#brasil should blame #fifa for their humiliating defeat at the #worldcup

#brasil should blame #fifa for their humiliating defeat at the #worldcup after all it was #fifa who propped this team up from the get go. Looking back, perhaps they shouldn't have even made it out of the group stages... Crazy? look back at the first game against Croatia, without the Gift from the Horrible refereeing that has encapsulated the entire world cup, Croatia may have been able to win, or at worse tie Brazil. Then what? based on the way Mexico and Croatia were playing they could have been the two to advance... But alas, #fifa props them up so they can get the Maximum number of games in (they will play the same # of games as the winner of the worldcup) regardless if they get humiliated... once again I'm left to #blameBlatter

#marquez vs #thecheatRobben and Newton’s third law #cheat #worldcup #mex #fifa

I cheered Against #France for four years after #ThierryHenry ’s handball advanced them to the world cup in Africa, so my disgust to #Robben will likely last much much longer, because I don’t even know who #France knocked out to get in…. This was not only in the #WorldCup, but against #Mexico. I’m going to sound smart and use Newton’s third law of motion to lay to rest my opinion, and thankfully, the only one that matters ;) Newton’s law implies, “that for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force” Taken in to context of futbul, if you are running I have to kick you with enough force to make that leg move into the path of the other leg, that then makes you not only trip but fall to the ground. Or, I have to step on your foot, or toe, not only long enough, but hard enough that it makes you unable to move that foot to make your next step. Neither of these cases are true in the #Marquez vs #thecheatRobben. Then you might try to argue that we...

#worldcup #crunchtime #col #colombia Get Your Coffee Out! Let's get Ready to Rumble!!

Today is crunch time for Chile and Colombia. Colombia could pull this off, but Uruguay is a decent team, and hopefully the Colombians are not too full of themselves and take this seriously.  Chile is up against it with Brazil, surely they'll be playing against 12, no? 13 if you count Blatter, haha Get Ready for the Fun!!!

and the winner of the #worldcup #Loser #award goes to... no real suprise #Suarez

Reason Number One, and really do you need any further example of how big a jerk this guy is Third Times a charm I guess. Reason I simply cannot cheer for Uruguay. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/worldcup2014/article-2666449/Italy-vs-Uruguay-World-Cup-2014-LIVE-Follow-Group-D-action-happens.html http://sports.yahoo.com/news/heres-bite-mark-luis-suarez-181527978.html

What a Saturday at the #worldcup some Cracker of matches in the final round...

Even though there are a couple of teams that have wrapped up their Round of 16 ticket, 1st and 2nd place in Every group is still up for grabs... Although Cameroon beating Brazil remains unlikely..  Bring on Sunday to wrap up all the 2nd games.  Highlites include - Can the #USA Really go top of #GroupG  To wrap up todays thought, I think the entire #BIH team ran about 10km..  To put this in perspective, the average team of All other #worldcup teams is usually about 8 or 9.  I almost broke out in a sweat when I saw a #BIH actually run... then I realized the whistle had blown, and he was merely parading to the sideline to A) bitch at the ref or B) get some water....  More talented to the man than #Nigeria, but as a team really let me know, so in a way, glad to see the removed...  Bring on Sunday!!  Their are no other thoughts on the other match, as most of the world don't even know where #Belgium is, and Korea Algeria don't even warrant me putting a ...

#worldcup #iran Almost a 'win' for #iran

I almost found myself cheering for #iran at todays #worldcup match... usually don't like to watch teams that put 12 players (including coach) behind the ball aka typical #greece; however todays match seemed special, what is #iran ranked, 146? or something... They actually forced the argentinian goalie into a few saves, and was that a legit penalty cry??!! upon further review, in fact I think it was.... For a moment I thought I was going to have to apologies to my Nigerian friend, however, #messi came to my rescue, and the entire country of Argentina.. in the end 1-0 will not serve justice to how well #iran actually did play.. On to #germany vs #ghana,,  predictions?? 2-0,, 3-0?? how many will them #germans put past the african continent yet to score a goal??

#worldcup #costarica #fantastic #congragulations

#worldcup #costarica #fantastic #congragulations What a spectacular Fantastic result for an entire Nation. This truly is the year of the underdog in the #worldcup as #CostaRica overtake yet another powerhouse in downing #Italy !!! Wow!wow!wow!  if I was giddy before with their win over Uruguay, then I'm completely beside myself this afternoon!

#worldcup #fifa & my #Beats

Although I am not nearly as rich, I am likely cooler than most footballers at the #worldcup. #fifa Although I'm not quit as endorseable as ohh #neymar or #rooney, I will show off my #Beats as I watch the #fifa #worldcup

Colombian 12th Man

Haven't required the lucky 12th Man..
I don't understand this #worldcup image (stolen from the bbc website) but it makes me chuckle none the less...

Nice Article #worldcup

#Goals galore, #England's young stars, #Spain's demise, #LionelMessi and so much more... 10 reasons why we've loved the #WorldCup so far | Mail Online< http://www.dailymail. co.uk/sport/worldcup2014/ article-2659958/Goals-galore- Englands-young-stars-Spains- demise-Lionel-Messi-10- reasons-weve-loved-World-Cup- far.html >

#Worldcup Well most things seemed to go as planned today..

at least #Honduras kept #France of the Scoresheet for most of the first half... I think I'd almost consider that a small victory... no??  I fell asleep halfway through the first half of the Switzerland/Ecuador game, these teams are not going Anywhere.. ANYWhere..  Sadly one of the two are going to likely progress..  Cheer for Hondurans, Cheer for Honduras!  Messi scored a messi'sish goal vs Bosnia who were allot better than I anticipated and are going to give Nigeria a real run, that is going to be a cracker .  Tomorrow we see the demise of the 'mericans snicker snicker, and a good opening match to kick the day off at 10am local time for me with the Germans vs Ronaldo and some other people. Thats the game to join me at the Garage in eua claire heh heh

#WorldCup Day 4 What possible crazy outcomes could we see today!

So the population of #Switzerland is 8.1 million; #Ecuador 15 million. That means that 23million people will be watching the first match today... Can't see much interest after that. #France vs #Honduras. Imagine concaf taking the world by storm and Honduras following in the footsteps of #CostaRica and knocking off a giant... haha... yea, not going to happen. But take interest Hondurans if Costa Rica did it, why not you!! #Argentina Bosnia is the match of the day, 4pm in Cowtown

World Cup

I'm so giddy with #Costa Rica's win today... if you need an underdog too cheer for, let me tell you... that was David vs Goliath if there was one..  only bit of sad need was the English result, I coulda lived with at least a tie...

World Cup Opening Match - Man of the Match..... a Japanese fella???

When the man of the match isn't even of the nationality of the two opening teams, somethings amiss.. However I will weigh in only slightly on the referee, because lets be honest; how many adjectives would be required to indicate how poorly/badly Croatia played? They passed and ran themselves out of bounds like 3rd rate MLS player, and that might actually be insulting them 'mericans. Can you imagine if the game had finished in the tie, I think this would be Scolari's press conference, " if we are going to kick the ball in our own net, we may as well just join the circus".  Croatia's ball percentage for the game an abysmal 39% which would like translate to about 5% in the offensive zone (stat from goal.com), shots on net - 3, and they likely had to count the goal, which makes it actually 2. Two Shots on Goal.  When your only goal comes from an attempted pass, you likely shouldn't blame the ref for the outcome of a game.  Now on to the man of the match. Yes i...

#World Cup

#WorldCup Ten Days Away http://youtu.be/TGtWWb9emYI This should help! Who's your favorite team? Who's your team to beat? With 32 teams, really you should have some backups! I think I'm cheering for 8 or 9.. HaHA just kidding, 3, 4 with a couple having a viable chance, aka no one from Africa Asia, or concaf, which rules out my #1 team Mexico. conmobol has a "good" chance of success although my 2nd team likely won't make it either, Colombia. I have to cheer for Colombia, as my wife is Colombian, so I'm actually really glad them and Mexico wouldn't meet till, Ohhh the semi's or something.. pretty good chance that won't happen. So, who's it gonna be?! Germany, Argentina who Wouldn't like a Argentina Brazil final, not sure there groups line up that they could, but at some point they'd have to meet, than That would be the final..
