Are you absolutely sure you posted this in the right thread? That's not a "what you did today", unless of course you were taking the pictures. Either that or this is a really, really crude way of announcing your new relationship status.

That must've been rather a bit awkward: "US exchange student pulled from Tubingen university marble vagina" Story here: http://www.news.com.au/world/us-exchange-student-pulled-from-tubingen-university-marble-vagina/story-fndir2ev-1226963283491

Or a U.S. - Russia match if Russia manages to win against Algeria. That ought to be fun too.

I certainly hope so, but you never know. Germany might want to do the honourable thing and try to win. Which would suck.

The good news is that both the U.S. and Germany could just go for a draw in the last match and they would both go through. Maybe not great sportsmanship, but hey.

What a shame.

Hah! A lot of people are rejoicing now, and not just in the U.S.!

The 1-1. Exactly what this game needed.

U.S.A. so unlucky there.

Speaking of cringeworthy, that looked painful. Portuguese defending straight from the manual.

Cringeworthy defending there.

Not many of those sound believable to me. Then again, sometimes conspiracy theories are actually true.

They're the team that's looked the best so far, I'd put Colombia second. That said, there's plenty of precedent for teams starting out weak and playing themselves into great form throughout the tourney. If this tournament has taught me anything so far is that there seem to be no favourites. France does look good, but how will they fare against tougher opponents? As for Colombia... Eh, no. I don't see it. Edit: That being said, I'm still sticking with Germany at least reaching the finals. They may have played a ... less than spectacular game, but I still think they have the metal.

Poor Iran, they really did not deserve to lose this.

The thing is, we keep spiders around to keep us safe from spiders. We let the Daddy Longlegs (Pholcidae) stay because they hunt down and eat the dangerous spiders such as Redbacks. Truly man's best friend. Hmm. Spiders as pets.

? Not sure how this makes any sense. Do you mean that this group has honduras as a *easy* challenge? As for the game. We lost after 7 minutes. That injury threw off thhe players / any strategy. Mericless assassination and easy pickings afterwards. How the world cup for us continues depends solely on if the swiss players can get over what happened today. They are certainly not living up to their potential / what they have shown during qualification so far, though. I mean that even though Switzerland is, to me, the only team that deserves the second place in the group, France is so much more superior. It's a very unbalanced group.

Poor Swiss, they are having a rough evening. It says a lot about this group that the Swiss can still go through.

Good work by the keeper.

Oh my, that should have been the 1-2.

I always find the beginning bit where all the players fold their arms a bit funny. It's like you've done something bad and they all want to show their disapproval. From 0-0 to 0-2 in what feels like less than two minutes. Well, that was fast.

Costa Rica absolutely deserved it, well done to them. Italy looked really uninspired.

You're a die-hard watching that match. I'll watch anything, but I am sooo skipping that.
