Should we unban KB, at least until the tournament is over?
where is natsia?
No idea, but if she's still dating the FedEx guy, she'll be there by 10:30 tomorrow.
no idea why that Runaway Bride quote came to mind, but it works :p
Who is KB?
Koolbabs.
...a 1 - 1 draw in the USA v England match. Nice work.
If not for that post, it would've been a 2-1 USA win.
Yes, it would have.Quote:

We didn't lose... but we have to win the next two or so.
this is a bit interesting - group predictor
....they predict a 70% chance of the US proceeding to the knockout stage, while they say Australia only has 48% chance.
I honestly don't know if that was a joke or a soccer term.Quote:

A 4-0 loss is not something that inspires confidence.
Will Serbia riot again?
It inspires confidence that Germany will be a front-runner!Quote:

:D yes it does. I knew it would be a match we (Australia) would probably lose, but I was still hoping for a miracle, or at least only one goal up ...but not four :(Quote:

Now Australia needs to beat both Serbia and Ghana to get out of the groups stage. A hard task.
