   Can someone please make a joke connecting Irish tears to alcohol/potatoes/gingers/The Plantation?

   I’m not witty enough to make such an obvious joke.

   I want the following to win:

   1. France – they make the WC better by losing to African teams.

   2. Ukraine – because they are more talented than the Greeks, actually care about attacking, and could cause upsets in the knockout rounds next year.

   3. Bosnia – because Portugal.

   4. Russia – I will only allow two former Yugoslavian republics in my World Cup. Also, too many people (read: Alexi Lalas) will confuse Slovenia with Slovakia.

   I am so salty that Screwstanta has all the play-off games. They’ll not take away my 2am New Zealand/Bahrain tilt though, oh no!

   EF: not bad, though some problems with your picks…

   1. France will choke
   2. Ukraine are relying on Suckchenko and Andrei Voronin for goals. Care to reconsider their attacking prowess?
   3. Would love to see this happen.
   4. Agree

   @Ned: um, it’s not that, it’s just I don’t like paying 15 dollars for a channel that doesn’t show that much good soccer

   Sure they do. Their picture is not in high def and their reg shows suck but they have 7 Prem games a week, thats what I pay my 15 smackers for.

    see, that’s the thing, Ned. As a new parent I need my 15 bucks for all the things you listed above! Don’t worry, I wait until the little fella is sound asleep before daring to do any of that!

    I didn’t think Voronin was even in the squad for the playoff.

    Yeah, 15 bucks is a box of diapers, i hear ya.

    Yep, Voronin is not in the squad. He asked to be left out so he could “fight for his place at Liverpool.”

    First, I don’t think he realizes Liverpool don’t have any games during the break.

    Two, he probably cost himself a shot at the WC roster if they make it right?

    Three, isn’t he just adorable with that persistence?

    Georger: funny thing is, no-one’s paying attention to his gallantry.

    Yeah I mean if anything this makes Ukraine better right?

    I’ll be rooting for Uruguay tomorrow night because Grant Wahl told me it would help the US get a seed. And because I’m a hopeless fool.

    @Ryan: one of these days I’m going to be really drunk, and that avatar is going to start talking to me. And really, really evil things will happen. And my only defense will sound stupider than that “Twinkies” defense Harvey Milk’s killer used…
