bob1959: I guess I'll cheer on the English. They seem the underdogs and Americans LOVE and underdog. I'm a little partial to the English these days anyway.
Who will you be cheering for when England play their first game?
I will cheer for the Brits, Scouts honor. I won't know whats going on, but I'll cheer for the Brits. Black and white Ball in the goal is a good thing...Right?

You could cheer for the Brits, but the Scots, Welsh and the Northern Irish are not playing...just not good enough you see.

Well I have to support our Bafana Bafana team although they're waaaaaaaaaay down the totem pole! You never know what could happen on the day though!!! If/when they get knocked out, I am hoping England win it. My two sons reckon Spain or Portugal... Today we were at Sandton Square in our soccer paraphernalia and got interviewed on Thailand National TV!!! We were asked whether we think SA will beat Mexico in the first match and my two little boys and friend all said YES. I said I thought it could be a tough match as Mexico did after all beat Italy!!! The journalist then said: Yes, SA do have a good chance - they did beat Denmark after all! Whereupon my 8 year old pipes up: Yeah, but Denmark suck!!!! A bit embarrassing!
bob1959: Do you think there's a chance the referee will throw a flag and the drunk spectators will storm the field in a giant brawl? (rubs hands together)
It already started there was stampede today for the friendly between nigeria and north korea..
I had a good look at a photo of Ronaldo, he DOES have facial hair, you can still use that red hot tweezer
well... it seems you have a good reason to bet for Portugal. Following the logic I have to bet for South Africa. The history indicates the local team is the one with more chances to win.
