    Same thing was said in '83 when the unbeatable Houston Cougars got it handed to them by Jim Valvano and NC State. Just wish games would be settled with the entire team on the field instead of penalty kicks...regardless of long the game might be.

    Don't think Argentina will roll over, playing dead. So everything can happen on Sunday.
    Hope you're right tho :D

    Watched all of the game yesterday. Even though no scoring til the shootout, it was still a good game to watch. Got to wonder with Germany having an easy game vs Brazil and Argentina playing all out til the end vs the Dutch if the the Germans have the favor going their way in the final. If I'm home I'll watch it.

    That's not fair. The World Cup is every 4 years. If anything, Brazil would have the equivalent of 20 Super Bowls :D

    I wonder how many death threats Zúñiga and his family have gotten since he took out Neymar.

    Hey, @ragman , did you hear there was a Brazilian street performer playing Sultans Of Swing there? You should post the video if you can find it.

    Suarez will play for Real Madrid next season. The Spanish club will pay €75,000,000 / $102,000,000 compensation, to buy him out of his contract. Terms about his contract, are not disclosed yet. Biting your opponent, seems to boost your market value :D

    I was under the impression that Barcelona bought him. Real Madrid's standards are higher, please ;)

    Real Madrid is after James "You don't pronounce it like that" Rodriguez. He'll cost about the same, but there's a lot less risk involved...and, you know, he's not suspended until november...

    FYI, I posted the video again today because when I checked to see last night if anyone here had anything to say about it, I saw that the video I posted yesterday had been removed.

    Ahhh...gotcha.

    I hate how the guy wears a Yankees hat to help get some of those American tourist bucks.

    I think the video is amazing because English is probably not this guy's first language.
