IsthatyouJohnWayne 0 Posted June 13, 2002 yes the Mexico -Italy game was great , Mexico put up a great performance (except for the last 5 minutes in which i laughed my buttocks) So Denoir- your beloved Croatia are out eh? The ones who were going to win the world cup and show up all us 'conservatives' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Croatia came in third last WC and they were at the top of the qualifications. After the game with Italy I was sure that they would win against Ecuador. My bad. As you can see any logic in this WC is wasted Well, who cares anyway. Sweden is going to win the gold, and that is all that matters! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IsthatyouJohnWayne 0 Posted June 13, 2002 Actually i must agree with you there, not the last part  but its the most interesting world cup i remember seeing, noone really knows whos going to win i really have little idea whats going to happen even England could win! (but not if they become one of the favourites) but i predict that England go down to Denmark fight back late in the game but not make it that way either im proved right or ENGLAND WIN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That gives Denmark the obvious advantage in this WC So, now we have seen the gold medallist France go home and bronze medallist Croatia go home. Will we se silver medallist Brazil getting their asses kicked home too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

second_draw 0 Posted June 14, 2002 What were the mafia doing when they picked the winners this wc? Was the entire mafia on drugs or something? They even paid the linesman to disqualify their own teams goals in the italy vs. crotia match! Something is really weird with this world cup. All the major teams (well, most) have dropped out.

Guest Posted June 14, 2002 WORLD CUP LOGIC Brazil last won the World Cup in 1994. Before that they won it in 1970. Add 1970 and 1994, it equals 3964. Argentina last won the World Cup in 1986. Before that they won it in 1978. Add 1978 and 1986, it equals 3964. Germany last won in 1990. Before that they won in 1974. Add 1990 and 1974, it equals 3964. So going by this logic, The winner of the 2002 World Cup is the same as ... A total 3964 - Year 2002 = Year 1962 World Cup. That makes it Brazil again ... who won the 1962 World Cup.. Swedish fans too have reason to rejoice : Sweden has never won the world cup so we'll probably win it in Year 3964! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted June 14, 2002 Portugal - Korea 0 -1 USA - Poland 1 - 3 Once again this WC has followed it's logic consistently. Everybody though that Portugal would win. Everybody assumed that USA would win, since Poland has played so bad until today.

IsthatyouJohnWayne 0 Posted June 14, 2002 "Uhm, does the names of Germany and England ring a bell?" Shut up im trying to obey Denoirs Law! (and if Germany win i will declare war on Albert Schweizer) COME ON DENMARK! YOURE BOUND TO WIN, ENGLAND ARE TOO DISORGANISED . Denamark are a solid team with decent strikers, theyll catch England off guard GO DENMARK- in this unpredictable world cup they MUST be the favourites! And the Danish flag is a thousand times better than England Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 14, 2002 Ok, I should have added "on a match-to-match basis". So if Italy and Taiwan would play, Taiwan would win as long as you didn't think that Taiwan would win, because then Italy would win. Of course if you assume that Italy would win because you thought that Taiwan would win, then Taiwan would win since you actually thought that Italy would win. In short: The law is valid as long as you don't follow the law Edit: ITYJW: Your little stunt won't work, since you are making your assumption based on denoir's law. The fact is that if you change the side who you think will win because of denoir's law, then it is in vain. Denoir's law includes denoir's law. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IsthatyouJohnWayne 0 Posted June 14, 2002 NOT if i can TRULY bring myself to believe that Denmark REALLY WILL WIN. If i have absolute belief and end up supporting Denmark as i have now,if i disown England from now on as my team. therefore i assume that Denmark will win because i believe they really are the best team and most likely to go through. ENGLAND WILL NOT WIN DUE TO DENOIRS LAW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
