I think I’m going to be a professional soccer handicapper.

3-0 today on main bets [unders in the early games, over in the late game]
BUT...gave most of it back on:
0-2 on side bets [props on # of corners]
stupid!

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

not many soccer matchups live up to the big hype it gets.
Spain/Portugal did.

 

[Foggy14]

Yeah, that was a good one.

As much as I can't stand Cristiano Ronaldo, that third goal was a work of art.

Now that second goal ... did somebody threaten de Gea's family? Jeez, Brad Guzan would have stopped that one.

Loved the Nacho goal, too.

yeah that goal by Nacho was something else.
ooof on that 2nd goal by Rinaldo. I would of stopped that. maybe.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Good start to the day, but this official is going to be looking over his shoulder for machine assistance the rest of the match.

 

[Fire Tortorella]

Still not impressed with France. I see the names in the line up, but their play against Australia (and even the US in the tune-up friendly) leaves a lot to be desired.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Totally fearless

These "Sorry you're not in the World Cup USA, but you should bandwagon this country!" commercials are f***ing garbage.

They are horrendous, and I'm surprised no one has been "offended" by them yet. I recognize the one actress who is supposed to be Icelandic from American productions and she's just spewing a daft Icelandic stereotype Embarrassing.

Here’s my daily “I hate Alexi Lalas” post

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Unbelievable

 

[Cody Webster]

What a save!!! f*** Messi

 

[FLYguy3911]

Huge stop.

 

[Fire Tortorella]

Good save but not a good penalty taken.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Yeah, it was a bad shot. Too far in from the post, terrible height.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

That's a mortal lock penalty, but his playacting cost him. Good.

Honestly don't know...could they not award both, kind of like they do in hockey for tripping/embellishment? Would be a penalty and a yellow to the Argentina player.

Not really, or if they could, I have never seen them do it - it's one or the other. He missed the ball and made enough contact with his leg - you can't do that in the box.

 

[Fire Tortorella]

All of a sudden nothing is a foul.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

THAT save was a beauty.

 

[Fire Tortorella]

Iceland with the ol' 7-2-1 to close the game out.

 

[Cody Webster]

Talk about a Hakshell lol

Iceland doing what they need to do to hang on

 

[Fire Tortorella]

OK, I like soccer a lot, but I have to laugh at thatlast foul. Someone steps on someone else and both players jump on the ground clutching the top of their foot

 

[Cody Webster]

Iceland!!!!!
