World Cup 2006

[QB Eagles]

If I had to pick a team I wish will win the whole thing, Serbia and Montenegro.

Didn't Montenegro just declare independence from Serbia a few days ago? That's got to lead to some interesting team dynamics.

[Diomedes]

Yes.  But the split was hardly contentious.  The two states are not at odds.  The team will play through WC '06 as Serbia and Montenegro, and the athletes are not suffering internal strife because of it.  They're in the World Cup..they want to represent to the world.

i just decided im rooting for african nations first and then the teams with the most brown people...hopefully those teams will do well so to stick to all the racist pig eurotrash soccer fans

is the world cup viewable on the internet anywhere like March Madness was?

half hour til the first game.

i decided that once the US is done I will be rooting for brazil, just because they have a guy named Kaka.

Might answer some critics questions--but the watchful eye still takes a beating from my couch

go kaka

[Drunkmasterflex]

Wow, what a start!

[phattymatty]

seriously, i walked away for a few minutes and missed 3 goals.

go costa rica.  its a national holiday there today, everyone has the day off because of a soccer game.

[rjs246]

All three goals have been f'ing exciting too. Costa Rica is completely overmatched and is somehow only down by one goal. They've scored on their only shot.

[SunMo]

Costa Rica's hanging in there.  i can't believe i'm actually listening to this on XM.

[Tomahawk]

Viva la Deutschland!
