Coupled in the wagering with unlimited substitution? No one wants that exacta?

 

Why don't they make the goal bigger?

 

Yeah and Bob Fitzgerald is a dumbass. He also said AT&T's right field should be brought in because the Giants needed to hit more homers to win. Now that the Giants have one of the best home records he isn't complaining about the home run totals. He's back to sniffing Brandon Belt's jock.

 

I really liked that play this game where Shaqiri was on the right side, faked to the outside and then put a ball in with his left foot. Arjen Robben is less predictable.

 

Tie-breakers will be crazy with 16 three-team groups. Some groups will end in three-way ties. Teams better score a lot of goals and not get a lot of cards.

Can't wait till the first team advances to the knockout round with no wins and two draws, beating the other 0-2-0 teams by tiebreaker.

@cjericho , if you have some rules changes to combat the flopping, I am all ears.

 

The problem with flopping is that it works. You force the ref to make a decision and they will often err on the side of a foul because slight contact of someone moving quickly could cause them to fall.
