TFoA Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 No Brazil. No Argentina. No fun.Germany has taken the place of Brazil for "Most fun team to watch in the World Cup."I mean really, look at the goals Germany's scored (not only today, but through the entire competition). If Brazil did that, people would be having sportsgasms right now & start waxing poetic about the beautiful game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEW.ERA Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 Who needs those South American giants.When you still have The Netherlands, Uruguay, Germany and either Spain or Paraguay. Suspense I tell you, Suspense. Also we don't get to see Diego Maradona run around naked in Buenos Aires.

HedleyLamarr Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I for some reason see Argentina beating Brazil in the finals, with Uruguay over Paraguay for 3rd place.I love when you do stuff like this...I for some reason see Argentina beating Brazil in the finals, with Uruguay over Paraguay for 3rd place.Yeah, you need to stop.Not to stick up for Will or anything, but this prediction doesn't really deserve the mockery he should get whenever he says Notre Dame should play 12 road games, UNC should go 40-0 or else be considered a failure, or that no Philadelphia players ever deserve to go to their respective All-Star games.

Because this was in the same vein. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedleyLamarr Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Not really.It's not that far-fetched a prediction, seeing as how all 5 South American teams advanced from group play, with four of the five winning their groups (and the fifth tying for first in their group). Entering the quarterfinals, the only South American team eliminated was the by-product of playing another South American team. Also consider that Germany and Spain lost a game in group play, and the Dutch were up against Brazil....it wasn't too crazy a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm almost ashamed to say it gives me a small amount of hope when these statements are proven wrong that there is a chance, however miniscule it may be, that he will stop the bat:censored: crazy dude act one of these days.

Seadragon76 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 It's a shame to see the mad genius that is Maradona out of the World Cup, but like NEW.ERA said, no one will have to suffer seeing him run through Bueno Aires buttnaked (I don't care how in shape he is, that's still a scary thought).As for Germany, they take the mantle of team to beat as of now. There are problems with both Uruguay and The Netherlands while Germany has been nearly unbeatable at this point despite a slip up in the group stage against Serbia.

FiddySicks Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Wow, I really thought Argentina was going to win the whole damn thing. At this point, I think it's an toss up between Spain, The Netherlands, and Germany. Maybe But I'm downplaying the "guays" too much.

NEW.ERA Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 Uruguay has the talent, Paraguay can't score but they've owned the first 14:00 minutes against Spain. Downfall of Argentina.1. The Back was just horrendous and heading in that was their weakness and it showed against a quality opponent.2. Lionel Messi sure he's all flash with his dribbling but hitting posts and shooting over the net doesn't help your team.3. Diego Milito had wonderful campaign in Italy and Maradona didn't even use him.4. Maradona! Will he be back for 2014 hard to tell, I think he will but he still has much to learn when it comes to managing.

raysox Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 A MLS team should look into signing Maradona as a coach. Basically, the equivalent to Ozzy Guillen. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEW.ERA Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 So I'm watching the Paraguay/Spain match on ABC just for the hell of it and I hate the color commentary, It just doesn't work for Football/Soccer in my opinion. CBC is doing a fine job with the commentary and studio analysis, Mike Tirico and Chris Fowler just don't do it for me.What do the Americans think of it?
