opponent. You cannot discredit what happened today, no matter what team it was against. Thats all I'm saying...stop hatin' LOL - anyway, I'm done until Friday! See you guys then, and good luck to your teams as well.

oh my god, i thought coulibaly was bad, but this saudi ref is enjoying his limelight. 8 yellow cards, 1 FAIL red being issued.

what the f*ck is with refs this tournament??

Portugal is not going to fare well against brazil...

Go Chile, can't wait for the Spain game later today!

The refs pre-Germany Serbia were great. Since then, they've been mostly good, but with a few high profile mistakes.

& DannyGT, stick around for all the days, don't just pop in when your team plays. We're all friends here.

1-0 to Chile, but congrats to the Swiss for setting the new record for no goals allowed. Behrami got the short end of the stick with that ridiculous red card, they might've been able to hold on with a full squad.

Spain Honduras will be interesting, I'm definitely watching now that Fabregas has been named to the starting XI :tup:

lol...That in itself almost makes me believe Fabregas will not go to Barca this year, he'd never get minutes.

I'm waiting to order the new Barca & Arsenal kits before I find out what Fabregas does. If he leaves, I'm going with Nasri.

That & I want the numbers to look right.

What do you think of the new away kit, cow? Looks kinda 'meh' to me.

Hope the home kit comes out clean. If Fabregas leaves, I might be going with a Vermaelen shirt lol.

No. Its the mecca for guidos....

I actually REALLY like the new away kit. I'll probably get it if it's made in long sleeve (I prefer long-sleeved kits for no good reason).

I already have a Sagna strip, so maybe I'd go with him again. Who knows.

I'm more than likely sticking with Iniesta for my Barca strip... or maybe I'll switch to Pique.

LOL

Did I miss something? Portugal beat North Korea by a touchdown. Did they switch to American football for a quarter or something? lol :owned:

Nice goal by Villa!

Goal of the tournament to this point.
