World Cup 2014 (really)

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

My guess is that Italy eventually takes out Spain in the finals.

Generally speaking, when the World Cup is held in Europe, European teams win. When it's held in South America or even Mexico (and the one time it was held in the states) South American teams win.

But good guess though.

My guess is Brazil - Argentina final, Brazil loses and Rio riots.

I consulted the local Wicans (it being Friday the 13th & Full Moon Fever! :D ) and they all said Germany over Brasil!

Spain's goalie looking like playoff Bobby Lou. At least he didn't cry.

Looks like the wetbacks have their work cut out for them.

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.
