Nicholas this 'thing' --these points-- really, really hurt me: 25 (41.6%) Sad

Please, I know this football is not your American football but would you be ok in joining us here, and in both pools?! AND FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER!

The WC 2K18 deserves to have your contributions, remember this; people are saying the end times could be very, very soon (you know that?!) Grin

So, maybe this WC is the last one, I don't know and I don't think, but just in case-- come on, 'cause it's your (last Grin

) chance!

This game is fun Nick and I'm very interested in seeing your predictions, I'm serious so please just say ok!-- if you dare cross that line---->

<---And what did you say about "the Red, White, and Blue"..., however you can still score points! Wink

(we're shit at soccer) In 2014 we had to go with the Netherlands, Spain and Chile, and year won't be any easier.

Basically when you're shit you get seeded with good teams in the groupstage. That's how that kind of competition works. Tongue

You did well in 2006 in a group which was not easy though, and got beaten in round of 16 by the future world champion thanks to a dubious penalty at the very last minute…

The feeling of being a world champion is intoxicating, and I didn't want to ever not be the world champion again. Then I realized it didn't matter that much since I had nothing more to prove and achieved my most important goal(s).

…

Unless you happen to be the hosts, in which case you get seeded with even shitter teams in the group stage. A problem at this World Cup, and an even worse problem at the next one.

Nah they gonna be giving qatari citizenships away to about every half-decent football player they can find and build a somewhat ok team with that like they did when they hosted the handball world cup (they still reached the final there tho so who knows what might happen)

When this happened in handball, I remember everyone saying this couldn't happen in football because you cannot play that easily for a national team of a country you have nothing to do with.

I also remember everyone saying Qatar couldn't possibly be selected to host the world cup yet here we are. Never forget how easily FIFA can be corrupted.

True dat. BUT it's less hard to corrupt FIFA to make sure you organize World Cup than making top class players join Qatar in order to set up a great squad. They can find a great coach by overpaying him (Zidane?) but I have very, very high doubts when it comes to the players question.

Talking about world cup hosts, pretty much the whole of North America has just been selected to host the 2026 edition. Feels like they wanted to go from an extreme to another size-wise (Qatar is like four times smaller than Wales).
