The orange (holland) aren't in.

 

And yet we get to watch the Saudi Arabians score nil.

 

It's ok, they got the oil money, I could bet any money putins at that game for sure.

 

Falconry is cute in the desert, what do they eat?

 

Rice, rice and more rice.

 

I was thinking goat might be a little large.

 

chickens are plenty.

 

They don't send scantily clad gerbil girls out a few hundred yards.

 

They have cars made of gold and their women have curtains covering their faces.

 

can they kick a rock?

 

nothing on this summer but baseball. happy to see some soccer instead. only watching a few teams.

 

It adds to the summer.

 

hell yeah. I like seeing the world's best on display. yeah the flopping is bad, but to see the skill of many of these players is awesome !

wow - ref caught accepting money. he resigns thankfully. this whole thing is rigged.

 

So easy to throw a soccer game.

 

red card or yellow card, how much?

 

Red inside the box $2500
Red outside the box $750
Yellow $250

 

I would probably add a couple of zeroes. Don't ask me how to spell that in loonieville.

 

It's Africa...
