Blargh and I'll be losing 2 of those minimally based off the draw so far.

England/Colombia, Argentina/France.

Hi Necrominus, that’s a pessimistic way to look at things, one could equally delight in the pre-knowledge of two definite entries.
Also Soccer is very boring.

Baggly

This match, and this entire WC, is mental.
