There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Does anyone know from where I could get the schedule of the matches?
Thank you Louis.
This means I can't watch any of the matches from June 14th to June 18th. Also, I'll miss the first quarterfinals as well. I hope nothing interesting happens during those games.
I was especially waiting those Swiss games.. Oh well..![]()
I'm going to give a thumbs up for South Africa. I'm currently extremely biased (I've had the Koolaid to put it simply). A lucky call, they got a goal, they kept it close with a team that is far-and-above them. Had Madiba been there it would've worked out with at least a 10-1 gamewith Matt Damon suddenly appearing on the field. Hopefully they'll keep it up and get to the quarter finals on a wing-and-a-prayer.
I'm not too sure about Uruguay vs. France. I'm hoping that Uruguay will give France the "what-for" but we'll see what happens. Now I will leave and begin to throw all my tea-bags into the sink to get ready for the US-England game.

Group of Death, potential Ro16 game against Spain... I'd say he'll score two in total.

Maradona goes mental to the cameras, is tested positive for drugs and shipped off home, just like USA '94.

Okay, that was awful, both my performance this round, as well as the game between URU and France. What a waste of time.
Anyway, I was quite pleased with the performance of RSA. If they keep that up, they might just make it to the finals. But then again, with France being in a position that they'll have to win the next games not to fall off grace entirely and Uruguay being strengthen by holding up to France, it still gonna be difficult for South Africa.
But it seems Louis' prediction will come true and this group is going to be a close one.

That was the worst handball I've ever seen! Clear penalty there.
I was sooo hoping for Henry to make a complete stink out of it!
Other than that, a waste of time. Pity there were less than ten minutes left after that chap was sedn off. Could've made a goal there if given more time.
I see my two draw predictions - shamelessly copy-paste by lesser Gods such as as LEN - were spot on.

That was Serbia and Montenegro and it is a general consensus in Serbia that it was in fact Montenegro that conceded 6 goals while Serbia managed to secure a 0:0 draw :D.
Demands of an enormous sex life stopped me from posting yesterday but for today:

Argentina Nigeria 3:1

Jeez, should England fail to beat Yankees, I'll turn into a tomato paste godling.
I missed about 50 mins of S. Korea - Greece match but watched the rest. Oh boy, what an awful sight to behold is Greece's teamplay. Even Carpathian clubs with semi-amateur players do not play such a "baloon the ball into the area and let the chances speak" kind of play. Great win for the most experienced and ever-improving Asians of the tournament.
Singling out names for Argentina - Nigeria: Enyeama for his incredible positioning and cold nerves, Haruna for being a powerhouse in the midfield and Kalu for his stunning flair. Oh, and Gutierrez for being so plain and Maradona for playing a left winger as a right back having left out Zanetti.

W00t, tie score! The people calling the game, at least in the USA, were all over Green for that goal. They didn't give Dempsey any credit at all. Said something to the effect of "schoolboys don't make that mistake".
