thursday 1 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Not at all. It all comes down to luck. The final is too big in each player's life to take chances, so in fact, it could be the most boring game of the tournament. Link to post Share on other sites

The final is too big in each player's life to take chances, so in fact, it could be the most boring game of the tournament. that's usually the semi-finals. teams are too scared to lose so close to being in the final (where anything can happen) that they hardly ever go for it, snoresville games Link to post Share on other sites

big-will 7 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Yes WC finals can be drab and certainly the best team has a fine fine chance of losting. (Perhaps 50% even ) Link to post Share on other sites

rach 1 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Totally not interested in the World Cup at the moment. It's all about Sunday. Once the PL is over, I suppose the World Cup will provide some decent entertainment for the always-too-long off-season. I just dislike too many of the England players though. It's hard to get worked up about it. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I'm not interested in England. Want to see Brazil again. Link to post Share on other sites

bobby12 0 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Weird the Carra is back. He said no CL next year was part of the reason. If I was a player I'd be well pissed about it, sneaking in at the last minute. Link to post Share on other sites
