Yeah bro I wouldn't choose that shit willingly.

As a German fan 2014 is my favorite WC of all time. 7-1 will forever be one of my fondest sports memories of all time. I still watch the highlights to that match. 2010 was fun because it was my first time really paying attention to the WC. I have mixed feelings about this WC. A lot of really...

I know who I'm cheering for:

I want the winner of England/Croatia to win it all. I dislike France and Belgium annoyed me in 2014 and they annoy me again this go around. It is possible for neither side to win that match?

Man, what a showing by Russia. I was pulling for them even though I like Croatia. I don't understand the Russia hate on here other than to link it to politics. I didn't think Russia was good enough on the world stage to have hate. It's like hating...Miami (OH) in football (unless you're a fan of...

So every other year, after the Euros or the WC I want to get into club level "football" (soccer) but I just...can't. For a number of reasons. One: The domestic league is horrible. I know it is getting better but the first time I ever truly paid attention to soccer was the 2010 WC. It's hard to...

I will say though, the England team this year doesn't have the same feeling of over confidence, obnoxiously cockiness of England teams of recent memory. The fans are the fans and oh well.

Yeah but, ND really does have a glorious past. England has 1 WC. In that regard they are like UGA. A lot of talk about their glory, a lot of hype every year, but underachievement and only 1 title.

I don't hate this England team. I'd like to see Croatia win it all.

I'm more or less fine with any of the remaining teams winning it except France.

Japan choking that match away yesterday was unbelievable.

Man I'm gutted for Iceland, they battled like lions out there. Argentina didn't deserve to go through after playing like garbage for 2 games (and long stretches of the 3rd). Here's to hoping Germany stomps South Korea tomorrow.

Go Iceland. I hope they can sneak through.

What a match!! What a clutch, unbelievable strike from Kroos! In the 95th minute too. Man Germany is going to age me 10 years, especially since I've been sick.

I'll be rooting for Germany to win it all again, but I love Iceland. I really hope they make a Cinderella run out of group play and maybe even steal a round of 16 game.
