Argentina looks like they are out

**packerd_00** · 06-21-18, 02:48 PM

I never expected much from Argentina this WC,they just got in by the skin of their teeth.You and I Laker had this talk months ago when they were having serious trouble scoring.

What’s with Iceland? So many people I hear saying they’re supporting them. Population 1500 so I assume they have some hot ring-in’s?!

Also great call about Argentina. Although in here a few agreed outside in the normal world most did not

got behind iceland after the performance at the euros, was a great story small country and they have really put alot of money into soccer program last few years, sad that they are doing so much better than the united states with our resources, also that viking clap is pretty sweet

Yes but Germany is actually in worse shape because they have no points. Argentina at least had a point coming in today.

I thought you were a Soccer guy ?

Germany will be just fine. Check your history books from the beginning of the World Cup. Germany are THE winningest country of all time. Saturday will be no different. Its a testiment to the deep winning tradition when people like yourself post crazy headlines when they actually lose a game. Its true.....ITS BIG NEWS. But no need to think that chicken Little was right. The sky isnt falling........

Just smoke a fatty ( but dont tell JJGold

) and watch what happens when The Germans NEED a win.

Franz you aren't seeing what is happening. The Germans are too young and unathletic. They are slow. Sweden will beat them.

You cant be serious. TOO YOUNG ? The nucleus of our last World Cup ( CHAMPS by the way ) are still here. Unathletic ? What a crazy statement to make.

yes but wouldn't you rather have 0 points with 2 games left than 1 point with one game left?

With the way games played, this wc is utter failure. Mexicans played great game but they hardly produce consistent results. Germans will adjust it and come back strong. I would not be surprised this wc won by either Germany or Spain.

**franz555** · 06-21-18, 08:58 PM

My daughter is getting married on Saturday , so i will see you here on Sunday to review the accuracy of your comments.
Sweden are a very organized side that play extremely tight on D. Stil....... See you Sunday

Enjoy the game Sven LOL

Dwight come on man. Argentina had one point after one game. Germany has zero.

Oh my God.

Let me make this better.

After one game played

Germany 0 points
Argentina 1 point.

**DwightShrute** · 06-21-18, 09:15 PM

2 games left

1 game left

But all of your comments in the past few hours are still saying the same thing.

When you typed this only a short time ago......... You are still saying that GERMANY ARE IN WORSE SHAPE knowing that Argentina lost today.

I KNOW IT WAS!!!!

Now that its one game left for Argentina and 2 for Germany was the post.

I give up!

**lakerboy** · 06-21-18, 09:23 PM

Okay this place has weird people.

The thread was made last night.

Germany and argentina were declared done by me last night.

Argentina is pretty much done barring a great string of results.

Germany is in worse shape then argentina after one game having no points compared to the 1 argentina had.

Germany isn't beating Sweden.

Germany is +305 to win the group so that option is pretty much done.

Germany is slow and unathletic. It was evident in the first game. The swedes got confidence after beating a crap Korea outfit. The swedes will match Germany physically.

Germany need to score early or doubt will creep in.

My point here is obvious .

Would you rather have 1 point after one game or 0?

**bhoor** · 06-21-18, 09:25 PM

No wonder STEM is America's life support.
