I don't understand when athletes do things like this.  They KNOW there are a dozen TV cameras on them and potentially thousands of cell phones and what have you....do they think they are going to get away with it?  Is it just heat of the moment ignorance and they don't think about the millions of people watching them? 

This guy should never play organized sport again.

And he's done the biting thing before. The bite from a year ago was very well publicized. He's just a sick person and should be banned from the sport.

Relax. It's not like he actually injured anyone.

Get the trolls out of here. You don't like the sport. Leave.

And that bite wasn't the first!

Someone should clatter him. Badly. Studs first. At the knee.

Exactly and exactly.

I said it elsewhere and I'll say it here: Argentina have not been impressive. That said, I'll probably agree with Lief and likely predict that they'll be in the Final.

Everyone read Ann Coulter's take on Soccer in America? Of course, she goes on about how it's a LIBURUL sport and "proof of moral decay." Hahaha.

Hats off to the U.S. and their real fans around here (even if they also annoy me a lot of the time). The U.S. will lose to Belgium but I could see them winning. If they won, they'd surely be finished in the Quarter finals.

What really gets me is the disingenuous nature of so many of the Soccer haters: they mock how you can move on in the tournament after losing but several of those idiots that I have personally encountered follow the NHL which also has a points system. Hell, they get points for an (overtime) loss!

A Spiegel Online article speculates that the Ramadan - which starts today - could give Germany an advantage in the upcoming match against Algeria.

On the day of the game, Algerian players will only be allowed to eat and drink about half a hour after the match has already started. That is if the Algerians follow the rules of the Ramadan to the letter. German Muslim players Mesut Özil and Sami Khedira don't give a f**k and do not intend to fast during the world cup.

Wow. So Germany might win 7-0 as opposed to 4-0?

I'm telling you, Colombia will win this tournament and they absolutely deserve it. I'm also glad because of the heavy Serie A presence. Smiley

Can someone explain me what happened with Italia?
I read that the match against Uruguay was contested.

It was formally contested? I didn't hear that. It would make sense though since FIFA's ruling on the Suarez incident stated that Suarez should have been sent off and that was almost right before the goal.

Disgusting team full of cheats from a horrible country.

Well, yes. You (Germany) will have a fun time with them in the Third Place match.
