World Cup Update
Okay, I've stopped sulking over the Czech's early withdrawl. Possibly because in the office sweepstake I've got Germany and Italy and Chaucey's got Portugal.
I've looked at my picks from last month - I got 13 out of 16 in the round of 16, but none of the semifinalists. Considering I picked the Portugese to win last time, and France to win the time before (at least I got that one right) I'm going to stick to not picking winners of sporting competitions. (Labour could stop doing it for business - they're as good at it as I am at soccer.)
And I've decided that instead of a Penalty Shootout the captains should have a game of 'Rock-Paper-Scissors' to decide tied games - it's only slightly more farcical than the penalty shoot out.
Finally, Juan should have been sent off as he was only ever going for the player, not the ball. But Brazil lost anyway, so there is some natural justice.

Ahh yes. My picks are also well and truely buggered. Luckily I can revert to the team I always support in the cup and that is my beloved Germany. Even better as I can play up my German heritage and get invited to the German game parties to hang with the very hot frauleins!
