omg! what if SpainSpainSpain

omg! what if SpainSpainSpain actually wins the pool? What kind of crazy fight back will that be? And for those who scoff at the double-down, Beatriz wasn't the only one to double down on Spain, hey, Jdidur? And there were plenty o' suckers who doubled down on brazil.

If calamity should happen, I'll take it like a Dad. But who, pray tell, are you DELECOSSE!!!??? Show yourself! Who is challenging my daughter!! Damned you, Delecosse, damn you.

Actually my MATH tells me

Actually my MATH tells me that on Sunday with a Spain win the leader board will look like this:

Bea with 71
Maxhaze with 68
Jdidur with 67

Nice.

delecosse is stuck at 64 no matter what.

If Spain Spain Spain wins it

If Spain Spain Spain wins it will be a disaster to the integrity of pool. The only worse scenario is if jdid places third.

Impostor! Here is the real Alphorn. I am enough for myself, don't need to also be delecosse. Pure victim of identity theft!

That's not alphorn. The real

That's not alphorn. The real alphorn would have had something to say about the game yesterday.

I do so wish I was in

I do so wish I was in Montreal for the festivities, the gazpacho popsicles, the beautiful gang. It will not be the same here. I am now off to put on the orange socks I bought at H&M.

Well it's pretty fantastic if

Well it's pretty fantastic if you're here on the webcast with me! Anyone else out there?

I'm predicting 2-1 Spain.

I'm predicting 2-1 Spain. Anyone else?

I am back from my week's

I am back from my week's vacation at the lake. Not sure who I am rooting for -- perhaps Spain since they are one of my picks, and besides it would be awesome for a kid to win the pool. Let's hope for an exciting game!

An incredibly violent start

An incredibly violent start followed by a whole lotta boredom.

Really, the Spanish are so

Really, the Spanish are so much more fun to watch than the Dutch. How the hell do they get away with kicking someone in the chest? Is the ref afraid of red cards? Please!

That was a crazy moment.

That was a crazy moment. Spain aren't being allowed to pass though, so credit the Dutch.

Gotta love Ramos - though

Gotta love Ramos - though Robben has some sweet moves for sure.

I wonder if every player on

I wonder if every player on the field will get a yellow before this is over?

Hmm I wonder where I saw

Hmm I wonder where I saw Robben blow a shot just like that before?

Robben will regret that miss

Robben will regret that miss for the rest of his life. I hope.

sweet goal for Spain.

sweet goal for Spain. Finally!

After five hours in a dark

After five hours in a dark bar and as many slowly-nursed beers, emerging into the sunlit, honking street was a shock. Why am I wearing orange socks? I can't believe it is all over. Thank you, carefulmedia, for making it all happen. See you in four years.

What da ya mean?! Women's

What da ya mean?! Women's World Cup next year!!!!

Congratulations to Beatriz! Thanks David for so much fun. Now what am I going to do to procrastinate?

Beatriz is going to give that octopus a run for his money...
Cracking website, David. It provided an overall shape to this World Cup. They should make you FIFA's soccer ambassador in North America.

Sigh. No more games. I hear

Sigh. No more games. I hear David is planning a World Cup Brazil tour. Where do we sign up?!:) Thanks for the party.

I am delecosse I just got

I am delecosse

I just got back in town from a trip yesterday and I am absolutely devastated to have lost to David's daughter. I am though kind of excited to have achieved a level of infamy on this site.

I am a friend of Carlo Cesta's and I like Dundee United and Scotland. One team in orange won something this year!

The blog on Argentina / Germany was superb!

Cheers,

Derek

I'll pass on your compliments

I'll pass on your compliments to grandmaster jRo re: the Argentina/Germany blog. Say hello to Bald-Headed Boss for me and see you in for years time delecosse, if that's really who you are.
