Alright, we're getting this started.

Although we'd love to pick Bafana Bafana, the home crowd vuvzelas won't be enough to lift this African side.

Adieu, Les Bleus! Hola MEXICO y URUGUAY!

Now that this is a professional production, I'm not sure I fit in here anymore... but we'll give it go.

I'm always anxious to see the French exit, but I think it'll have to be later in the tournament.

France and Uruguay...

Cantona says, "Enfin", cant believe it's already been 4 years.
France have had some patchy performances lately and a very strange coach. Thats exactly the kind of form needed to do well in the group stage.
Mexico are fun to watch, can they score enough?
I'm going for FRANCE and MEXICO.

It's time to commit! We think Uruguay y Mexico are moving ahead.

France: Will advance to the knockout stage and will then get knocked the f out

Uruguay: Probably should go with Mexico, but I need some points after going out on a limb with England. Time to reclaim your former glory, fellas!

Bollo said...

France will self-destruct in later rounds, but for now ...

France y Mexico!

Team Ethanslaves said...

This is the start of a bunch of boring selections for CCFC, but we're taking France & Mexico in Group A.

Since 1930, every country who hosted world cup has been through the group stage and moved to round of 16, however, the record seems to be broken in south africa. I'll go with France and Mexico.

One of these 6pt teams always advances - last time Ecuador - this time URUGUAY and MEXICO. France makes me very nervous tho.

eastern influence said...

Team EI (of course with a little family dispute...) picks MEXICO (surpised?) and ...... we'll go bold with SOUTH AFRICA.

Big Bend said...

(i'm proud of you schubin for picking mexico this time. you need to think of your sex life- probably more important than the pool cash....)

Wexfordcisco said...

On behalf of Ireland, it pains me to choose France. But I am happy to choose Mexico, so I will think about that instead.

France

Night Rider said...

It is very tempting to go with S.A., but I'm gonna choose France & Mexico.

Carlos Baena said...

Mexico and SouthAfrica.

France kicked our asses in the 2006 Worldcup. Still recovering myself from that match...
