world cup thread

So glad I know not to bet. Wish I could learn not to get emotionally invested as well.

I only get invested when I bet. I used to get so emotionally invested in sports as kid, especially soccer since I played. But now I just like it cause it's a good way to get together with friends over a couple beers.

Has everyone seen the results for the Argentina vs Mexico game? Wanna share a meme, but don’t want to share spoilers.

[Sweet Lil Buttercup]

Lol, I’m always worried about spoiling endings for people.

tomorrow its ,Japan vs Costa Rica , Belgium vs Morocco . Canada vs Croatia ,  Germany vs Spain

[Barney048]

Man I feel like Croatia's gonna go down against Canada. I have the same feeling I had before the Iceland vs. England game in 2016. But I ignored it then, so bet wisely boys and girls. 

[Barney048]

This world cup is turning into a parody. I wish I had opened up a betting pool. I'd have made a fortune, sigh

[MissNMTX]

Love the meme! I was afraid, because football can make feelings intense, but I love it! The personalities for Mexico are more fun for sure.

Great job to Costa Rica. Shock for Belgium, and never underestimate Croatia. I have to say the matches really are more fun, when you don't have an investment emotional or otherwise.

Spain vs. Germany next up. Hoping it's the promised show.

[beanbean]

i think there is a good chance Urguay could win

[MissNMTX]

Terrible news about the landslide in Cameroon. Just as the country was celebrating. Match it's over yet, but looks like Brazil is feeling their injuries.

[MissNMTX]

The knockout round is shaping up nicely.

[MissNMTX]

The extra time on both halves of the US match was nuts. That said, England and USA both through so the knockout stage really is shaping up. (Sorry if I'm spoiling.)

US has really impressed me with there shape and passing they of course need to work on there final ball, but i would not expect them to lay down vs the Dutch

No worries @gigisweetheartthe knockout stage will most likely clear out any stragglers.(USA likely included) the God's of Football can be so fickle and dramatic sometimes!
