2014 FIFA World Cup

If we were a team FIFA+refs want to win like Brazil we'd have had about 10 penalties in the cup so far :3

Can't help but think the flowering weather played a large part in England+Italy+Spain, three teams from Europe used to a totally different climate, being eliminated at the fortune of Costa Rica+Uruguay+Chile, three teams from South America used to Brazil's climate. Fifa should have seen this coming and done something about it. Luckily us yuros still have Germany+Holland+France to keep the trophy in Europe.

oh, and all the pro-South-American refball

Weather or time zone?

17/19 World Cup winning teams have come from countries from similar time zones as the host nation.

Exceptions being Pele's Brazil in 1958 and Ronaldo's Brazil in 2002.

Greece makes it!

I reckon timezones are just climate still having an effect.

The worst team in groups D, B and G would beat every team in their group 3-0.

Yeah, he's been caught like twice before.

Don't know how he hasn't been given a harsher penalty yet.

Protected species I tell ya, bloody Suarez. :P

should have his penis removed is what should happen

Ringo · June 25, 2014, 02:38:23 PM

Biters should be banned for 2 years minimum - No place for it in any sport and if a minimum penalty like 2 years was introduced would soon get rid of it.

tor01doc · June 25, 2014, 02:53:59 PM

Agree - 2 years for biters

and I hereby propose 1 year for suckers

and 6 months for lickers - except the Australian 'Ladies' Soccer team who will get a bonus for this offence.

He was the happiest man in the world this morning (or night, whatever time it was in Norway).
