    This is actually tough today. The Portugal/Brazil game should be interesting, except that both teams have already advanced and not sure if they're saving energy for the elimination rounds.

    I'm only going to bet on one game again.

    Swiss to win ~ 30 Jungs

    10 Scaramagos on a Portugal win
    and
    10 Dürrenmatts on a Switzerland win

    Portugal played very well. Was it me or was Brazil not all that impressive?

    Are you sure?

    You look like you are secretly wishing for a Spanish victory to me!

    I'm hoping for a Spanish victory tonight, could be close though.

    Oh, and tomorrow I get allowed back into the Lit Net competition again, which will be nice, though we are playing for second place with Kilted's stomping success.

    England Vs Germany Sunday...

    Go on, then. I'll join in and lose my coins asap.

    Kilted looks pretty hard to catch at this stage.

    I'll go 50 on each of Uruguay and Ghana.
    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    It's got to be all or nothing so:-


    100 on Urururururuguay

    And 200, assuming I have it, on the USA, as a gesture of solidarity with my wife.
