In case you missed it, after France beat Brazil today in the World Cup, there are only four teams left: France, Portugal, Germany, and Italy. I’m glad it’s almost over. I sure have been watching too much soccer lately. I can’t believe Brazil lost. I think Germany is going to take the cup. They have the crowd advantage, and they seem to be the strongest team left. What do you think?

[...] We also watched the launch of the space shuttle online, played some Farkle, and then we caught the end of the game between Italy and Germany. What a finish! I guess my pick for the winner was off. The crazy thing is that the US tied Italy. I guess now, Portugal has a better chance of winning. [...]

Well, after missing most of the last two nights of sleep to watch the quarter finals I have seen three out four of my picks disappear. (Argentina, Brazil & England) Now I and many of my friends here in Singapore are agreeing with you that Germany will have the best chance of winning it all. Of course Portugal has the underdog position; one of the world’s best coaches; and they play with a lot of “passion” (read “roughness”). They could still pull it off…
Yeah, Portugal would be a good winner since they’re the only team left who’s never won it.
