USA's first game out of the gate will likely be against Brazil, thanks for that setup FIFA.
Anyways, I think the semis will end up like this:
Netherlands vs. France
England vs. Brazil
With the Netherlands taking home the whole thing. I think England takes home 3rd place.
Should be a lot of fun.

theMUHMEshow 06-08-2006, 10:08 AM I just want the USA to beat the dogshit out of ITALY.
But I do think they will make it out..Czech and USA. I dont really know much after that other than Brazil is virtually unstopable and Ronaldinho is the best player to ever lace up shoes.
I plan on jetting out of class early on Monday and hit my local watering hole to get smashed and scream "OHHHHH LAYYYYYYYY OH LAY OH LAY OH LAY OHHHHHHHHHHH LAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY OH LAYYYYYYYYYYY LOL
I don't follow soccer well enough to make any worthwhile predictions for every group. I'll say that many people are picking the Ivry Coast team (Côte d'Ivoire) as perhaps the suprise of the tournament and while Brazil seems to me to be a lock for one side of the finals (England is overrated as a team IMO) and I think that an Argentina vs Germany match decides the other half. If Germany makes it, I have a hard time picking against the home team in a final (particularly since Brazil has a hard time in WCs in Europe) but if Argentina is there I'm picking Brazil 10 times out of 10.

My favorite teams are as follows:
USA - This land is our land Donavan, Keller, Beasley,
McBride and my man Clint Dempsey with the sick
handles are going to be fun as hell to watch.
Croatia - Albania's #1 ally
Tudor is a monstah and Dado Prso's energy is going to
be big because this is probably giving it his last hurrah.
Italy - Albania's #2 ally - I just wish they wouldn't grind out
when they're fully capable of beating teams by scoring
England - Always liked them, Owen-Rooney-Beckham that's sick.
Well balanced team with emphasis up front.
Brasil - The sickest fucking squad man. Ronaldo is back.
Ronaldinho is primed to take his place. Roberto Carlos, Kaka,
Dida…so on and so on.

Darth Thanatos 06-08-2006, 02:30 PM Not interested.
This sport is so fucking racist it's not even funny.
Comrade 06-08-2006, 02:33 PM Not interested.
This sport is so fucking racist it's not even funny.
How is the sport racist?
Darth Thanatos 06-08-2006, 02:46 PM It's racist towards black players. The fans chant derogatory things towards blacks and throw objects(like bananas) at them. There are even fans who throw up Nazi signs, and white players answer back with the sign themselves. Even the coaches(like Spain's) diss the colored players.
Fuck soccer. I'm not interested in a sport that has so much hate involved in it.

Fuck soccer. I'm not interested in a sport that has so much hate involved in it.
The actions of a few people in Spain, Italy, and England shouldn't ruin the whole game for you, man. With a sport this widespread and with such a passionate following there is (unfortunately) going to be a few assholes here and there. That's exactly what these guys want, to drive away blacks. Don't fall for it.
MOLA1 06-08-2006, 03:36 PM Soccer fans are a bunch of punks.®
Pele. Greatest player ever. Black. Fuck the haters.
Henry from France may be the greatest in the world right now. Black.
NBA:
Every sport has a little 'cism with it. Utah hates black people.
A whole ton of people clown on white players for being "dorky" and whatnot.
Is the NBA racist? No. Some people are idiots.
Comrade 06-08-2006, 07:02 PM Pele. Greatest player ever. Black. Fuck the haters.
Going to have to disagree with you there M1, I think a certain Argentinian coke-head and maybe even a English goalkeeper were better in their prime. But there is no doubt Pelé is one of the greatest ever.
theMUHMEshow 06-08-2006, 07:03 PM Unreal. So hate the sport because the fans are racist?
theMUHMEshow 06-08-2006, 07:03 PM Ronaldinho > Pele =when it is all said and done
Darth Thanatos 06-08-2006, 07:22 PM Unreal. So hate the sport because the fans are racist?
AND the players. AND the coaches.

You're right...taking what you saw on a SPORTSCENTER piece and directing it towards the whole sport is logical. I swear their aren't any racists in football/basketball/baseball or hockey.
im picking czech with my naive soccer opinion. but in all honesty, with all the nazi shit in the stands, i want the blackest darkest team to win and give a big fuk u to all the heil hitler shits out there. saw a special on espn today and it made me sick to my stomach. i was in germany a couple years ago and their graffiti, compared to our gang shit, is all either pro or anti nazi. its crazy to think thats still goin on. im white blonde and blue but damn get over it already germany (to the germans that are fuckheads).
-NoQuarter- 06-08-2006, 10:12 PM Not interested.
This sport is so fucking racist it's not even funny.
I didn't realize a sport, which is an intangible and non-sentient "game", could take on a social phobia reserved for ignorant people.
Thanks for clearing that up.
Ass.

LOL. People, people, people... you see a single ESPN Special on something and you seem to assume there is a Hitler Youth parade going on at every match. I spent nearly 4 months in Europe last summer and watched many soccer games in many countries and not once did I see or hear any of this neo-Nazi bullshit. A lot of haughty douchebag Euros, but that's about it. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, but not to the level some of you seem to think.
Unibomber 06-09-2006, 01:13 AM I was surprised no one until MOLA picked Mexico to come out of Group D.
I will be interested in watching this. I know very little, but when soccer means something it's damn cool, so I really want to watch this.
theMUHMEshow 06-09-2006, 09:43 AM THat is what I was thinking. None of these assbags have EVER been to a damn soccer game. I HAVE been to a World Cup game and I have friends that have traveled Europe for Soccer purposes. ESPN took a few events and BLEW IT UP to get the reaction like you are getting towards the europeans.
Comrade 06-09-2006, 11:06 AM I was surprised no one until MOLA picked Mexico to come out of Group D.
I will be interested in watching this. I know very little, but when soccer means something it's damn cool, so I really want to watch this.
You should be more surpised that none of us until Muhme took the Czechs, considering they're one of the best teams in the world. Thinking back to it I'm no so sure the USA advances. We got put in a pretty stacked group.
Edited to say the first game is on in about an hour on ESPN2. Germany vs. Costa Rica.
theMUHMEshow 06-09-2006, 12:22 PM So far the Germany vs Costa Rica game as BEEN AMAZING! 3 goals in 15 or so minutes. I LOVE THE WORLD CUP!!!
Comrade 06-09-2006, 01:23 PM So far the Germany vs Costa Rica game as BEEN AMAZING! 3 goals in 15 or so minutes. I LOVE THE WORLD CUP!!!
And then about 45 minutes of no goals :D . Germany has been dominating this game and finally put in their 3rd goal. Klose already has 2. Makes me wonder if he'll dominate the group stage again and disappear come stage 2 again.
i know its not everyone, or even a majority of the fans. but there were some pretty large sections guilty of it. i dont think its a racist sport either. its probably 5% of the fans there but still, its pretty damn sick.
Comrade 06-09-2006, 01:37 PM Costa Rica has 2 goals on 3 shots. In 2002 Germany didn't give up its 2nd goal until the Finals.
Comrade 06-09-2006, 01:50 PM Germany puts it away. This is a new-look Germany, relying on attacking nonstop as opposed to cradling leads.
theMUHMEshow 06-09-2006, 01:57 PM Klose = badass
I am pulling for Germany, they are my #2
Comrade 06-09-2006, 02:12 PM Klose = badass
I am pulling for Germany, they are my #2
Same here. We Krauts need to stick together.
Joe Asberry 06-09-2006, 02:36 PM nice game, 2 dream goals by Lahm and Frings....but man you can't allow Costa Rica to score 2 goals, the defense has to be way better vs Poland.
btw: only 6 more wins, dann ist Deutschland Weltmeister ! :D

Deutschland, Deutschland uber alles!
theMUHMEshow 06-09-2006, 04:02 PM Poland looks like HELL
Comrade 06-09-2006, 04:20 PM Poland looks like HELL
Yeah they do. Ecuador might just be heading to the second round if Poland doesn't at least get a draw here.
Cross 06-09-2006, 10:51 PM 4-2 Germans win.
I didnt watch the game but where was Michael Ballack?
Comrade 06-09-2006, 11:39 PM 4-2 Germans win.
I didnt watch the game but where was Michael Ballack?
Calf injury.
flipscrackers 06-10-2006, 05:29 PM Awesome game for Trinidad & Tobago, hanging on for the tie being a man down. Don't know of any other sport where at the end of a tie game I was excited at the ending.
Cross 06-11-2006, 02:28 AM I thought Sweden would win but they tied.
The England game showed me how bad they are compared to the other elite teams. PAraguay had one player who was decent and really tried while England is full of talent and yet the only goal they scored was an own goal by PAraguay.
theMUHMEshow 06-11-2006, 11:08 AM Ballack will be back when the Germans host Poland. Well...that is it for the Polish. Nice run. Thank you, come again
Tahoe 06-11-2006, 11:19 AM Once every couple of years is fine with me. Not sure I could watch it every Sunday.
But you gotta love a sport where the fans kick the shit out of player for fucking up. I'd consider that pretty pasionate sport.
And wasn't the Columbian goal tender murdered for putting the ball in his own net?
And some of these players put Manu Ginobli's whinny butt to shame. They can complaing like no one I've ever seen.
2 thumbs up for me.
Cross 06-11-2006, 12:01 PM Netherlands beat Serbia montenegro
Tahoe 06-11-2006, 01:21 PM Iran and Mexico are going at it right now (good match), not sure if its a delay so I won't be coming back to this thread until after its over, in case someone posts the score. Switching between the Tigers and WC.
theMUHMEshow 06-11-2006, 01:23 PM Mexico needs to screw their heads on. I fucking HATE IRAN!
Tahoe 06-11-2006, 01:39 PM I'd say they did that...3-1 Mexico now. I guess I lied. I did come back.

Fuck Iran
darkobetterthanmelo 06-11-2006, 07:31 PM Ive watched almost every game so far. The opening game was very entertaining, Lahm and frings goal was good. I like how in soccer the best team doesn't always win, brings more suspense into the game. Seeing Trinadad and Tobago tie Sweden was magical.
Tahoe 06-11-2006, 08:05 PM I can't seem to figure when the games are on and where. Most every time I sit down...no games.

and thx to bodubyas
Tahoe 06-11-2006, 08:37 PM So we start with 2 tough games then an easy one? Would playing ghana first help? I guess Czech won't be able to get warmed up either.
Its 9am for me.
USA USA USA

USA USA USA
No easy ones.
Czechs = kick ass
Italy = Really kick ass
Ghana = African Ass Kickers
Cross 06-11-2006, 10:39 PM Ghana is really good at passing and a good team IMO.
I thought Iran would win it before the game started but Mexico pulled through.
I cant wait for the Australia vs Japan game
darkobetterthanmelo 06-11-2006, 11:00 PM The US will have to work hard and need a little luck for each game to win. Clearly this group is the toughest of them all. Hell, even if you are in a group with Brazil, at least you can beat the two other teams.
theMUHMEshow 06-12-2006, 08:01 AM USA will pull it out today...and then they will piss on Italy on Saturday.
I cannot wait to start consuming the beer come noon!!
Comrade 06-12-2006, 11:15 AM 45 minutes all. Let's hope we start this thing off right and beat one of the best teams in the world.
Tahoe 06-12-2006, 11:43 AM I have to leave but the match will be TIVO'd.
Comrade...not saying anything bad about your new avi, but the avi with animated soldier was just sick. First time I was scared of an animated pic.
Tahoe 06-12-2006, 12:08 PM When our goalie kicked the ball the length of the field, it looked like all of our players went with it and then they countered and we stuck without much defense back there.
1-0 Cze It early but ya don't want to go down right away either.
MOLA1 06-12-2006, 12:14 PM Netherlands beat Serbia montenegro
YES! T'was expected, but nevertheless, I'm always happy when Serbia loses.
Varsity 06-12-2006, 01:15 PM It's racist towards black players. The fans chant derogatory things towards blacks and throw objects(like bananas) at them. There are even fans who throw up Nazi signs, and white players answer back with the sign themselves. Even the coaches(like Spain's) diss the colored players.

They had a special on that...on espn..it's a damn shame. As americans we forget that not everyone had the civil rights movement.

They never had state-approved racial segegration either.
Comrade 06-12-2006, 01:37 PM The Czechs have pretty much dominated us. It looks as though the Czechs are probably the best team in the group, so we'll need to put both Italy and Ghana down and hope Brazil loses a game.
Cross 06-12-2006, 05:59 PM Did anyone catch the Australia vs Japan game?
Its so frustrating to watch Australia play. I was cheering my fucking lungs out but goddamn the team was tired in the whole 2nd half. They were sluggish and their forwards dont attack when a mid fielder was about to cross it.
Howeever...3 goals in 8 minutes for the Aussies?
incredible...
theMUHMEshow 06-13-2006, 03:03 PM Ronaldino might be my favorite athlete to watch...PERIOD.
theMUHMEshow 06-13-2006, 03:05 PM Are you guys noticing that these European's are always on the ground crying? Czech and Italy were on the ground non stop crying their damn eyes out like they were going to die.
...of course the Germans are the exception to this...I didnt see a lot of the England or French game...but I would be the frenchies were acting like pussies too

Don't hate on team Italia...
theMUHMEshow 06-13-2006, 03:08 PM They're a bunch of babies. I was watching the game with Valenti yesterday and he was saying the same thing. The damn Euros are on the ground crying too damn much. With the Germans being an exception.
Ballack coming back = German's will win it all

I beg to differ, but the Czech's and Italian's will be coming out of the group..
SpartanSteve 06-13-2006, 03:18 PM Also, why are you never on AIM?
theMUHMEshow 06-13-2006, 03:26 PM Been busy lately...
Your boy Luca toni is a fucking scrub...Ballack would beat his ass.
SpartyNick 06-13-2006, 03:26 PM I beg to differ, but the Czech's and Italian's will be coming out of the group..
And I will hate you for it if that happens. I hope Italy chokes on it vs. the US and then the Tigers sweep the Cubs this weekend, lol.
theMUHMEshow 06-13-2006, 03:28 PM Italy is lucky they won yesterday. Ghana outplayed them but you could tell that Ghana had ZERO COACHING. Their stragety was fucking horrible. Italy will have their hands full on saturday.

Luca Toni is a bad ass. We'll see who owns who on Saturday..
theMUHMEshow 06-13-2006, 04:04 PM WTF is with the reporting on these damn games...I want to know what is up with Croatia's stud that got hurt before the half.
theMUHMEshow 06-13-2006, 05:11 PM Does anyone know why the players are switching jerseys after the games?
flipscrackers 06-13-2006, 05:45 PM The swap of jerseys is some tradition I think. Why can't they do that in women's beach volleyball?
SpartanSteve 06-13-2006, 05:53 PM Does anyone know why the players are switching jerseys after the games?
They do that after every game. It's a sign of sportsmanship, like shaking hands, but this way they can keep the jersey and always have something to remember the game by. I think it's pretty sweet...
Cross 06-13-2006, 06:42 PM Korea blows ass. They get one goal when Togo was one player down for nearly the whoile 2nd half.
Swiss and France tied...fuck.
That leaves a better chance for Korea to make it out of the group.
KAka is the next new star. Not because of the goal but because he is just that good.
CrossYouUp......are you still in Korea? must be nuts over there. my buddy was there back in 02 and he said it was nonstop partying. :D
theMUHMEshow 06-14-2006, 09:58 AM Kaka...is going to be the highest paid player in the Euro leagues...I forgot where I found the article..
Tahoe 06-14-2006, 01:47 PM Saudi Arabia vs Tun...and the legend Sammy Al-Jabair comes through with a goal in the 83(?) minute to make it 2-1 SA. They just put him in a couple of minutes earlier. Saving the old man for the end.
btw...he may be a legend but I don't follow soccer. Never heard of him.
SpartanSteve 06-14-2006, 03:03 PM Alot of German flopping going on so far...
Comrade 06-14-2006, 04:49 PM Odonkor with a cross to my boy Neuville in the stoppage and it looks like Germany pulled this one out.
H1Man 06-14-2006, 04:53 PM Although the outcome didn't go their way, Poland played a great game today.
Comrade 06-14-2006, 05:00 PM Poland better hope Ecuador loses their last 2 games pretty badly (and a good win against the Ticos) or they're out.
darkobetterthanmelo 06-14-2006, 05:45 PM Damn what an ending to the germany game. Poland almost held on with 10 guys.

Yeah, it was fucking loud at night after we won the game.
Spain just raped Ukraine like a dog.
theMUHMEshow 06-14-2006, 08:03 PM So pissed. I sat down to watch the fucking German game...and I wake up with Dominos on ESPN. WTF. I hate my life.
Cross 06-15-2006, 10:13 PM England has once again disappointed me.
Only a 2-0 win against T&T.
Sweden beats Paraguay 1-0.
Ecuador owns Costa Rica 3-0...which means they are advancing.
edit. So basically.
Germany
Sweden
England
Ecauador are advancing as of now.

Not when they hate my people and treat us like trash and try to kill us all. Fucking Nazi's.
this is the most soccer i've ever watched in my life (aside from when i played as a kid, lol).
i really wish soccer was as huge in the U.S. there's that passion that other countries have for their teams.....i wish we could have that here.
kdawg32086 06-16-2006, 09:26 PM Updated teams who have advanced already:
Germany
Ecuador
England
Argentina
Netherlands
(Sweden advances unless they lose, T&T wins, and T&T gains 3 goals on Sweden in the +/-, in that case, they tie)
Unibomber 06-16-2006, 09:48 PM TOGO SCORES THE GOAL!!! *does the jackalope*
In all seriousness, I kinda wish Angola beat Mexico in the cruelest of ironies.
Cross 06-16-2006, 10:00 PM Damn the Netherlands game was really fun to watch, especially in the first half.
Fuck Mexico tied with Angola...
I guess I really want an African team to win now because not a team in this year's WC from Africa has won a game....[smilie=grumble.gif]

Totally agree with you bro...
I cannot wait for the Italy US game tomorrow. I am praying to god US wins so I can give the good ole AMERICAN FUCK YOU to all the cock smacks here in America that are pulling for the Itialian cockbags to beat the us
Cross 06-17-2006, 07:27 AM One reason why its not so loved is because there is no dominant league in the US as compared to the premiere league in Europe or maybe even the spanish leagues.
The Worldcup has to be one of the most "friendliest" sporting events as well. Just saw a small clip of a Togo player trying to "massage" a korean player's ankle after he rolled it. The switching of the jerseys etc. A very respectable event overall.

Speaking of wtf is going on?
Is fucking off sides when a player is in front of the ball? If so, how the fuck can they take the ball deep and then kick it back out (while still in the other teams half of the field) to players at the 50 yard line?
Wouldn't all those players have to clear out, kind of like hockey?
BTW...I know I'm setting myself up for some ridicule here, with this dumbass question but I'm not seeing a pattern on offsides. Fire away, but explain too please...
theMUHMEshow 06-17-2006, 01:30 PM I do think the Czech's are getting Fd on some calls

un-fucking-real
Cross 06-17-2006, 01:32 PM ok, Ghana now just looks tired.
I just remembered, Czech is playing one man down. It makes that much of a difference.
offsides?
Just dont let the striker get ahead of the last defender while the ball is in the air. once the ball hits the ground and rolls, its called a through pass.
theMUHMEshow 06-17-2006, 01:33 PM This game reminds me of the PISTONS vs CAVS series.
Czech is WAY better but they are laying a turd on the field.
theMUHMEshow 06-17-2006, 01:34 PM This game is stressing me out hhaaha

Tahoe 06-17-2006, 01:37 PM But then that should have been offsides
theMUHMEshow 06-17-2006, 01:37 PM You're right. Ghana should have five or so goals. They are getting great opportunities

Now this. Two red cards???? A man short for most of the match? Fuck FIFA!!!
kdawg32086 06-17-2006, 05:58 PM Arena misplayed his subs. The Conrad for Convey sub was good. But, he should have put Beasley in for Reyna. Reyna seemed to die off after the 65th minute or so. And he should have subbed in one of his 3 other strikers for McBride. He had Eddie Johnson, Brian Ching, and Josh Wolff wasting away on the bench.

Second hardest? Which do you think was more stacked? I think FIFA just wanted an African nation in the final 16 this year. Some of those calls we're absolutely laughable.

Those are LOCKS! No other team had a chance to qualify for the :sweet sixteen" The same could have been said about the Czech's and Italy. Or Spain and the Ukraine.
Black Dynamite 06-23-2006, 08:12 AM The only time i watched soccer was when i was kicking with this Jamaican-Canadian chick in Windsor. Otherwise its too boring. Her luscious enthusiasm over it helped make it easier to watch with her at her place(or was it something else?).[smilie=burgerking.: She was a big time beckham fan. From what i saw, i never saw a player on earth with more pressure on them than beckham a few years ago. he was jesus and the anti-christ dependin on his performance.
