I noticed (from at least where I looked) that we didn't have a football (soccer) World Cup thread up and going, so I want to start one.

so lets hear from all you:

1.) are you watching?

2.) what team are you supporting?

3.) are you enjoying it so far?

4.) any upsets in your opinion?

5.) favorite player?

6.) predictions?

For me: I am definetly watching, I'm supporting Mexico and Ghana, I'm so far thinking that, except for the African teams failing (exception: Ghana), that this world cup has been the best of them all since I started following in 1998 (8 years old :P) and that Cuatehmoc Blanco is my favorite player.

now what about you? let's hear your opinions on this world cup, which, while having corporate sponsors and such, is the closest we'll ever get to a truly international sporting event where the best teams aren't just the richest nations.

I'd move this to chit chat were I a mod.

Ditto

I haven't watched it personally since I don't own a TV and haven't the slightest interest in Football. Still, I'd support North Korea for the lulz.

Already a thread in "Sports & Health".
Have a look.

Incidentally, the politics forum is for...politics.

Thread closed.
