The 2014 Fifa World Cup Brazil Prediction thread

Belgium are the most domesticated wildcards in history

[TBM]

Hang on, so you're predicting that Belgium will surprise you?

Yes, hence the term "Surprise package"

[Ouroboros]

Yeah.

Having predicted them to be your "surprise package," will you be surprised if they don't surprise you?

[TBM]

Yeah.

Having predicted them to be your "surprise package," will you be surprised if they don't surprise you?

I think they will lose in the group stages tbh

To be fair, that would be very surprising.

Making them a surprise package?

[Ouroboros]

Not to me, because that's exactly what I expect.

[TBM]

So if they win it, they will surprise you?

[Ouroboros]

I would be, quite literally, surprised.

Surprise package - Belgium

[Ouroboros]

Aha.

So a surprise package is just a team you don't think will win the world cup.

Surprise package: Honduras.

[Ouroboros]

This is the best thread on the forum today.

[Ouroboros]

What day?

[TBM]

Aha.

[Pepe the Horseman]

The postman keeps leaving my packages in the recycling bin. Wtf is that all about?

[Royal Ginger]

Got Switzerland in the sweeps at work.

We're playing with prizes for:

Overall Win
Most yellow cards
Most goals conceded
Earliest red card
Earliest own-goal

That's a fiver i'll never see again.

[St. Brynjar]

I got Spain & Mexico for mine. Pretty pleased since Iran/Russia and Costa Rica/Bosnia were drawn for others.
