ÔÇ£Germany I think is one of the best teams in the moment, together with Spain. That is what I think. Brazil has a good team and I think it will be fantastic, it will very good if Brazil could come to the final with Germany, it would be fantastic.ÔÇØ

I'll be in Costa Rica at the start of the Cup, so I'll be pulling for La Sele even though they play my real team Italia in their opener. I'll have no such conflict when they go against the Brits in their 2nd game though...
I haven't checked to see if it's mathematically possible, given the groups, but if recent WC parties are anything to go by, the folks still gassing at sun-up will be Germany, Italy, Spain and Brasil. England passed out in the garden, naked from the waist down.
Heard its some shaker thing for that samba flavour.
I need one for those long nights at the big screen outside the boozer.
well, last year FIFA unveiled the "caxirola," a trademarked rip-off of the shaker that is normally attached to a berimbau. This is its "inventor" Carlinhos Brown posing with it:
thankfully they decided to debut it at a Bahia x Vitoria match, the Salvador derby. Bahia was losing pretty badly, at which point fans started pelting players with their complimentary caxirolas (didn't this happen on The Simpsons on something like free pretzel day?).
anyway, FIFA changed their mind on this hard plastic thing being given out to everyone, but I think they went for an inflatable version of this bullshit.

That's great. I can't imagine how drunk the country would get if we did win. The thought of an entire nation (well, the vast majority) being completely shit-faced for a week or so... I almost think that the other participants should do us a favour and let it happen just so they could laugh at the results. Mass drinking. By day 3 it would turn ugly. Possible civil war by the end of the week.
President Hollande to sign Declaration Of Inferiority gets my vote.

I can't tell you how shocked I was when he became Tottenham's number one back in the day.
Terrible.

US got a fucked draw. I wouldn't be surpised if they got 1 point or even none.
Mexico is en fuego right now. C WUT I DID THUR.
No Ribery = not having to explain "What happened to that man that looks like quasimodo?" again.
to think a few years ago people were scared that it would be the "tiki taka" world cup...

boo
this is me railing against the pundits that are forcing the 'Belgium is going to win everything for the next 15 years' ethos on me.
I'm probably wrong.
I also have Croatia making the semis in my office pool, so.....
I haven't checked to see if it's mathematically possible, given the groups, but if recent WC parties are anything to go by, the folks still gassing at sun-up will be Germany, Italy, Spain and Brasil. England passed out in the garden, naked from the waist down.
Meriman flexing by the pool.
At the wrong address.

I just watched your mighty Honduras lose a friendly against Spain. They can't even park a bus properly.
they're still better than Canada tho.

Man I NEEEEED one of these things.
I realized later that wasn't Honduras who lost to Spain, it was El Salvador. Honduras tied England nil-nil. EVEN WORSE.

I live in the Pacific Time Zone. In USA. Best soccer nation of all times forever and ever. Advancing to Galaxy Cup no prob.
FUCK Honduras and their thug players, and fuck the shitty ref who condoned it all game long.
And while we're at it, FUCK the whole Argentina squad for their latest Malvinas ass-hurtery.
Now, where's that St. George's flag themed shaker? Ah yes. Tesco on line.
Bring it.

Talmbout Meriman dominating the soccers. :scoffs:
Foll, you should be in the drunk thread.
If you had proper beer.
