World Cup Time


Tonight I am sitting on the couch with my husband, all our portable devices are close at hand, making our selections for not 1 but 2 World Cup pools. Two years ago I became THE CHAMPION of the BilBo Soccer Pool. I made very wise and cleaver guesses and became the winner of our Euro 08 pool. This year I plan to do the same. So as Andy sits here researching the rankings of each team, I will quickly gaze and then go with my gut.

These are the teams I have chosen to advance:

Group A
South Africa
Mexico
Uruguy
France

Group B
Argentina
Nigeria
Korea
Greece

Group C
England
USA
Algeria
Slovenia

Group D
Germany
Australia
Serbia
Ghana

Group E
Netherlands
Denmark
Japan
Cameroon

Group F
Italy
Paraguay
New Zealand
Slovakia

Group G
Brazil
Korea
Cote d'Ivoire
Portugal

Group H
Spain
Switzerland
Honduras
Chilie

This is as far as the first pool takes me. Next I had to put it all together in the 1st BilBo World Cup pool. A trophy and treats are on the line again. I have given Spain the World Cup trophy in my pool. Sadly I could not ignore the odds and recent injuries to the Portugal line up. Still I will wear my scarf and socks with pride. Go Portugal. See you soon on the Bachelorette..hehe. P.S. Unfortunately we are not flying to Portugal this summer but we are flying out east....stay tuned for our travel plans. We may just be stopping at a place near you......hmmmm. Maybe it should be a surprise???
