2010 World Cup Predictions
| Four years ago, I predicted 12/16 teams right to advance to the round of 16. I missed Ecuador/Ghana/Switzerland/Ukraine, picking Poland/USA/South Korea/Tunisia instead. I did get France going to the final, though I predicted Brazil to defeat them to win the title. Eight years ago, I also got one of the final two correct (picked England over Germany). Let's see if I can keep that streak going. I'll be posting more thoughts on the groups over the next week, but for now I'll just post the picks. In the meantime, this is always the best time to read American soccer articles, even if they're not about the World Cup. Seems like the journalists are in World Cup form as well. I recommend checking these out if you haven't already:

post a commentYou're one of the few people I've seen to pick South Africa to advance. I'm right there with you.
But I also think that the Africa effect will happen, and one of the other African teams will make it to the quarterfinals.
I agree with most of your picks (maybe not Chile over Honduras), but your Group A selections are way out there. Remember, France BARELY qualified (hand of Henry!) and RSA as #2???? I would pick Mexico and Uruguay.
Also, way too much faith in Messi. I see Spain/England final with Arg crashing out maybe in the first KO round depending on how Group A finishes. Just MHO.
voros waited to run his until all the friendlies were done. He has some of his stuff updated now. And is supposed to post his predictions today sometime.
i like your picks. so few people know that a european nation has never won outside of europe. I have argy and brasil in the final too.
This kind of weather was predicted by scientist, Mojib Latif who last year predicted that earth was going to cool off for the next 20-30 years.The cooling would be the result of changes to ocean currents and temperatures in the North Atlantic, a feature known as the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the NAO may be partly the cause of warming during the past 30 years.
