    The countdown has been on in our house for weeks! Will be cheering on England as well as the other teams that feature Southampton FC players in them. Beers are in the fridge and flags are up :-)

    I wish Luis Suarez was English though!

    Go Ghana!!!!!! We kick USA butt every time we meet. Thanks USA for donating easy 3 points to us. I can't wait until Monday. Okay now let's be honest, there's NO way USA will beat Germany or Portugal or Ghana. This will be a very bad world cup for USA. Please don't be surprise if you guys don't win a single game. Ghana all the way.

    Plus I will not cheat/go over my calories while watching this world cup. NO alcohol or chips for me!!!!!!!

    I'm as excited about the World Cup as I am about cauliflower pizza crust.

    Used to love football in the days of Ron "Chopper" Harris and Norman "Bites yer Legs" Hunter but the players seem so pathetic these days. Slightest contact and they go down like there's a sniper in the crowd.....

    Agreed! It's pathetic, especially if you see what Rugby players put up with!

    I enjoy soccer, but I don't think I'll ever view things the same way after watching John Oliver's show.

    that is a very good clip. saw it the other day, and it shed some light on a lot of things for everyone that doesn't pay attention to soccer. i knew the country was spending a lot of money for the world cup, but a stadium in manaus that'll go unused after 4 games? rediculous.

    Heck yes. It's all part of the fun dropping your opposite number and getting planted in return.

    After playing for 20+ years i've broken all my digits, ribs, nose, dislocated shoulder etc. Each and every time I've not rolled around on the floor clutching at my perfectly moisturised face and crying like a baby.....

    I wonder if there's this much hype for the RWC next year?

    I doubt the proletariat will care too much.

    Hope we overcome the All Blacks but it's going to be a tough task.

    I love soccer! I enjoyed Colombia last night. Rodríguez is a great player.
  • Nope. You couldn't pay me to watch soccer. Most boring freaking sport on the planet.

    Great pics! Getting handed a 5-1 slaughter. . .not so good. Wouldn't have never thought Spain's mids would play so mediocre a match.

    Almost as disappointing was England's loss to Italy.

    So who thinks England will win? 28 to 1! Put £1000, win £28000! Easy!

    I am sorry for your loss.




    At least you were successful with your calorie predictions though, right?
