[dash]

Oh I agree, and I enjoy his colo(u)r work on MLS telecasts.

/Just thought he took the easy way out by choosing the home team to win the title (lol)

The host country has been pretty successful in winning the World Cup, have they not?

Edit: Not including when FIFA awards the tourney to places where they hope to grow the game.

I don't know what the problem is - Please raise your hand if you picked the States to win in 1994 or Japan/South Korea in 2002 or South Africa in 2010 to win the tourney.

sounds like you are taking ... the ... easy way out

Croatia just got CONCACAF'D

 

[esls79]

This is why home teams are such favorites - the refs fear for their lives if they don't make certain calls

 

[podsox]

and the refs giftwrap one

 

[podsox]

then find a different job

 

[esls79]

Ok, this is getting CONMEBLOL'D now

There's no easy way out.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

the corpse of Dino Zoffs dead nonna would have had that one

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Croats cant be happy with this one ... im betting Milan Lucics serbian church in new west gets tagged tonight

 

[SLY]
