World cup

So what's the over/under line on hooligans getting thrown out of the country?

Or the number of people trampled to death?

I think soccer is a great game for kids to play but I can't watch more than a few minutes of it on TV

I second that.;)

Americans will never like football.
They have too short attention spans.
It also doesn't lend itself to advertising donuts and crap food during commercial breaks.

England 4 USA 1.

England too strong.

England will win.

I disagree... we can advertise the piss out of "donuts" during commercials and even while the game is in play... still plenty of ways to infuse capitalism into this game...
