England will only make it to the eighth final. There they will lose yet another penalty shootout against Germany. :P

Darren McCarty's wasn't much better though - pushing Lemieux to the boards and managing to knee him in the head. I long for the glory days, where we can deliver good clean hits on Detroit and start the melee all over again!

"Brawl in Hockey Town" Part 3?
Matches between those two teams where always exciting to watch back then. But then I slowly lost interest in ice hockey. :/

Do you love Denver sports teams for some reason? And oh yeah did you check out the World Cup Schedule. What's up with that!

Haha, Coop likes Denver sports teams and I seem to like Detroits sport teams. I also have a soft spot for the Pistons. ^^

Yeah, but I guess from the above statements that you don't like the Tigers (baseball) and I'm not sure about the Lions (NFL) Does Detroit have an MLS team?

Well, american football is almost as boring to watch as baseball, but I my favorite team in the NFL are the Minnesota Vikings. But that's just because I had a baseball cap (well, should be called "football cap" ^^) when I was younger. Then some douche tried to steal it from me and I never wore it again. ^^

Tssk. The only interesting match in the entire group phase is Portugal - Brazil =/ I find most of the other groups pretty sad and uninteresting to be honest.

I was also glad our country still got Denmark as an opponent. At least we got a little bit of competition now. I don't expect much from Japan and Cameroon to be honest.

Well, you shouldn't underestimate Japan and Cameroon. I think they are stronger than Denmark. But everything but to win this group would be a huge disappointment for Holland.

Same goes for Germany in their group, Serbia and Ghana are dangerous opponents, but Germany should win this group.

Anyway, I wish they just got rid of the protected status for awesome countries... I'd rather have a group of death with Holland, Brazil, Italy and Germany than only having interesting matches near the finals. It already seems predetermined who's gonna get to the second round and who isn't.

Yeah, but it's about the money, not the sport. Or more about the money than the sport. The TV rights for a final "Brazil vs Spain" could be sold much better to other countries than say "Denmark vs New Zealand".

My parents just use the same fucking crap year after year after year.

I never decorated my room and I won't do it this year either. :)

Too bad you forgot then. :P Also, this also means I write better posts about Christmas.

This only means I think your posts are better in general than mine. That doesn't mean that you post better posts than me on every topic. :P

I believe it does and I believe it means I'm right about the shitblade being shit and how you get angry everytime you achieve something.

Well, you are wrong once again, but you already know that. :P

OVERKILL!

Quite so.
But speaking of Overkill, this is just another band I have to check out. I've seen them at Wacken Open Air a few years ago, but the sound was awful.

Give The Years of Decay a try but maybe not listen to Elimination first as that sounds very much alike to Master of Puppets and The Four Horsemen/Mechanix.

Again, too much stuff to buy and only so little money to spend. :(

You sure Hanukkah isn't celebrated in Germany in the slightest?

I don't know. I don't know any jewish people, but I'm sure they celebrate Hanukkah and not Christmas. But I thought we where just talking about when there are breaks from school and stuff. And I don't get a break from uni for Hanukkah or any other jewish holidays.

It's so for Christmas but not Hanukkah? BIAS!

Germany have a tough task - none of the teams in Group D will just roll over. Ghana's the best team in Africa at the moment and the Serbs aren't a bad side. Group B is full of dark horses and Group A could throw up a surprise or two. Mexico and Uruguay are good teams at present. You can never write off a double world champion, after all.

I was also glad our country still got Denmark as an opponent. At least we got a little bit of competition now. I don't expect much from Japan and Cameroon to be honest.

Cameroon are another country to be worried about - not as potent as the Ivory Coast, with Drogba

Humbug! My niece's first sight of the trees will be later today and we've got an obnoxious Santa Claus that dances and sings Jingle Bells. How much does her first Xmas mean to me? I changed the freaking batteries!

Why these obnoxious pieces of crap ever get made is beyond me.

Because they are great Xmas presents for someone else! You can leave them to make noise at other people's houses and watch, as they get thrown out of windows.

You sure Hanukkah isn't celebrated in Germany in the slightest?

"Hey, Kwanzaabot, where you off to?
Ah, you didn't hear about it? Chanukah Zombie's having a luau at the B'nai Brith! You comin'?"

This is where Futurama gets respect. They acknowledge the other December holidays unlike the majority of the population today.

That's because they've got quite a few Jewish writers, but Kwanzaa just got in there, because it was a good character for Coolio :P

Indeed but three 6's works well or even better, six 6's. That's whenever you get 666,666 total points.

I think none of those countries are title candidates or anything. It will already be a sensation if any of them even makes it to the semi's. Therefore it is indeed a disappointment for both Holland and Germany if they would not win their groups. And in all the other groups there's a similar situation, except the group with Brazil and Portugal.

Anyway, I wish they just got rid of the protected status for awesome countries... I'd rather have a group of death with Holland, Brazil, Italy and Germany than only having interesting matches near the finals. It already seems predetermined who's gonna get to the second round and who isn't.

Hmm I thought Ivory Coast was considered the best African country at the moment. Which makes it very nice that they ended up in a group with Portugal and Brazil. But I'm not very familiar with the african teams. All I know is that I wouldn't bet my money on any of them making it to the finals.

The Serbs are a decent team I guess. But aren't most of their good players retired by now? Kovacevic, Kezman and players like that?

Group B is full of dark horses and Group A could throw up a surprise or two. Mexico and Uruguay are good teams at present. You can never write off a double world champion, after all.

Mexico has always had a decent team. Although I can't think of any Mexicans right now playing for major clubs. But yeah I guess they would be an underdog, which makes them a dangerous opponent.

Uruguay I do not expect that much from, but I'm interested in those matches since Suarez will be playing for them. Suarez being the topscorer for my favorite club (Ajax) and the topscorer of the dutch competition. He was well underway of making at least 40 goals by the end of the season, but sadly he hasn't scored much in the last few matches. He's currently at 17 goals out of 16. Anyway, I'd like to see how well he does on WC level.

I was also glad our country still got Denmark as an opponent. At least we got a little bit of competition now. I don't expect much from Japan and Cameroon to be honest.

Yeah, but those contries are still dangerous opponents. Especially the african teams, I think people will root for them just because they are from an african country (ie people from South Africa will root for Ghana, and so on). This will make the african teams pretty strong, I think.

And what else have we been debating about... hmm... Manowar, the awesomeblade... and... christmas... and... well, that's about it, right? -.-

Give The Years of Decay a try but maybe not listen to Elimination first as that sounds very much alike to Master of Puppets and The Four Horsemen/Mechanix.

Again, too much stuff to buy and only so little money to spend. :(

Why not go to some online radio site like Spotify or Last.fm (if it's free for you, that is)?

Why shouldn't last.fm be free for me? But yeah, it's a good tip, I will do that tomorrow. :)

It's so for Christmas but not Hanukkah? BIAS!

Lol, I don't think you get a break for christmas in countries with a jewish background either. :P

How about countries with a fair amount of Christians and Jewish people?

Are there any? ^^

Doublelisted, Triplelisted, Quadlisted; it all refers to achieving 10,000 points in a particular stat. For NEVR, he has achieved at least 10k Posts, 10k Saves, 10k Experience, and just now 10k Blams.

They are all 'listed', in this thread.

ACHIEVEMENT OF THE DAY?

I am humbled, sir. And yes, I did OK on it... I was HOPING to get it yesterday when I first posted in the pentalist topic, but wasn't quite sure if it could happen or not. Looks like I haven't completely lost my B/Ping abilities ;P

Looks like the "achievement of the day" thing is quite popular these days. Thankee to you, nonetheless.

But no, the TRUE list of statwhores is the Pentalist (aka, the ~X~ list). Something which I will more that likely never achieve. :(

It's to do with the pentalist that gfox originally created. Basically means I have four 10k+ stats.

I'm just too lazy to bother explaining things anymore. Most of the time when I go to explain something in a thread in these forums now, someone else will beat me to the punch ;_;

Anyway, thanks for all the mentions guys. Much <3

So long as your cold doesn't result in you going on a Night Nurse bender, then crashing a small hatchback into the Irish Sea, while carrying a precious cargo of Ross Kemp, it's a bright side.

Hmm I thought Ivory Coast was considered the best African country at the moment. Which makes it very nice that they ended up in a group with Portugal and Brazil. But I'm not very familiar with the african teams. All I know is that I wouldn't bet my money on any of them making it to the finals.

Well, we all thought that about Senegal in Japan / Korea. They went on to beat the reigning World Champions in France and then all the way to the Quarter finals. I'd say we can expect something from Cameroon, Nigeria, Ghana and the Ivory Coast.

Because they are great Xmas presents for someone else! You can leave them to make noise at other people's houses and watch, as they get thrown out of windows.

DeviI for Most Underrated

The term 'overrated underrated' is simply a contradiction. Anyone who gets called both overrated and underrated are pretty much in between and that's how I feel. Next time, just save the Most Underrated nomination for someone else.

Nah, you're an easy underrated pick. I think I mentioned it in the discussion thread what it would take to get you off of there.

I appreciate it but surely there are those who are even more underrated than I am.

Last.fm had to limit their radio services due to license troubles. I just checked and you're good to listen to their radio stations for free.

wismty: 7th NG Anniversary

but who am I to argue. Just think of me in a few days when I have my 7 year NG anniversary though, and again a few days later when I hit Level 40. Love your work, Cheers, GJ.

Well no, because I stated a couple of months ago that I would never give them to (NG) anniversary's. Reason being that they actually require no effort.

So even if there was a Safety Patrol vs 10 Years on NG, I would still give it to the Safety Patrol

Getting fifty to actually vote might be on overly optomistic. It seems there isn't too many people active here at the moment. I think we should shelve this idea for now.

I think you're right, 50 might be a little too optimistic :p We got like.. 15 regulars and .. 10 still active members? So I guess we would be lucky if we even get half of that 50 to vote.

Yeah, but those contries are still dangerous opponents. Especially the african teams, I think people will root for them just because they are from an african country (ie people from South Africa will root for Ghana, and so on). This will make the african teams pretty strong, I think.

That's true. Usually the country that hosts the tournament gets pretty far (except Austria and Switzerland :p) I also heard several coaches and football journalists claim that an African country will win the cup this time.

So I guess some of them are in an underdog position, which might bring them far in the tournament.
