This should be a good game. I want Costa Rica to fail all the time but they have a Nicaraguan (my Parents are Nicaraguan) playing for them now so I can't want them to fail as much. They looked good against Uruguay but I think Uruguay was just crap that game for whatever reason. This game can end in a draw. 1-1 or something.

Time for Mario to shine

Dude was answering a question in English b/c it was asked in English. His manager said no stopped him and told him in Italian.

Not sure what to expect out of this match. I thought Costa Rica looked pretty good against Uruguay, but not sure if that's bc Uruguay's defense is so bad. I want a draw, just to frick England over.

Only interesting match today and I'll be watching the DVR for it :-/

Like Mexican children born in the USA to illegal immigrant parents I suppose. All Americans love them and make them feel so welcome.

So far in this tournament I've enjoyed watching France, Colombia, and Germany the most. France has a ton of talent, and while they miss Ribery at least Benzema is scoring goals. They could make a deep run. Oh, and Pogba = BEAST
