Go Suarez
apparently, you could have also put a 750-1 bet that suarez would bite someone during the world cup. some guy won a few grand off this bet.
Milo
FIFA gets it mostly right on the Suarez decision and, if results hold, Germany and the USA are on to the next round . . .
No England, no Portugal, no Italy, no Spain . . .
Knockout stages are going to produce some interesting results.

Uruguay goes from a coin flip odds wise against Columbia to a 4-1 dog without Suarez........fml

yup. columbia definitely has a good chance with suarez out. uruguay still has a chance to beat them, but i don't see them going past the next round.

Made a sensible wager, and a silly wager today with the OLG. If either wins, I will be happy.
Wager #1 . . .
Chile wins outright over Brazil
Mexico wins outright over Netherlands (thus guaranteeing that the Oranje will be victorious)
Nigeria wins outright over France.
If this magic carpet ride pays off, it will be for 151.20 : 1
Wager #2 . . .
Colombia wins outright
Costa Rica wins outright (might redo this one to a tie)
France wins outright
Belgium wins outright
Payoff = 6.85 : 1
The more I look at it, the more I like #1 as all ties.

I think we have a new frontrunner for best goal of the tourney. Rodriguez's volley from from the top of the box was absolutely amazing.
BTW Moose, if you watch the replay, you can see he uses his whole body. ;)
Milo
DEFINITELY the goal of the Cup so far, even better than RVP's. Controls it off the chest and blasts it top shelf without letting it settle. Amazing touch.
Milo
Holy heart attacks Batman . . . talk about heart in throat time. fortunately, the Oranje make it past the Mexicans . . . which is too bad, because they deserved better than to have Marquez be Marquez, especially at that moment.
Still, someone has to lose.
Milo
Colombia, France, Netherlands, and Argentina.
Milo
Okay, 2 for 4 . . . but who the hell subs for their Keeper going into the Penalties . . .
a GENIUS that's who.

4 for 4 for me! i've got germany and argentina in the finals with germany winning.
Milo
I said that before the tourney started, too. Germany is FINALLY starting to look like the well oiled machine they usually are in these things, while Argentina still looks kind of "meh". Pulling hard for the Oranje to make it an all-Euro final this week.

well, that was the game i was most worried about. i think germany will be able to beat netherlands or argentina.
payperview
I should have placed a wager on this when I posted it originally.
payperview;376309 wroteArgentina vs Germany final. Argentina for the win.
Milo
Relax, Kreskin, you weren't exactly the only one to go that route. And Germany SMASHES the Argies . . .
Brazil takes the Saturday game to salvage some pride.
Milo
Did not see that coming at all . . . I think TFC could beat this Brazil team . . . SHOCKING collapse.
