I don't just cheer for winning teams. Don't get me wrong, I was rooting for the U.S. to win. Me saying they suck has nothing to do with me being a fan of them.

I'm a huge Pittsburgh Pirates fan, and was a huge Pittsburgh Steelers fan well before we started winning. And I remain a loyal Pittsburgh Penguins fan as well, despite them sucking harder than a vaccum.

As the tournament continues, the games get hotter and hotter. Man, the last three games have been top class soccer. Maybe not so much fair soccer, Holland vs. Portugal was fairly dirty, but the game was still exciting.

I was personally hoping for Holland to get one in stoppage time, and then have two scoreless overtimes... then on to PKs!

Same here. And what about that Argentina goal against Mexico? Man, that was a great game.

Dude! I started that day at my new job! Missed both games!

The day's results were what I was hoping for, though. This whole weekend went my way 'cept for the Netherlands losing. As long as England gives Portugal what's for next match I'll be happy.

They were but minutes away from P.K.s!

If I don't see any penalty kicks this cup I'll be very pissed off.

From here, I say:

Italy, Switzerland, and France to move on. I'm sure Brazil will too, but I'll be crossing my fingers for Ghana.

From there, it's Germany, Italy, England, and France; Italy over England in the final, and Germany over France for third place.

I'm also hoping for Ghana to win. I don't think France will beat Spain. Argentina and Germany is too close to call, though I really want Germany to win this World Cup (or Ghana). England Portugal? that's hard, considering Portugal has some players out and some tired/slightly injured and England isn't playing too fantastic.

But yea, I want Germany to win this World Cup, if not then it's going to be Argentina.

Yeah, the whole Brazil/Ghana/France/Spain group is hard to pick from...

I would like to see Ghana and France, but it will probably be Brazil and Spain.

And I haven't had a chance to see Argentina or Germany yet, and though Argentina is supposed to be hot, I too would like to see Germany win.

Australia's playing well.

That was, without a doubt, the biggest bullshit I have ever seen in my life. I'm so pissed off I want to stab a fucking newborn Italian baby.

Neill shouldn't have ever put himself in that position. Australia's own fault that they lost man.

No, he was on the floor already! He just stumbled over him! That wasn't a penalty.

He shouldn't have gone to the ground, and when he did, he should have at least gotten the fucking ball away.
