NBO: World Cup BIF

HOLLAND!!!

 

I'm guessing we're not including retroactive red cards? If so, Costa.

 

Pablo Zabaleta

 

I'll go with Pepe (Portugal)

 

Also, does anyone else feel like they're completely f'd or is it just me?

 

If Spain gets second place in their group and Brazil gets first, they'll play each other each round which seems to be 60% of everyone's finals matchup.

 

Shot in the dark for the LIF, Yaya Toure: Ivory Coast (Cote d'Ivoire).

 

No idea but I'll pick Mario Balotelli.

EDIT: does this include soft red (two yellows) or just a hard red card?

 

Damn, I didn't even see the tiebreaker box and left it at zero. We will see how that goes.

 

has to include 2 yellows, because after the ref shows the 2nd he always pulls the red. essentially 2 yellows = a red.

4 GAMES TODAY!!!!!!

 

Ouch. I knew those 'follow directions tests' in grade school would come in handy some day.. always read the directions first.

 

Yes--red is red.

 

OK, 2 out of 3, still made money. Really wrong about Spain. Who saw that coming?!?

Today: Greece, Uruguay, Italy and Japan.

 

I'll guess Kevin Grosskreutz... complete shot in the dark

 

Michael Umana from Costa Rica for the Red Card.

 

Today I will take Columbia, Uruguay, Eng-Ita draw and Ivory Coast

 

I think there may be multiple draws today. Don't be surmised if the Pura Vida Costa Ricans draw with Uruguay though that's a bit risky.

 

Put me in for Gary Cahill. I predict a terrible call will undeservingly result in red.

 

No clue here, but shot I'll go with Giancarlo Gonzalez, Costa Rica
