Glad the World Cup ends soon...

...and 95% of the topics about this moronic sport will disappear. I dream about a day when people will bet only on American sports, where the odds are better, the games are far less rigged, you get more action, more fair-play and is far easier to get a decent win.

In my opinion soccer threads should never be directed on the Players Talk forum...they should be limited to the soccer forum, keep the plague from infesting the whole SBR.

NBA and tennis aren't rigged? You've got a Commissioner dictating championships in the former and players fixing matches in the latter. You'll never escape it.

can you show me where I said the NBA and tennis are not rigged, please ?

You said 'the games are far less rigged'. And to that statement I disagree. Anyone who thinks World Cup soccer is more rigged than the NBA or tennis must not follow either sport that closely in my opinion. Asian soccer or soccer in a few Eastern European countries? Yes, there's obvious fixing going on but in the World Cup? There may be a little but to state there is 'far less' in American sports is inaccurate.

This is the time when soccer forum gets quiet and you can actually learn a few things on how to make money betting soccer.

This guys a moron. Ur pretty much saying that you could give a dam about world competitions. Such as olympics, (hockey basketball) or world baseball classic. Wathcin games that are national televised over the world or the most exciting. I wasnt that into the soccer until i saw some of the plays and the goals. Soccer is an easy money maker. Im like 75% in my fifa bets this year

National leagues are very different from World Cup
more, more, more difficult to predict and poor odds

[Art Vandelay]

A real sophisticated sports fan can appreciate the magnitude of the WC - a World Championship every 4 years! All other pro sports are yearly and don't crown a true WORLD champion. Sorry to see the Cup end on Sunday...

Rugby too every 4 years
and more interesting and beautiful
