There's a couple of us right behind you though so look out.

Non-tippers got 2 points for the first "round" of tips, so hails is no longer last.
Tonight's games:
Australia v Japan
USA v Czech Republic
Italy v Ghana
Tipping closes at 10.55pm again. Kickoff for Aussies v Japs is 11pm.

The Japs have accused the Aussie team of committing a lot of 'dirty fouls' which has Guus a bit peeved. Should be interesting. Hopefully the Japanese aren't dirty diving dickheads or there might be a lot of cards flying around.

I know, but still I am in first place after the first round!! I cannot believe it. I am not even sure what my basis for picking the teams is.

Well, this is their second World Cup in a row, so they can't be too bad.
I tipped USA because they might win and because I figured a lot of peeps would tip against them.

Retune the TV? Should pick it up again?

One person has Japan and one person has tipped Draw, the rest have Australia. Yay!
The OzTips site has been crushed out of existence though.

Is stabbing a bad ref in the face going to get me in trouble?
Suspecting there may be some red cards in the second half if things keep going like this.
If one of them is for a Jap taking a dive, I'll be gobsmacked, I will.

Didn't George W. Bush teach you anything? We Americans know what is right and best.

USA loses!! I knew it!! I knew it!!! Isn't 0-3 a really bad score in soccer? Meaning that the USA throughly got their bums kicked by the Czech Republic?

OMG... I just realized that because of this tipping game, I actually care who wins. Well, not enough to watch the games, but enough to check the outcomes. Excuse me a mo...

0-3 is pretty bad, yes. Aussies beat Japs 3-1 and the Japs didn't deserve the 1.

I care a bit more about games I wouldn't otherwise.
Still have no freaking clue who'll actually win most games, but I care!

On further thought, the above came out very American, didn't it? OMG... I can't run from my upbringing... Like you know, whatever (Lisa Simpson).... I think I have calmed myself again.

Still 1st, but I didn't do so well with those tips. 1 out of 3 sucks...
