Fink Posted May 29, 2002 Report Share Posted May 29, 2002 Well, with just a few days until the start of the World Cup, lets hear who everyone things will make the finals and win... My prediction is Portugal vs Argentina, with Portugal winning of course!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Boy 2.0 Posted May 29, 2002 Report Share Posted May 29, 2002 I'm predicting that the States won't score a goal, that Ireland will do better without that whining nut, Keane. Also, Figo will have an awful tournament, France will play well but Barthez will let them down at key moments. Argentina will be in 6s and 7s due to their shakey political situation, but will play well nonetheless and it'll help their economy in the short term. I predict everyone in Canada to get sick and tired of Canadian announcers within 10 mintues of the first kickoff. In the end England will defy all the odds and make it to the semi-finals, but Brazil will end up getting their 5th World Cup, over some african team like Cameroon or Nigeria or something.

Guest Low Roller Posted May 29, 2002 Report Share Posted May 29, 2002 Poland will win everything crushing Brazil in the finals in a humiliating defeat. Then I'll wake up and read that France or some other cheese producing country won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tissue Man Posted May 29, 2002 Report Share Posted May 29, 2002 argentina and france in the finals.. argentina the world cup victors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Boy 2.0 Posted May 29, 2002 Report Share Posted May 29, 2002 argentina-france would seem logical, being ranked nos. 1 and 2, and that's what happened in '98- the top 2 teams met in the finals, but I'm thinking there'll be a few more upsets this year. Different continent, crazy humidity, and all that free dog juice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tissue Man Posted May 29, 2002 Report Share Posted May 29, 2002 no more free dog juice or dogmeat on a stick.. the vendors were going to set up outside the venues but thought better of it. italy may sneak in they are always around and brazil has a chance but i doubt it.. i would love to see england win but they wont win this year. look for them to take the next euro cup in two years and the world cup in four years in germany..

Fink Posted May 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 The team that wins is the one with the least amount of injuries and plays well as a unit. I can wait till Friday 7:30 am kickoff!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey Boy 2.0 Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 Hey Puds I didn' know you're a Kaas Kop- damn shame they didn't make it, the tournament will be diminished as a result. Next time- they're due. Didn;t help that De Boer and Davids gt hose drug suspensions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 Hey Davey-Boy (or whoever else for that matter). I need a favour. I entered a World Cup office pool at work, assuming victory, solely based on the fact that I'm of a European denomination (Polish), and therefore know more about football than my Nova Scotian manager. I could use everybody's help in defeating this evil pointy-haired filibuster and letting righteousness win. Who to pick as striker, midfield, fullback, and keeper?

Davey Boy 2.0 Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 Whoa tough one, my Low Rolling phriend. When do you need said info? In the short term I'll direct you toward some good sources (you may have to drill down a bit): http://www.football365.com http://football.guardian.co.uk/ http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport/ http://www.footballpredictions.org.uk/ Granted these sites are UK oriented, but as I said it;s a starting point.

Guest Low Roller Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 By tomorrow, 5:00PM? I think I need to pick 5 of each (except keepers?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Boy 2.0 Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 So it''s accumulated points for the whole tourney, for each player chosen? How does it work with fullbacks and keepers? Email me the details and I'll give you my opinion sometime before 4pm tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 I'll send you the details from work tomorrow. (Remind me) I unfortunately don't have them at home. Cheers! (Go Poland!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
