[quote="mjmaherjr" post=289837][quote="sirvoo" post=289836][quote="mjmaherjr" post=289835][quote="sirvoo" post=289834]When the draw came out we circled France-Brazil as the game we most wanted to see in Saint Petersburg. Really at this point I’ll take either opponent against France as both Brazil and Belgium are loaded. Thinking this could be a real shootout/blowout tempted to say 4-1 Brazil.[/quote] How do you like Russia ?[/quote]

Haven’t arrived yet! Will fly from Greece to Saint Petersburg on Sunday evening. Eager to get there for sure.[/quote] Put some pics up when you get there[/quote]

Absolutely will do. Looking forward to this game right now some potential for fireworks.
 
Could’ve been the 2 best teams in the tournament going toe to toe right there. Brazil maybe were unlucky to not get the game to extra time but Belgium were clinical in attack and were far more efficient.
 
Suarez and Neymar out on the same day. Prince Harry gets a goal.

Courtois was outstanding.

Belgium France semi should be a barn burner. Go Bruges.:)
 
Neymar is the Greyson Allen of soccer.

The real game is tomorrow! Heading to the pub at 2. It should be a blast.

have fun, but the real game was earlier today and the next real game is Tuesday.:) ;)

For everyone's sanity there, hope it doesn't go to PKs again.

Nice win, England dominated and Sweden were ineffectual on the offensive end.
 
Nice win for England. I thought the game was kind of boring personally. Now the Maher blood feud starts. I have Russia in my office pool and my parents have Croatia :)

I would love if Russia-England met in the semi finals. It was 2 years ago that a full Gangs of New York brawl erupted in the streets of Marseille at the last Euro’s. Go England!
 
The Russia Croatia game was a war of attrition. Croatia two straight OT and PK games, don't know how much they've got left in the tank and Subicic will be questionable.

By comparison England has had a walk in the park.

My pick for the finals: Belgium and, regrettably, England.
 
Thought virtually the entire game was boring but the last 15 minutes or so holy shit. Mom and Dad Maher beat Mjmaher but as long as I make sure they dont spend the potential winnings I'll inherit it in 20 years

If Russia shoots missiles like they do kicks the cold war was over a long time ago
 
How long before the Putin orders the Russian team players, coaching staff and the referees shot in front of a firing squad for losing at home? :unsure: :dry:

I''m thinking the ones who weren't singing the anthem in the pre-game are on their way to the gulag right now.;)

Inheritance??????? How much was the bet for?:)
