UPDATED LEADERBOARD - Following Thursday's matches

Ircknewskool - 14 points
DB - 14 points
Maizeandblue15 - 13 points
Jxtuoleafs - 13 points
Sep - 13 points
Rim Touching - 12 points
Bama - 12 points
TJFOR3 - 12 points
Keeper - 11 points
DaBears54 - 10 points
Usmaman - 10 points

Things are finally starting to space out with Irk and DB up ahead by 4 points now over last place. However, with perfect days, Sep and I have now moved into a close second.

Maize, if you had only gotten your picks in on time...you had Ecuador chosen, but I couldn't give you that point cause you were late. That loss of 1 point has left you in second for tonight.

Things are getting interesting though, and Usma, DaBears...those points can all be made up in the brackets, where the real points are won and lost.

Just remember to have all your picks in on time for every game...so you don't lose out on any points.

Friday's picks...good luck to all as we're almost at the halfway mark of the opening round.

[Ircknewskool]

ah I cant lose any ground to the leaders.

[Maize]

Not a very eventful day for the picks. Only movement at the top could happen if DB calls the draw in the Netherlands Ivory Coast game.

[JacktheRipper]

2-0 Holland right now.

Also I was rooting for the Americans, but I think I'm changing my support to Brazil. For the reason below.



*Edit: Spellchecker working for anyone else?

[Colossus Burgers]

Butterface.

[JacktheRipper]

Somebody has some high standards.

[Colossus Burgers]

I just have a thing for girls that don't look like the devil.

[JacktheRipper]

Mexico and Angola puts together a 0-0 draw.

And I still like that gal from Brazil. ;D

[Keeper]

Bstn is crazy.

Angola is proving everyone wrong.

I'm also going to be missing in action tomorrow night most likely due to a baseball tourney (well, if we lose, I'll be home). Here are my picks for Sunday, but y'all don't need to post yours...I have them in my inbox. If you haven't sent em in...get 'em in on time and they'll count.

So the next leaderboard update will be two days from now more than likely. Good luck guys.

GHANA!

AND I ACTUALLY PICKED AGAINST THEM!

OH MY GOD I'M STUPID!

[sep]

Peter Check certainly proved to me he is the best keeper in the world today. All those shots he stopped, amazing only 2 went through. Ghana shoulda had 4 maybe 5 or so.

[JacktheRipper]

I now just like to post in this thread for the gal from Brazil at the top. ;D

Anyway, Ghana put forth one hell of a game. Makes things a lot more interesting, especally if the US can play with their heads out of their asses.

[Keeper]

Makes things more interesting, but realistically, not better for the US.

It would've been better for the Czech's to have killed Ghana.

[sep]

Wow..

Own goal.. to red card!

[Terps]

This stuff is obv. fixed. How did they give Mastroeni(sp?) a red!? The tackle was late, definitely worth a yellow, but not a red. I hope the US can pull this out, but I don't know. None of their players have scored a goal yet.

[JacktheRipper]

I'm not going to say what I think about this red card, there are rules on here against that.

I just want to see another goal for the USA and get a win.
